The new handbooks are based on the successful U.S. version of the Cyber-Risk Oversight Handbook, developed by the National Association of Corporate Directors and endorsed by the U.S. government. They were developed through a collaborative process including several international workshops.
In 2024, ISA and the European Confederation of Corporate Boards (ecoDa) published the second edition of a handbook for pan-European boards of directors based on the NACD handbook.
On September 27, 2019 the ISA and OAS announced publication of the first edition of the Cyber Risk Handbook for Latin American Boards of Directors in Spanish, Portuguese and English. These handbooks were developed in partnership with the OAS and included workshops and webinars to adapt the handbooks for use by Latin American boards of directors.
In 2018, the Internet Security Alliance published the first editions of its Managing Cyber Risk handbooks for German and British Boards of Directors. The handbooks were developed in partnership with American International Group, Inc.
