As the pandemic recedes and businesses aggressively relaunch cross-border trade and expansion, leaders are returning to a very different world – a world in which security risk management must play a larger role than ever before. Seerist CEO Jim Brooks reminds us that the world we live in is one full of rapid social and technological change, including a rise in cybersecurity threats, a rising tide of misinformation, and seemingly constant geopolitical instability. The result is the most volatile and complex environment for international businesses in decades. Therefore, leaders must prioritize and manage security risk in new and more strategic ways.
Companies who will be able succeed in their security risk management strategy throughout 2023 and beyond are those who understand where to prioritize security and associated investments. The ones that fall behind will be those who aren’t prioritizing tech innovations, or assume their previous security problems mean they’re already adequately protected or unlikely to be affected by future ones.
CEOs and board members have tended to avoid playing an active role in risk management policies in the past, their governance and duty-of-care responsibilities – coupled with rising global risks – mean they should be driving the adoption of better practices and systems from above.
While it can be intimidating for the C-suite to immerse themselves in the security arena and security risk management, if they are leveraging the right tools and third-party partners, it doesn’t have to be overly time consuming. The right partner will offer the technology that can both speed your decision-making and help you determine threat vectors, allowing you to get ahead of the turmoil. What unrest is on the horizon? Who’s behind the unrest? What is their motivation? Better yet is when your partner also offers a team of experts to help you contextualize and verify this information.
