Summary

CISO priorities in 2024 include regulatory obligations due to increasing government oversight and AI policy, addressing burnout caused by the immense burden of potential breaches, closing the cybersecurity skills gap with the adoption of GenAI technologies, focusing on security outcomes rather than traditional security silos and products, taking a risk-driven approach to security alongside compliance, prioritizing professional development to stay sharp on technical skills, managing legal exposure through D&O insurance, and reducing cyber insurance premiums by demonstrating proactive security risk management. These priorities reflect the evolving landscape of cybersecurity challenges and the need for CISOs to adapt their strategies to address them.
