“Only 19 percent of respondents to our recent survey believe their boards possess a high level of knowledge about cybersecurity,” said Peter Gleason, NACD president and CEO. “In the current environment, board members must be able to demonstrate their commitment to providing effective cyber-risk oversight. We’re pleased to offer a portfolio of resources that will enhance directors’ cyber leadership.”
