Some CISOs are really just a title stapled on a glorified Security Engineer, so the answer is, "it depends".
Of course, if the CISO is a board member or an executive, they should be offered the same coverage as the others (there is a specific insurance AFAIK).
Kind regards.

Now that cyber is a business discussion, CISOs are being viewed differently. Is their personal liability increasing? Should protections traditionally provided to Directors and Offices be extended to CISOs, or is the CISO better off being an employee?
