- A siloed perspective of risk in your organization.
- Gaps that can inhibit the success of your organization's digital transformation initiatives.

Taking a proactive approach to addressing and developing a plan for digital risk management leads to:

- Clear links between current and future digital transformation initiatives and the potential risks that may impact their success.
- A diversified ownership model for digital risk that spans the organization.
