Overview
Board oversight is critical in the management of cybersecurity as a whole, but especially for ransomware, since the increase in attacks year-over-year is up as much as 715% according to a study by Cyber Florida at the University of South Florida. If it isn’t already, cybersecurity should be on your board agenda at every meeting. As a starting point, the board needs to understand the layers of defense available to mitigate ransomware risk and design their responses to the threats accordingly.
