In the Wall Street Journal's relatively new CIO Journal, editor Michael Hickins highlighted recent statements from a local Boston-area healthcare CIO, and pointed to preliminary findings in a Carnegie Mellon cyber security and corporate governance report.
In "Speak Cybersecurity Truth to Power", Hickins said:
Boards of directors are clueless when it comes to cybersecurity — and that’s a great opportunity for CIOs to prove their worth. John Halamka, the highly regarded CIO of Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston, tells CIO Journal that “cybersecurity is a great way to stay in touch with the board because there’s high visibility.”
