About Programme

This programme is for board directors from a single organisation. It will help them navigate the cybersecurity landscape and improve cyber risk governance.

Delivered in partnership between Oxford Saïd and ISTARI , a Temasek-founded global cybersecurity firm. The programme leverages the CEO Report on Cyber Resilience ; a first-of-its-kind study about cyber risk leadership.

Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in the US now requires companies to describe the processes by which the board is informed of cyber risks. But technology and cybersecurity are often gaps in the skills matrix of boards and 98.2% of Standard & Poor's (S&P) board directors do not have expertise with cybersecurity, according to research from The Wall Street Journal .

Programme Content

Structure

Part 1 - Governance assessment

We conduct 60-minute, structured interviews with each member of the board, the CEO and CISO. We focus on the boards experience with cybersecurity, the governance processes, committee structures, and the cybersecurity charter and programme from a governance perspective.

Part 2 Board briefing

At a board meeting we will lead a discussion of the key findings from our governance analysis. We will also share best practices and the principles of good cyber risk oversight.

You will also hear from a senior business executive who will tell the story of a serious cyberattack.

Part 3 Debrief

The board will receive a key findings report based on the interview findings and discussion during the board meeting.

We offer debrief conversations with each board member and follow-up check-ins after 6 months. The board continues to have access to a cyber advisor from ISTARIs network of 3500 professionals. To satisfy any regulatory requirements, we provide an optional certificate of completion

from Saïd Business School, Oxford University.
