[Verse 1]
When hackers strike they don't speak dollars
But boardrooms need to see the cost
Translate your threats to revenue lost
Show business impact, make it clear
Turn technical risk to financial fear
A breach could cost us millions more
Than investment in security's core
[Chorus]
Speak their language, show the money
Risk and return, make it sunny
Give them choices, not just warnings
Accept the risk or fund the dawning
Build a bridge from tech to business
Share the words that show you get this
CISO success means translation
Security through conversation
[Verse 2]
Skip the dashboard full of red
Tell stories that stick in their head
Paint scenarios they understand
A supply chain attack could strand
Our operations for thirty days
While customers find other ways
Narrative beats numbers every time
Make risk real with story rhyme
[Chorus]
Speak their language, show the money
Risk and return, make it sunny
Give them choices, not just warnings
Accept the risk or fund the dawning
Build a bridge from tech to business
Share the words that show you get this
CISO success means translation
Security through conversation
[Bridge]
Don't say "we need more firewalls"
Say "protect our revenue calls"
Align your posture with their appetite
Show how security makes it right
When business speaks of managed risk
Your metrics need to show what's brisk
The vocabulary must be shared
To show them why they should have cared
[Verse 3]
Present options, not demands
We can accept or strengthen hands
Option one accepts the threat
Option two's our safety net
Map your controls to enterprise goals
Show how security fills the holes
In business strategy and growth plans
Make security the helping hands
[Final Chorus]
Speak their language, show the money
Risk and return, make it sunny
Give them choices, not just warnings
Accept the risk or fund the dawning
Build a bridge from tech to business
Share the words that show you get this
CISO success means translation
Security through conversation
[Outro]
When technical meets financial speech
That's when security goals you'll reach
Business alignment starts today
With words that show security's way
