It’s hard to keep up with the pace of technology change
New technologies and security risks are emerging rapidly, technical debt is increasing, and as a company director, it’s hard to keep up with the pace of change.
Directors are responsible for ensuring appropriate cyber security measures are in place, and for ensuring the company meets its data privacy obligations. Penalties for failing to fulfil directors' responsibilities are significant including disqualification as a director.
Often directors rely on anecdotal reports or incomplete data – with particular risks occurring when the technology leader has gaps in their knowledge or is filtering the information that comes to the board.
Without a clear understanding of the technology function’s performance, boards risk exposing their organisation to operational failures, security vulnerabilities, and poor alignment with strategic objectives. Mismanagement can lead to financial losses, reputational damage and regulatory non-compliance.
Data driven insights that enable effective technology oversight
The StackUp platform empowers Company Directors with comprehensive, data-driven insights that enable effective oversight of their technology function.
Through our platform, directors can benchmark their company’s technology performance, identifying areas that put their business at risk or offer opportunities for improvement.
By leveraging StackUp’s assessments, directors gain transparent metrics that align with their governance responsibilities in critical areas like information security and cyber risk, data privacy, and technology infrastructure.
Our platform’s comprehensive benchmarking, combined with the option for independent CIO/CTO verification, ensures that directors not only understand how their technology stacks up against industry standards but can also validate the accuracy of their teams' self-assessments.
This process helps directors make informed decisions that protect against costly risks such as data breaches, outages, and inefficiencies.
StackUp’s solution supports directors in meeting their governance obligations, offering a clear, personalised report that highlights their organisation’s risk profile and overall performance. This proactive approach enables directors to confront potential threats before they escalate, ensuring that their companies remain compliant, secure, and competitive.
