Prusch acknowledges the unique challenges and opportunities of the current tech landscape. “The pace of change in technology is escalating at an unprecedented rate, and it is a uniquely challenging and interesting time for digital trust professionals and their organisations,” says Prusch. He aims to leverage his past experience in guiding organisations through transformation in his new role at ISACA. Prusch stressed the importance of equipping members and customers "with the forward-looking resources they need to thrive in their careers and enterprises." His appointment as CEO signals a promising new chapter for ISACA in its pursuit of advancing global digital trust.
