Non-technical stakeholders resist cybersecurity protocols. How will you gain their support?
Gaining the support of non-technical stakeholders for cybersecurity protocols can often be challenging. These stakeholders may see such measures as inconvenient, costly, or simply beyond their understanding. However, it's crucial to emphasize the importance of cybersecurity in protecting the company's assets, reputation, and legal standing. By framing the conversation around risk management and business continuity, you can make cybersecurity relevant to their interests. Engaging them with clear explanations, demonstrations of potential threats, and discussions about the consequences of security breaches can help bridge the gap between technical and non-technical perspectives.
