Picture this, a large organization has been hacked, compromising the financial information of millions of people. News headlines detailing similar stories are now frequent, causing the job description of CSO to rapidly expand.

But in today’s dominantly digital world, CSOs must expand their reach to not only monitor tangible risks, but also address the uninsured risks that live in the digital world.
