How to Include Business Leaders in Cybersecurity Risk Decisions

Technical teams need business leaders to decide which risks to accept, fund, or prioritize when tradeoffs affect operations.

Checks to make

Present each risk in terms of affected service, plausible impact, evidence, options, cost, and deadline. Record the decision maker, rationale, treatment owner, and review date. Reopen decisions when the threat or business context materially changes.
