Businesses have made significant moves to respond to information security threats by addressing vulnerabilities with increased resources, training, governance and integration. But with smarter attacks occurring in greater numbers, short-term solutions and incremental changes are not enough. The rise of emerging markets, the financial crisis and off shoring only adds to the complexity of ever-evolving information security issues – and the urgency to address them.

As advanced and smarter attacks on public information, services and infrastructure have grown in multi-fold in last few years, CISO’s responsibility has also grown in multi-folds. Specific designed attacks on national information infrastructure have thrown tremendous challenges to national government. Due to lack of adequate security policy and measurements, critical business and national information security at stake. Uprising India needs smarter CISOs to prevent smart attacks. The 3rd ‘Top 100 CISO Awards’ is an effort in the direction to recognize those smarter, intelligent and innovative CISOs from across the nation.

The ‘Top 100 CISO Awards’ is an attempt to recognize the contributions that these extremely talented executives make that has such a huge impact on our businesses. This is the first of its kind award that has been conceptualized by ‘InfoSecurity’ magazine – India’s first and only magazine focused exclusively on information security and iViZ Security, the industry’s  first company to launch cloud based penetration testing service for web applications.
