Is the CISO Role Broken? Rethinking Security Leadership
🧭 The article argues that the modern CISO role has become unmanageable for many practitioners and often fails to deliver meaningful, long-term change. It traces causes to short tenures, technologist backgrounds, and siloed corporate governance, and advocates splitting responsibilities by creating a senior CSO focused on business protection while returning the CISO to a technical, execution-oriented remit. The author urges CISOs to rebuild trust through demonstrable delivery rather than constant demands, and suggests this structural change will improve governance, tenure, and recruitment.
