2 Target Cyber Attack & Phases 9 Proposals for Next Step 14 Contribution
As per my opinion :
CEO’s responsibility is to inform customers about the data breach because the CEO being the head of the company should take
accountability and responsibility of the data breach and it in fact reinstates the importance of the issue when a person of that stature
makes an announcement as it is heard seriously by everyone.
Would most definitely agree that CEO is the right person in the company to make an announcement to its customers since there is
lot of sensitive information that is already jeopardized and if the CEO informs the customer, the least they would think is that CEO
was accountable enough to take responsibility and ownership of the issue at hand and any assurance given.
CEO would at least mitigate the anger and anxiety that the customer would have. Moreover if I was the CEO, I would have some
counter actions in place as such incidents can occur to any company as no company is 100% hack proof.
Also CEO is the one who makes decisions and approves any financial decisions related to security, he/she should also be involved
in processes to determine the security partners and address cyber security threats.
