Good Morning ☀️ As January comes to a close, one thing is clear: cyber risk is reaching well beyond your internal systems.
Security teams are now contending with threats buried in third-party tools and vendor relationships that often go unnoticed until something breaks. Recovery remains slow too. Many organizations still struggle to restore operations within 24 hours. And while CIOs and their CISOs are focused on ransomware, identity threats, and AI-fueled attacks, CEOs and CFOs are asking a different question: what are we actually getting for what we spend on security?
In today’s CSB, we’re diving into the biggest breaches of 2026 so far, what technology leaders are seeing on the ground, and the early trends shaping the year ahead.
THE BIGGEST CYBER BREACHES SO FAR THIS YEAR
WHAT CISOs SAW THIS MONTH
New research shows organizations are struggling to bounce back after cyber incidents, with none restoring operations within 24 hours and many facing outages that drag on for days.
A new WEF report shows CEOs are losing sleep over fraud, while CISOs are still gearing up for ransomware, highlighting a growing disconnect at the top.
As cyber threats keep piling up, more teams are realizing that hiring more people isn’t fixing the problem; figuring out which risks actually matter is.
Cybersecurity risk is increasingly coming from outside the organization, as hidden vendor dependencies become one of the biggest threats CIOs are now facing.
A new study shows that even as security budgets grow, misalignment between CISOs and CFOs on how to measure value is quietly driving up risk and slowing decisions.
