Sharing a full, specific deep-dive report on cybersecurity or IT disruption risks might be challenging due to sensitive information and company specifics. However, I can offer alternative approaches and resources to effectively communicate these critical issues to your Board:

Executive Summary & Tailored Insights: Instead of a full report, create a concise executive summary highlighting key findings, potential disruptions, and recommended actions. Tailor the insights to resonate with the Board's specific concerns and priorities.

Scenario-Based Approach: Present real-world cybersecurity incidents or IT disruptions relevant to your industry and their financial/operational impact. This personalizes the risks and emphasizes the need for proactive measures.

Data-Driven Storytelling: Leverage charts, graphs, and statistics to visually illustrate the potential losses and costs associated with cyberattacks or IT outages. Factual data adds credibility and urgency to your message.

Invite External Experts: Consider bringing in cybersecurity or IT disruption specialists to deliver a presentation or answer Board questions directly. Their expertise can lend further weight to your concerns.

The key is to tailor your message to the Board's level of understanding and focus on the business impact of these risks. By presenting clear, concise, and actionable information, you can encourage them to prioritize cybersecurity and IT resilience within your organization.

No, but.... - You must have good security and privacy policies in place for ChatGPT (and other GenAI apps). My organization has policies and meaningful ways to enforce those policies and procedures for staff.46%

No - Bans simply don't work. Even without policies, this action hurts innovation and sends the wrong message to staff and the world about our organization.19%

I'm not sure. This action by Maine makes me think. Let me get back to you in a few weeks (or months).4%
