WHY CISOs FAIL 2nd EDITION IS HERE!
In this new edition, Barak revisits the themes from his 2017 sleeper hit Why CISOs Fail.
Barak adds 7 new half-chapters, expanding the original work and adding deeper discussions of essential topics such as vulnerability and incident management, while sprinkling new, real-life stories from his long and accomplished career as thought leader and visionary in the information security field. He ends the book with two new suggestions on how to reconsider security management, align it better with business needs, and hopefully eliminate some of the fail.
An out-of-the-mainstream, counterculture thinker in the world of security, Barak’s rich background and unusual approach to the field come forth in this book in vivid color and detail, allowing the reader to gain insights when faced with similar issues themselves or within their organizations.
Lost in translation. Why the biggest challenge in today's business environment could be the breakdown in communications between the security team and the board.

Lovely chat with Raj Umadas about this question that, from experience, I can state unequivocally is on many people’s minds.
The session was sponsored by the ever gracious Wallarm, even though we didn’t talk about them or their products at all. Good on them.
