2021 CISO Compensation Benchmark Study

We are excited to announce the release of our 2021 CISO Compensation Benchmark Study, completed in partnership with IANS!

Over the past 12 months, the CISO role experienced a boost in both visibility and prominence. As a result, the demand for CISO talent grew even stronger, and with it the need for CISOs to understand their market value and how their compensation compares to their peers.

Our second annual CISO Compensation study, jointly fielded with IANS, offers objective insights and comprehensive compensation data from 458 CISOs across the U.S. and Canada.
