Communicating Cybersecurity ROI to Your CFO

Utilize reputable threat reports and case studies from businesses within the same industry. This allows your CFO to not only see the potential risk of what could happen by not implementing a security solution but also provides them with a framework of knowledge about cybersecurity as a whole.

CFOs understand risk and tradeoffs well, so present your security plan in that light. Rank your risk areas and clearly (in a non-jargon way) explain the impact of the risk area on the company, the coverage, and how the investment will help mitigate the risk.
