Good business-level view to cybersecurity and CISO role in business. It was good to read how Board of Directors, HR, General Councel, Risk Management, etc. should contribute to cyber risk management. The book can be recommended to members of Board, Executive Management and CISO's wanting to understand the business perspective of cyber security. Especially if your view of cybersecurity is really outdated and you still think it's just an IT issue.

As an IT professional but not technically-trained, I found value in this book as a primer for cyber security. It does go into detail on some areas that, since I am not familiar with, I found rather dry. However, it did help me to see the landscape and educate me as a non-cybersecurity IT employee. Each chapter is written like an essay, so the writing itself is quite technical.
