CISO

A Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) is the executive responsible for overseeing an organization's information security strategy, risk management, and cybersecurity infrastructure. In the context of AI governance, the CISO plays a critical role in ensuring that AI systems meet security standards, protecting against adversarial attacks and model theft, and integrating AI security requirements into enterprise-wide compliance frameworks. CISOs are increasingly central to AI governance decisions because they must balance innovation with the security and integrity risks that AI systems introduce to organizational data and infrastructure.
