What is the First 90 Days as CISO course about?

A step-by-step guide to embedding trust and alignment from day one in pediatric health security leadership Each order is checked and updated against the latest insights before delivery. That is why access takes up to 24 hours rather than being instant.

What situation is the First 90 Days as CISO for?

Security leaders entering pediatric healthcare roles face a critical misalignment: their first 90-day plans are built on compliance checklists, not clinical workflows. This creates friction during onboarding, delays stakeholder buy-in, and risks positioning security as a barrier rather than an enabler. Without a mission-connected entry strategy, even strong technical leaders struggle to gain traction with medical staff and executive sponsors.

Who is the First 90 Days as CISO course for?

VP-level or incoming CISO in pediatric or specialty healthcare systems, focused on integrating security into patient care operations while meeting CCPA and federal privacy expectations.

What do you take away from the First 90 Days as CISO course?
