Blue Lava Origin Story
Blue Lava founders Demetrios Lazarikos (Laz), Julia Tran, Jonna Melinauskas, and Andy Hoernecke join Sean Martin and Marco Ciappelii on a Their Story podcast with ITSP Magazine, to talk about their work with the security community to build a game-changing security program management platform.
Reporting Effectively to Your Key Business Stakeholders
While cybersecurity is managed by an organization’s information security team, the Board of Directors is ultimately responsible for oversight of the program and major risks. So, when this cybersecurity’s CISO needed to clearly and confidently report on its security posture and progress to the Board and other key executive stakeholders, they invested in the Blue Lava Security Program Management platform.
