But that's not how insiders see it. As the business world has become more digital, cybersecurity has rapidly evolved into a top priority for enterprises. Security today is a board-level concern, and a weak defense — or outright negligence — poses the ultimate risk to Fortune 500 businesses and startups alike. That’s why Industry Dive, the company behind Retail Dive: Tech, is launching Cybersecurity Dive, a new daily publication for digital security executives and professionals. Cybersecurity Dive will bring readers the latest news and insights on digital security issues, data breaches and vulnerabilities, and the strategies and technologies being employed to keep businesses safe.
