"A conservative Board ought to require a contingency reserve for this $1.8mm contingent liability while a less-conservative one ought to at least mandate financial statement disclosure, either mitigated only by implementing a Board-down breach prevention protocol."

About Cyber Nation Central
Cyber Nation Central is dedicated to empowering Boards and C-Suites to navigate the complexities of cybersecurity governance, strategy, and conduct with confidence.
Our mission is to enhance the security posture of critical infrastructure organizations worldwide, cultivating leadership teams that drive cyber readiness from the Board down, fortifying the cyber sovereignty and resilience of nations, institutions, and citizens alike.
At the core of our approach is The CEO Method™, developed to equip leaders with practical organization-wide frameworks for tackling today’s complex cyber challenges.
We empower CEOs, Boards, C-Suites, and Investors to recognize that cybersecurity is not just an IT issue, but a core business imperative permeating every are of corporate strategy and impacting reputation, resilience, and national security.
Leveraging a century of expertise from Wall Street, government, cyber, and defense, we empower organizations to implement The CEO Method™ as a foundation for outmaneuvering today's toughest cybersecurity challenges with uncompromising resolve.
The CEO Method™: A Transformative Approach to Cybersecurity
At the core of Cyber Nation Central’s approach lies The CEO Method™—a framework that decentralizes cybersecurity by embedding it as a central priority for the Board and C-Suite.
This transformative methodology leverages the CISO’s technical expertise while distributing the remaining 97% of cybersecurity responsibilities—those focused on culture, governance, strategy, and individual conduct—across the entire organization.
Starting with the Board and C-Suite as culture drivers, The CEO Method™ requires active participation from top leadership to embed cybersecurity into the fabric of corporate governance.
Unlike traditional approaches that silo cybersecurity within the IT department, The CEO Method™ advocates that cyber resilience can only be achieved when all organizational leaders engage directly. Without this hands-on involvement, an authentic, resilient cybersecurity posture remains out of reach.
Explore how The CEO Method™ empowers your organization to meet the demands of today’s cyber landscape and achieve a breach-deterrent culture.
Our Proven Process for Cyber Readiness
We help Executives and Board Directors become cyber-certified fiduciaries, create breach-deterrent cultures, and prevent breaches with 90%+ breach deterrence rate, all through a proven cyber readiness process.
Structured around The CEO Method™ framework, this process equips Boards and C-Suites with actionable tools for proactive and resilient cyber governance, corporate strategy, and individual conduct.
