UK boards are showing less concern about cyber-risk, according to a study from Proofpoint. Just 44% of UK board members are concerned about cybersecurity risk, compared to 73% of global board members. Poor communication between board members and their CISOs may be contributing to this disparity. UK directors ranked malware, cloud account compromise, and ransomware as their top concerns, while CISOs chose email fraud/BEC, insider threat, and cloud account compromise. It is important for boards to invest in improving preparedness and organizational resilience. #CyberRisk #BoardPerspective #CISOAlignment
