Episode 3

Going Above and Beyond the Mandated Checklist

When top management proactively takes every possible precaution to protect sensitive data because it is the right thing to do and not because there is a legislative requirement, that’s when the organization would have taken a huge step forward in earning customer confidence and trust. Tushar Sachdev, Executive Vice President, and Chief Technology Officer, KORE Wireless, is emphatic about top management’s role in creating and sustaining a proactive information security culture. In a very reflective and pragmatic discussion with Dr. Chatterjee, Mr. Sachdev, also offers guidance on how to a) get started on a path to cybersecurity readiness; b) reach a high state of cybersecurity readiness; c) get senior executive commitment to cybersecurity training, and d) select and monitor suppliers. He also talks about the importance of including cybersecurity performance metrics in performance appraisals and buying cyber insurance.
