Cyber Security: 7 Essential Questions For Directors

Cyber liability, cyber security and information governance are terms that directors are becoming more aware of due to high profile data security breaches.

In an increasingly interconnected world, with the expansion of the Internet and development of the 'Internet of Things', there has been a corresponding increase in the vulnerability of information systems to attack.

Understanding the risks

In order to assist company directors in understanding their key responsibilities in the areas of cyber liability and cyber security, we have launched the Cyber Security for Directors app with the Institute of Directors in Ireland.

The app details the various types of cyber liability and cyber risks, while drawing together the key areas for directors to consider. It also outlines both proactive and reactive strategies to manage cyber security. The app is now available for both Android and iOS devices.
