Cybersecurity is a continuous, dynamic undertaking that requires a clear communication strategy between all the stakeholders in the organization. Whether it's keeping data secure, mitigating risk, or communicating with the board and C-Suite regarding the current threats and risks, security executives must be capable of providing clear information on their progress without being bogged down by technical details. A lot of cybersecurity reports are complicated technical, technical, and difficult to comprehend for the average reader. This stops security teams from communicating clearly about risk and security programs, which is crucial for preventing security breaches and keeping your business secure.

When creating a cybersecurity report, it is crucial to remember that the principal audience isn't just the IT team, but the board of directors. To make the report more appealing to the board, it should be focused on business risks rather than technology.

For example, if the report suggests that outdated web server software is responsible for the majority of the company's attack surface The report should communicate this information in a manner that emphasizes the impact on the organization and its bottom line. It is also essential to ensure that the reporting of security risks can be easily understood by non-technical users particularly as framework alignment and regulatory compliance are becoming increasingly significant issues for boards of many.

UpGuard has a library of templates designed for the primary reporting requirements of the board and senior managers. These templates consolidate the security performance information that is typically requested by the Board, including vendor summaries which highlight key metrics, including vulnerability management performance and third-party vulnerability to attack. These reports can be created instantly and exported as PowerPoint slides, which removes the need to prepare for board meetings.
