演讲内容简介:
Although firms are increasingly appointing chief information security officers (CISOs) and intensifying their investments in artificial intelligence (AI) innovation, limited research has examined how CISO presence influences firms’ AI innovation activities. This issue is particularly salient given growing managerial concerns about the security risks associated with AI-driven innovation. Drawing on role theory, which suggests that executive roles are shaped by functional expectations as well as social interactional and structural dynamics, this study investigates how CISO presence in the top management team (TMT) affects AI innovation. We further examine how CEO regulatory focus (prevention vs. promotion focus) and board members’ AI expertise moderate this relationship. Using panel data from S&P 500 firms from 2005 to 2022, we find that CISO presence is negatively associated with AI innovation. This negative relationship is strengthened when CEOs exhibit a higher prevention focus but becomes positive when CEOs exhibit a higher promotion focus. In addition, board members’ AI expertise shifts the effect of CISO presence on AI innovation in a positive direction. Together, these findings highlight the importance of how IT executive roles are socially constructed through interactions with CEOs and board members, and how these dynamics shape cybersecurity leadership’s influence on firms’ AI innovation.
尽管越来越多的企业开始任命首席信息安全官(Chief Information Security Officers, CISOs),并不断加大对人工智能(AI)创新的投入,但关于CISO的存在如何影响企业AI创新活动的研究仍然十分有限。考虑到管理者对于AI驱动创新所伴随的安全风险日益关注,这一问题尤为重要。基于角色理论(Role Theory),该理论认为高管角色不仅受到其职能职责的影响,还受到社会互动关系和组织结构因素的塑造,本研究探讨了高层管理团队(Top Management Team, TMT)中CISO的存在如何影响企业的AI创新。同时,我们进一步考察了CEO的调节焦点(regulatory focus,即预防焦点与促进焦点)以及董事会成员的AI专业经验如何调节这一关系。基于2005年至2022年标普500(S&P 500)企业的面板数据分析,我们发现:CISO的存在与企业AI创新呈显著负相关关系;当CEO具有较强的预防焦点(prevention focus)时,这种负向关系进一步增强;当CEO具有较强的促进焦点(promotion focus)时,这种关系则转变为正向关系;此外,董事会成员的AI专业经验会使CISO存在对AI创新的影响朝着更积极的方向转变。总体而言,这些研究发现表明,信息技术高管角色并非仅由其正式职责所决定,而是在与CEO和董事会成员的互动过程中被社会性地建构(socially constructed)。同时,这些互动关系进一步塑造了网络安全领导者(cybersecurity leadership)对企业AI创新活动所产生的影响。
