Secure Your Future with Cyber Security
As every investment in AI creates a new cyber risk, the role of the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) has evolved from network security management to a strategic, board-facing executive position. While CISOs typically possess technical depth, their role demands much more: leveraging security for growth and innovation (in addition to providing strong defense), driving security tools adoption, providing matrixed leadership across technology functions, staying smart on modern software development processes, and educating the board on their new responsibilities in cyber governance.
Heller's Roots are in Cyber Search
Heller founded our business on CIO and CISO search. We were there when CISOs transitioned from network operations to business enablement. We were there when board-level communication became a crucial new skill for CISOs. And we are here now, as cyber leadership faces new pressures from bad actors and fresh challenges from AI adoption. Our extensive CISO networks span every industry, covering enterprise data security, product security, and increasingly, board-level executive cyber talent. As thought leaders in the CISO space, Heller enjoys a high degree of credibility with this vital and unique professional community.
