FEATUREDA Letter from the CISO to the Chief Compliance Officer (CCO)
There are fewer closer relationships in the C-Suite than the CISO and the Chief Compliance Officer (CCO). CIO/CTOs’ might have the closest relationship, but theirs is on the execution side, as a company’s CISO can’t secure the IT environment without the support of the technology team.
The CISO’s relationship to IT represents the “how” of information security. As the CCO, you’ll work closely with the CISO on the “why” of cybersecurity.

Microsoft Goes Public
This week marks the 38th anniversary since Microsoft became a public company. In the early days, Microsoft, founded by Bill Gates and Paul Allen in 1975, initially developed software for early personal computers. The company’s big break came with the development of MS-DOS for the IBM PC in 1981, setting the stage for its dominance in the operating system market.
Since Microsoft’s IPO on March 13th, 1986 at $21 per share, its stock price has significantly appreciated, closing at $360.69 on a recent date, marking a roughly 13-fold increase. Remarkably, a $1,000 investment at the time of Microsoft’s IPO would be valued at nearly $5.96 million today.
