Abstract
When Deutsche Bahn CEO Rüdiger Grube in 2013 was quoted as saying that cybersecurity at his company was a management-board issue, not something left to the system administrators (see van Zütphen 2013), this was something out of the ordinary as cybersecurity did not count as a traditional board issue at the time. These days Grube is in the best of company, because the topic of cybersecurity is now on the management board agenda of an increasing number of enterprises. A group of CEOs from 23 German blue chips even discussed it at length at the 2014 Munich Security Conference (see Gercke et al. 2014).
