From Compliance to Resilience: Reframing Cybersecurity Maturity Models for Executive Decision-making in Critical Infrastructure
Abstract
Cybersecurity maturity models are widely used across critical infrastructure sectors to assess security posture and demonstrate alignment with regulatory and industry expectations. However, maturity results are frequently interpreted as compliance achievements rather than as resiliencerelevant decision inputs for executives, boards, and policymakers. This article argues that cybersecurity maturity models realize their greatest value when reframed as executive decisionsupport mechanisms that link cybersecurity capabilities to enterprise risk, operational resilience, and supply chain interdependence. Drawing on critical-infrastructure contexts in healthcare supply chains and energy and smart-grid governance, the article proposes a resilience-oriented interpretive framework that transforms maturity outputs into governance-grade insights, including capability distribution, weakest-link exposure, prioritized investment logic, and continuous improvement pathways. The resulting contribution offers a practical and defensible approach for translating maturity assessments into board-level oversight, strategic planning, and risk-informed resource allocation in complex, interdependent infrastructure ecosystems.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
