Strategy for Cybersecurity, Digital Risk & Business Continuity Playbook
- Executive
- Advanced
- Template Included
A framework for setting cybersecurity investment and business continuity strategy at the level of genuine strategic risk trade-offs, connected to business impact, rather than treating it as a purely technical function's budget request.
Isn't cybersecurity strategy the CISO's job, not a broader strategic
question? The CISO owns execution and technical strategy, but the level of cybersecurity investment and risk tolerance is a genuine strategic trade-off — more security investment reduces risk but has real opportunity cost — that deserves executive and board-level strategic input, not just technical delegation.
How is business continuity different from cybersecurity specifically?
Cybersecurity is one (increasingly dominant) source of business continuity risk, but continuity planning covers a broader set of potential disruptions. This playbook treats them together because modern continuity planning is substantially shaped by cyber risk.
