With the development of digitalization and the high specialization of cyber attackers, enterprises face higher security threats. Therefore, enterprises must manage information security as a core risk. Establishing a "Chief Information Security Officer" at the senior level has become a trend, and new EU/German regulations have further strengthened the importance of internal IT compliance, providing new institutional guarantees for this key function. The role of the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) is multifaceted and challenging, especially in interactions with internal stakeholders and external suppliers and partners. The CISO's strategic work lays the foundation for operational implementation, requiring not only comprehensive knowledge in information security-related fields, but also strategic ability and persuasion. Only in this way can the contradiction between innovation and risk minimization faced by today's organizations be effectively resolved. In addition to technical capabilities, the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) should also improve soft skills.
