2.) Among the seven (7) roles and responsibilities of cybersecurity structure, which one do
you think is the most important?

Among the 7 roles, I cannot specifically choose what is the most important roles as each
role has its own purpose. They all play a specific role that makes the teamwork in a well-
rounded manner. Therefore, I cannot choose from the seven roles as each one is different from
the other.

Although, if I really need to choose from the 7 roles I would choose the Ability to Work
across the organization. This helps with communicating, collaborating, and cooperating with
the members of the cybersecurity team even the other departments.
