As a community, an industry and as the human race, we have come so far over the last century in improving our ethics towards each other and especially to those who do not fit a ‘norm.’ However, we can never stop improving, learning and ultimately improving the lives of others through what is ultimately kindness and taking an extra thought. This is not a blame game, or to highlight what anyone is doing wrong, but to instead build a foundation of understanding, with a hope that this time next year, there will be even more positive stories of change to share.

Unless you are looking to “sell” cybersecurity internally to leadership, the process of maturing cybersecurity within an organization is not about “good-better-best” or “silver-gold-platinum.” Rather, the organization must understand its current level of maturity, assess the risks to the business objectives and decide how to reach the state of maturity necessary to achieve and exceed the business objectives. The last part requires using some framework around cybersecurity maturity, preferably.
