Exploring how organisations can strengthen cybersecurity assurance through evidence, resilience and effective governance.
Cybersecurity has never been more heavily measured, yet significant breaches continue to occur.
Many organisations can demonstrate that controls exist, but fewer can prove those controls remain effective as technology, threats and business operations evolve.
This book explores why that gap persists and how evidence can become the foundation of modern cybersecurity assurance.
Helping organisations move from believing their cybersecurity works to proving that it does.
This is not another technical security manual or compliance guide. Drawing on more than 25 years of cybersecurity leadership experience, the book offers practical insights into strengthening assurance, governance and organisational resilience through evidence-based decision-making.
This book is written for professionals responsible for protecting organisations and managing cyber risk, including:
✓ CISOs and Security Leaders
✓ Governance, Risk and Compliance Professionals
✓ Internal Auditors
✓ Security Architects
✓ Technology Executives
✓ Board Members
✓ Why traditional assurance often provides a false sense of confidence
✓ How evidence can strengthen cybersecurity decision-making
✓ Practical ways to strengthen cybersecurity assurance and organisational resilience
✓ Better ways to communicate cyber risk to executives and boards
✓ How emerging technologies, including AI, are changing cybersecurity assurance
