Cyber security has evolved over the last several years, shifting from a compliance-driven mandate to being recognized as critical to business continuity and profitability. Now CEOs, boards of directors and shareholders not only want to understand the relevance of security, but also ask their IT leadership to demonstrate its value and overall contribution to the business.

For CIOs and CISOs tasked to respond, security validation is an impactful way to both attain empiric evidence that security controls are working as they should and report to the CFO office and business leadership that the
company is achieving and improving its accepted level of risk.
