Abstract
The previous chapter laid the groundwork for the habits that one needs to employ to achieve security. In the next two chapters, we are now going to focus on advice for board-level leadership on how to achieve a better state of cybersecurity. In this chapter, we will focus on advice for boards of directors and the types of questions to ask. The following chapter focuses on advice for technology and security professionals that present to boards on the topic of cybersecurity. We encourage both boards and technology/security professionals to read both these chapters so that they know what they should expect of each other.
