AXA XL teams up with FTI Consulting & Norton Rose Fulbright to offer innovative cybersecurity communications training for CISOs
NEW YORK, June 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- AXA XL is collaborating with FTI Consulting's Cybersecurity & Data Privacy Communications Team and Norton Rose Fulbright's Cyber practice to provide cyber insurance clients in North America with an innovative cybersecurity communications training program, Secure Your Seat. The unique training equips Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) and other cybersecurity leaders with the skills to effectively communicate complex technology and cybersecurity concepts to leadership, improving strategic decision-making and promoting a culture of security within their organizations. According to Gwenn Cujdik, AXA XL's Incident Response and Cyber Services Lead in the Americas, "Effective communication is essential for a robust cybersecurity posture and is critically important to successfully respond to a cyber crisis. It helps executives grasp the cybersecurity landscape, enabling informed decisions on resource allocation, risk management, and strategic priorities, not just on the day to day but when it matters most, in the heat of cyber crisis. When CISOs articulate cybersecurity initiatives and crisis response in business terms, it aligns security measures with company goals, brand, and reputation facilitating greater executive support and understanding." Secure Your Seat communications training helps CISOs translate complex technical jargon and key performance indicators (KPIs) into clear presentations for C-suite and Board leadership. AXA XL is excited to offer a new complimentary one-hour training for its cyber insurance clients, along with more extensive training options available at preferential pricing for AXA XL clients. "Our training includes a review of participants' current Board reporting frameworks, feedback on content and metrics, and practical tips for effectively communicating metrics and program maturity to the Board and C-suite," explained Chris Cwalina of NRF. "Additionally, we provide a brief overview of regulatory changes in disclosure requirements relevant to CISOs, which is essential for cybersecurity leaders to understand in the complex and evolving environment." "In our latest research report, CISO Redefined: Navigating C-Suite Perceptions & Expectations, 94% of executives say information security has increased in prominence over the past 12 months, but significant communications gaps still exist between cybersecurity leaders and the executive leadership team," said Meredith Griffanti, Global Head of Cybersecurity & Data Privacy Communications at FTI Consulting. "Through this training we're looking to help close that gap, enabling the CISO to become a better communicator, and convey critical cybersecurity information in a way that resonates with business priorities. And ultimately, the program helps the cybersecurity leader 'secure their seat' in the boardroom or in a director's chair themselves." AXA XL offers a range of cyber insurance products and services to help businesses protect themselves against cyber threats. Offerings include coverage for investigating and managing cyber incidents, financial protection against liabilities, and risk management services to strengthen cybersecurity.
