According to a new report from cybersecurity company Radware, company executives now recognize cybersecurity as a key business driver as demonstrated by the increasing amount of attention and effort they’re dedicated to the topic. Radware reported that 98 percent of executives claim some management responsibility for cybersecurity, with 72 percent indicating that information security is an agenda item for every board meeting. At the same time, customers want to understand what companies have done to secure their products and services, and 75 percent of executives reported that security is a key part of their marketing messages. While the C-Suite has increased its focus on cybersecurity efforts, Radware observes that companies still have a long way to go to protect themselves. A majority (70 percent) of executives surveyed in North America and Europe report their company experienced a cyberattack in the prior twelve months.
