💡 On Nexus, Mike Rogers, CISO and Director Information Security and Compliance at Hormel Foods, and Corey Elinburg, SVP and the Chief Information Security Officer for CommonSpirit Health, discuss the value of a business impact assessment (BIA) to #cybersecurity programs. #BIA is the essential methodology that enables organizations to evaluate the potential consequences of security breaches and make informed decisions on #RiskReduction. It also helps security leaders align cybersecurity programs with the overall business. Watch here: https://nexusconnect.io/videos/mike-rogers-and-corey-elinburg-on-the-value-of-business-impact-assessments #Nexus24
