Board Cyber Resilience: Metrics That Drive Governance

🔒 Boards need concise, business-focused cyber metrics that translate technical activity into measurable resilience. The article argues that traditional SOC metrics (patch counts, blocked phishing attempts) are poor indicators of business impact and recommends focusing on financial impact, governance, operational resilience, and strategic readiness. It highlights concrete measures — average cost per incident, downtime cost per minute, MTTR, MTTD, regulatory violations, third-party risk, and residual risk — and urges boards to choose 1–2 metrics per category, set reporting cadence, and iterate until metrics drive oversight.
