The CISO role is evolving to include broader responsibilities and higher levels of accountability

The CISO role is shifting towards more strategic executive responsibilities, as observed by 2024 Hall of Fame inductees like GE Vernova's Teresa Zielinski and Walmart's Jerry Geisler. The role has evolved from its traditional technical roots to encompass risk management, resiliency, compliance, and privacy, with an emphasis on proactive business enablement. CISOs are increasingly getting integrated into top-level enterprise leadership, with cybersecurity duties merging with risk and resiliency responsibilities

The evolving tech landscape, advancements in AI, generative AI, quantum computing, and expanding security regulations are propelling the transformation of the CISO role, driving the need for CISOs to be technically astute while understanding cybersecurity operations and best practices. ```
