As the liability for cybersecurity breaches increasingly shifts towards individuals, CISOs face the dual challenge of managing cyber risks while protecting themselves from personal legal repercussions.
Legislators and regulators are no longer content with corporate fines; they are seeking to hold CISOs personally accountable for cybersecurity failures, dramatically increasing their risk.
The new regulations, such as NIS2, empower regulators to pursue individuals—specifically CISOs—directly for compliance failures, blurring the lines between corporate liability and personal accountability.
A significant trend in cybersecurity is the growing emphasis on personal liability for leadership roles, particularly CISOs, as stakeholders demand more stringent accountability in data protection.
