Top Seven Articles for Q1 2018

As many of you know, I've been writing for IBM's SecurityIntelligence.com blog for nearly three years now. It's been an amazing journey, and I am very thankful to the IBM Security team and the Skyword folks for their support of my article ideas and for creating a writing environment in which authors feel valued and supported. As I get near the three year milestone, I wanted to share an update of the most read articles for the Q1 2018.

In descending order of page views, here are the seven most-read articles based on readership stats for the past three months:

1. Where the CISO Should Sit on the Security Org Chart and Why It Matters
2. Understanding the COSO 2017 Enterprise Risk Management Framework, Part 1: An Introduction
3. SEC Releases Updated Guidance For Cybersecurity Disclosure
4. Five New Year's Resolutions to Help CISOs Improve Enterprise Security in 2018
5. When It Comes to Cyber Risks, 2018 Is No Time to Play Games
6. Putting the 'I' in CISO: Why the Security Leader Must Become an Influencer
7. Highlights From the World Economic Forum's 'Global Risks Report 2018'

Note: Once I've officially passed the three year milestone, I'll share a longer update about my journey and the articles that have resonated the most with readers.
