We've all read the cybersecurity horror stories: a prominent company exposes the private information of their customers only to scramble after the fact to apologize and safeguard the data. Cybersecurity is often an afterthought, a much lower priority than profit--until a data breach threatens the bottom line anyway.
In The Cyber-Elephant in the Boardroom, data security expert and CEO Mathieu Gorge, along with a host of guests, shows why protecting a company's data should be top of mind for C-suites and corporate boards. With the innovative 5 Pillars of Security Framework, any C-level executive can understand their organization's cyber risk and the steps they need to take to protect their information. There's a cyber-elephant in the boardroom and it needs to be addressed!

Praise For The Cyber-Elephant In The Boardroom
"Mathieu has laid out a very simple methodology to ensure that board members, C-suite, and security people can communicate in the same business language about security matters. Having worked with hundreds of CSOs myself, I'm convinced that the 5 Pillars of Security Framework is a very effective, simple methodology that anyone can use to strategize cybersecurity and cyber-accountability efforts. I'd highly recommend using it as a key benchmark."-Ira Winkler, CISSP, author of You Can Stop Stupid CISO, Skyline Technology Systems "Cyber-accountability is everyone's responsibility from the board of directors and C-suite down to all staff. It is a collective duty to ensure that people, data, and systems are kept safe. The Cyber-Elephant in the Boardroom is a must-read that makes it simple for decision makers to drive accountability across the enterprise. Mathieu's insight and the 5 Pillars of Security Framework clearly show the way toward good cyber hygiene!"
-Olivier Cadic, Sénateur des Français établis hors de France French Senator "The Cyber-Elephant in the Boardroom is an important addition to any CISO's and CIO's library. It provides practical and important guidance on how to address the current risk landscape. As someone who has studied and researched the security threats for organizations, Mathieu's 5 Pillars of Security Framework are key to achieving a strong cybersecurity posture."
