CISOs bring a perspective the ELT needs. They understand where the real risks live in modern cloud architectures. They know how to embed security into innovation from the start, not after the fact. And they’re key to building the kind of trust that sets companies apart. If your CISO isn’t in the room when strategic decisions are made, it’s time to ask why.
