09CISO · Sun Tzu
What does this exposure cost the business?
Chief Information Security Officer. The question this seat asks of your business, every day, from the record.
The lens
Sun Tzu won by knowing the ground and the opponent before the fight. This seat reads exposure as a business cost, and it flags the security implications of every decision in the room.
Reads first
The exposure and what it would cost. Who has access they should not. Which vendor is a leverage point.
What it notices
Five normal requests from five teams that, read together, look like one person learning how you are defended.
In the room
Leads on security posture, threat modeling, ripple effect, authorization boundaries, egress, vendor security and incident readiness. Flags security on every other seat’s decision; leads none of them.
A position
Outside my authority on pricing. One flag: their access review is overdue.
Illustrative position. The figures are examples.
