Is your steering committee blind to your project’s most expensive vulnerability? 🛑
In large-scale digital transformations, treating cybersecurity as an isolated, downstream "IT issue" is no longer just bad practice, it is a catastrophic project governance failure.
Traditional project governance frames risk around predictable, linear variables (scope, schedule, budget). But cyber incidents do not behave linearly. A minor integration oversight across a third-party API tier can instantly halt a multi-million-dollar rollout at launch, invalidating your foundational project assumptions overnight.
The root problem? Key decision-makers—sponsors, executives, steering committees—negotiate critical project trade-offs in spaces where technical risk velocity is completely invisible.
I deconstruct why we must dismantle this "handled elsewhere" mindset and pull technical security metrics directly into early lifecycle project governance. If you would like to view full framework and article comment "PDF" below i will share the article PDF.
