About our Audience Insights Series

Before diving into any brand, marketing or communications work, CMOs and marketers know that understanding your audience is key. Who are they? What drives their decisions? What can we offer that they will truly value? 

However, getting this insight is easier said than done. The hard part is cutting through overwhelming, often disjointed research – especially when time is tight. That’s why we’ve created the Aspectus Audience Insights

This series curates the research that matters and packages it into clear, visual and actionable insights. We focus on the audiences we know inside out, helping you unlock better ideas, build stronger messaging and shape strategies that stick.  

This report focuses on Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) – a role that’s becoming ever-more demanding with rapidly changing tech and regulations.
