"CISOs need to have a seat at the boardroom, cyber security needs to be a board-level discussion."  But first, let's back track... for our #CyberRiskLeaders to have confidence in playing a more active role and presence in the boardroom, we need to first have a better understanding of the perspectives from the boardroom.  

In this episode of Cyber Risk Meetup's Mega #CSuite #virtual series #Board Edition, we met with our featured #BoardDirectors Cassandra Crowe, and Ale Vendramin and discussed the following topics:

 - Differing roles and responsibilities of the Board VS. Executives 

- The mindset pivot from Management to Board Directing 

- What we can all learn from effective board directorship 

- The benefits of greater diversity and inclusion across boards

In this 'Cyber Risk Leaders' Tell All - the second edition of the Global Virtual Book Club, we heard from our featured guests: Matthew Rosenquist, CISO at Eclipz.io Inc in California, Jonathan Hiroshi Rossi, Founder of CJK Group, based in Los Angeles, co-host Carmen Marsh (CEO of Inteligenca, California) together with the author of 'Cyber Risk Leaders', Shamane Tan, based in Sydney, Australia.

AI is a tremendously powerful tool that is evolving at a ridiculous rate and being leveraged by both cyber attackers and defenders. It will radically change the #cybersecurity strategies that protect our digital world. We covered AI's impact on Cyber Security Strategy and also Jonathan's recent experience in organising 10x Cybersecurity Awareness Tour where 30 countries across the world participated. In this episode, we explored the role of awareness and the creative process that brings it all together in this mission of driving change.
