Cyber risk is no longer a technical issue—it’s a boardroom issue. At the ET CISO Annual Conclave 2025, Jagdish Mahapatra, Managing Director, Google Cloud Security, JAPAC urged leaders to reframe how they communicate, measure, and master cyber risk across cloud, intelligence, and operations. His message was sharp: eliminating risk is impossible—but reducing and managing it is a strategic imperative. That means: - Speaking the language of the CEO and CFO, not just security teams. - Building muscle memory through practice, just like training for a video game—because in security, practice saves businesses. - Embracing AI-powered agents as collaborators in detection, investigation, and remediation—scaling faster than human teams alone. - Creating a security-first culture where every employee understands their role in safeguarding what matters most. 💡 The takeaway: cybersecurity must move beyond defense to become an enabler of resilience, trust, and business growth in the AI era.
