Scenario: An organization has recently appointed a CISO.

 Broader Influence Beyond IT

A key responsibility of the CISO is to engage with leaders across the organization, such as HR, finance, and operations, to integrate security into all business processes.

Focusing solely on IT limits the ability to address enterprise-wide risks and align security with business goals.

 Why Not Other Options?

A. Lack of identification of technology stakeholders: Stakeholders within IT are identified but influence is lacking outside IT.

B. Lack of business continuity: Related but not directly linked to the inability to advance the agenda.

D. Lack of awareness program: Important but not the core issue in this scenario.

 EC-Council References

Stresses the importance of building relationships and influencing stakeholders at all levels for effective security leadership.
