A private cybersecurity community for learning and growth 

CyberEdBoard is the brainchild of the founders of ISMG, the world’s largest media and education company focused on cybersecurity. The concept arose from feedback provided by subscribers of ISMG’s popular media properties, such as BankInfoSecurity and DataBreachToday. These subscribers expressed a strong desire for a dedicated, distraction-free space to network and brainstorm new ideas.

“CyberEdBoard has helped with being able to network with others… it has been helpful to hear how other people tackle issues like the SEC cyber requirements.”

Erik Hart

“ISMG’s commitment to fostering a robust information security discourse has been instrumental in my growth, allowing me to contribute to critical conversations that shape the future of our industry.”

When the CISO’s Name Is on the Lawsuit

CISOs increasingly face personal liability when breaches occur, named individually in lawsuits and regulatory actions.

No leader can navigate this fragmented landscape alone, making seasoned peer networks essential risk management—for the person, not just the organization.

The Global Regulatory Maze CISOs Must Navigate

For any organization operating across borders, which is to say, most of them, security compliance is no longer a destination. It's a set of overlapping, fast-moving, and sometimes contradictory clocks, all running at once, in jurisdictions that don't coordinate with one another.
