About this listen
Financial fluency is essential for every CISO—and in this episode, we break down the core principles of financial management in the context of enterprise cybersecurity. You’ll learn how to interpret balance sheets, manage operational and capital expenditures, and build forecasts that align with multi-year strategic plans. We explain how to calculate total cost of ownership (TCO), return on investment (ROI), and how to present these figures in ways that resonate with CFOs and boards.
Just as importantly, we discuss how financial management intersects with vendor negotiations, contract reviews, and program scalability. As a CCISO, your ability to speak the language of finance builds trust, supports budgeting success, and enables smarter prioritization across competing initiatives. The exam will challenge you to make budget and investment decisions based on business context—this episode equips you with the leadership and financial acumen to do so with confidence.
