As the role of the CISO continues to grow in importance and gain more responsibility, many cybersecurity practitioners may wonder if they have what it takes to be successful in the role.
Technical expertise and experience are obviously huge assets. An effective CISO has the ability to evaluate and select security technology, communicate with technical staff and make crucial decisions about security infrastructure and architecture. Most already have experience leading and managing people, have established relationships with relevant stakeholders inside the organization and have lived through crisis situations. They know how to make quick decisions and drive change in the organization.
Advisory and professional services giant PwC UK is partnering with security firm ReversingLabs to develop a third-party risk management (TPRM) platform to help businesses address software supply chain security risks. Alongside ReversingLabs, the firm aims to help customers modernize traditional TPRM programs to better suit the modern software supply chain, operationalizing detection and mitigation of threats inherent in third-party software. Software supply chain risks pose complex and ongoing challenges for businesses across the globe.
