The past year has been challenging for corporate security leaders. They have grappled with everything from the fallout of geopolitical events and social and political shifts, to heightened threats to senior executives, growing insider risk, and sophisticated cyberattacks.

The Clarity Factory 2025 Annual CSO Survey contains a wealth of data to help CSOs understanding industry trends, benchmark their programmes, and make resourcing and talent decisions for the year ahead.
