Authorities Communications Headquarters (GCHQ, the UK equal of the US’s Nationwide Safety Company, or NSA), has simply marketed for a chief data safety officer. The function, which the advert describes as “one of the crucial influential cyber safety management roles within the UK,” gives a most wage of £130,000 (about $175,000) — and not one of the inventory choices or different inducements widespread in trade.
Profitable candidates could have “experience in securing cloud environments and rising applied sciences inside digital transformation programmes, alongside a robust understanding of regulatory compliance frameworks corresponding to NIST, ISO 27001, GDPR and GovS 007. Skilled certifications corresponding to CISSP, CISM or CCISO are extremely fascinating,” the advert stated.
The job advert stresses the significance of the function. “As CISO, you’ll work with colleagues to set and implement the organisation’s cyber and data safety technique, putting the appropriate stability between functionality, acceptable danger and technological progress. You’ll combine safety governance into a posh set of cross-agency organisational decision-making boards making certain that data dangers are managed successfully.”
