A flat cybersecurity budget doesn’t have to mean weaker coverage

A video from Help Net Security features a virtual Chief Information Security Officer discussing how to maintain security coverage when budgets are flat or cut. The strategy involves categorizing expenses into four buckets to identify where to reallocate rather than applying equal cuts across all line items.

Why it matters: Security leaders and finance teams deciding how to optimize spending during budget constraints need practical frameworks for prioritization that preserve coverage of critical assets.
