Gartner on a Business Approach to Cybersecurity
January 10, 2025
In case you’ve missed the announcement, according to Gartner: Cybersecurity is a business issue, not a technical one, according to 88% of boards of directors surveyed.
In fact, cybersecurity is now the number one spend item on the technology investment list. Cybersecurity must be treated as a business decision. Organizations must stop investing in security tools and start investing in outcomes. Treating cybersecurity as a business decision requires aligning Protection Levels Agreements (PLA) with desired business outcomes to drive business-led cybersecurity investment. CIOs and senior IT executives must be able to communicate the risks, value and cost of cybersecurity to their board of directors.
BigFix is the first and only solution currently in the market that has the PLA feature and capability built into the Endpoint Vulnerability Management module!
The HCL BigFix announcement made in November 2022 at the Global CIO event in Barcelona, the video, “BigFix CyberFOCUS Analytics and PLA’s”, is now available to view here. The Gartner webinar, “Treat Cybersecurity as a Business Investment for Better Outcomes”, is now available to view on demand, by clicking here.
