  1. Maybe: B. Human resources should be targeted to ensure all new employees undertake security awareness and compliance training to reduce the impact of phishing and ransomware attack?

    To “ensure all new employees undertake security awareness and compliance training” would be a relatively quick and easy undertaking, i.e. a “quick win.” This could prevent serious security problems. This would also take the entire business into account.

    What is a “risk posture dashboard for executive management.” going to do? Seems to me, that would only be informational, it would do little to directly “embed security across the business.”
