As our business environment is rapidly changing, we need to be on top of how information security risk impacts our ability to execute our business strategy. Key drivers are of course the expanding attack surface as a result of our more digital business model and interdependence with other parties, but also the escalating uncertainty of the threat landscape. Swedbank is moving into a more digital, data-driven and outcome-focused costume, and thus it is crucial that information security needs to transform with the same pace and in the same direction. That means utilizing agile ways of working, using a multitude of channels and emerging techniques to convey and relay the message and expectations to leadership and the workforce, utilizing increased automation and decrease manual processing, and a focus on measurable results and continual improvements ” Petra Klein, your future manager
