Ohio State University CISO Helen Patton Explains How CISOs Actually Spend Their Time
In a recent post on Medium, Ohio State University CISO and NTSC Board Member Helen Patton points out a dissonance between areas noted by many cybersecurity mind maps and the actual time CISOs spend in each area. As she says in her post, “As a CISO trying to encourage the organization to take security seriously, to understand the strategic business value of a well-funded security program, and to ensure security is a partner involved in making decisions and not simply responding to decisions, these are not the topics I delve into day after day. Nope, I’m working in the spaces adjacent to security, and trying to wrap it all in a narrative which articulates my vision for security in the enterprise.”
