I couldn't agree more, Amar Singh. The constant barrage of data breaches is exhausting. It's time for CISOs to take a more proactive stance, prioritize internal security, and bolster defenses against external threats. Despite significant cybersecurity investments, the rate of breaches is unacceptable. We need to see tangible results.
