The quantum threat isn’t theoretical—it’s operational. Quantum computing is rapidly shifting from research to reality, forcing chief information security officers (CISOs) to rethink cryptography, risk management and long-term data protection. In a previous post, I explained the quantum challenge. Recently, we explored why quantum readiness is not optional. Now, it’s time for action.

In this article Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) face the daunting task of balancing technical cybersecurity risks with the financial realities of their organization. One critical component in this balancing act is the use of vulnerability scoring systems, in particular, the CVSS score. This article provides a detailed guide on how to translate CVSS scores into tangible financial impact estimates using proven methods of risk quantification.

As CISOs, you’ve invested heavily in desktop security, built out Zero Trust architectures, and hardened your perimeter. But there’s a critical gap many are still leaving exposed: mobile devices and the human behind the screen. In a world where your workforce runs on smartphones, overlooking mobile security is no longer an option.

What does “secure by default” really mean—and is it enough? In this episode of CyberArk’s Security Matters, host David Puner sits down with Scott Barronton, Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) at Diebold Nixdorf, to explore the often-overlooked risks of cloud default settings and how assumptions can lead to vulnerabilities.
