Abstract: Cyberattacks are becoming a part of daily life, but navigating before, during, and after an attack is far from routine. With reputations on the line, cybersecurity is much more than an IT problem. Strategic communication across entire organizations is necessary to successfully navigate cybersecurity. This article outlines cybersecurity and cyberattacks from a communication perspective and provides five cybersecurity communication challenges. Suggestions for further research are also included.
