WHAT DOES TRANSPARENCY IN CYBERSECURITY REALLY MEAN?
Transparency in cybersecurity refers to the openness and clarity with which organizations communicate their security practices, policies, and incidents to stakeholders. It involves sharing information about security measures, data breaches, and how data is handled, with the aim of building trust and fostering collaboration to improve overall security.Here are some key points :
In my opinin cybersecurity transparency is about being open and honest about cybersecurity risks, incidents, and the measures an organisation takes to protect itself. This includes:
- Disclosing breaches: Promptly and transparently informing customers, stakeholders, and regulators when a security incident has occurred and the potential impact.
- Sharing best practices: Proactively sharing information about cybersecurity strategies, tools, and lessons learned with the wider community to raise the collective security bar.
- Vulnerability disclosure: Collaborating with security researchers and providing processes for responsibly reporting and mitigating software vulnerabilities.
- Clear communication: Avoiding jargon and explaining cybersecurity concepts in ways that non-technical stakeholders can understand.”
