Join us as we continued our Cyber Glass – Stories from the Front Lines webinar series for a timely discussion on cyber governance, risk, and resilience, featuring strategic insights from Bill Hardin, Vice President and Practice Leader at Charles River Associates, and Greg Hedges, CEO and President of the National Association of Corporate Directors, Chicago Chapter.
In this 20-minute Q&A session, we explored how boards and leadership teams could better understand, quantify, and respond to evolving cyber risks—from ransomware and social engineering to AI governance and enterprise-wide preparedness.
- Boards needed to translate cyber risk into financial terms—moving beyond dashboards to quantify potential business impact and exposure
- Ransomware and extortion were increasing in scale, reinforcing the need for organizations to treat incidents as governance decisions, not just technical events
- Effective response depended on preparation—organizations that established decision frameworks and rehearsed scenarios were better positioned during a crisis
- AI introduced new layers of risk across the enterprise, requiring governance at the use-case level rather than reliance on high-level policies
- Leading organizations prioritized role-based training and executive alignment to ensure faster, more coordinated decision-making during incident
Watch the webinar to gain practical, board-level insights into how organizations could strengthen governance, improve risk visibility, and build more resilient response strategies in an increasingly complex threat landscape.
