# Where the CISO Reports

## Summary

Since the role of the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) and how he or she reports has a major impact on security and risk, I think it’s interesting to look at how different organizations have structured the position. With that said, there is very little consistency other than a correlation with the industry vertical’s understanding of IT risk.
