The C-suite has added yet another executive to the mix – the chief trust officer (CTrO).
Business Insider reports that this small but growing cohort of tech experts is charged with working to protect data, answering questions around the efficacy and safety of AI, and building trust.
This new role differs from the chief information security officer (CISO) which is responsible for responding when there's a cybersecurity threat or problem. CTrOs, as they're commonly known, are meant to be more proactive.
More public facing than the CISO, the CTrO is tasked with safeguarding data, keeping companies compliant with regulations, ensuring ethical and accurate uses of AI, and communicating all of this to customers with the goal of becoming more transparent and trustworthy.
