Скачать или смотреть CISO's Guide to Effective Communication and Boardroom Wins

Inside the CISO playbook: communication, risk, crisis leadership, and boardroom strategy. In this episode, Prabh Nair and Sunil break down what a modern CISO actually does day to day, how to balance security with business, and how to turn chaos into clear decisions. We cover threat modeling, choosing frameworks, vulnerability prioritization with weighted context, building incident playbooks, RACI for accountability, reporting lines that work, and how to run board meetings that drive funding and trust. If you are aiming for CISO, supporting one, or interviewing for senior security roles, this is a practical masterclass.
