In an era of escalating cyber threats, multinational corporations (MNCs) must adopt a unified approach that merges strategic cybersecurity governance with effective crisis management protocols. As cyberattacks become more sophisticated and transnational in nature, organizations face mounting challenges in ensuring data security, regulatory compliance, and operational continuity. This paper examines how MNCs can develop a leadership-centric cybersecurity framework that integrates board-level oversight, cross-border regulatory alignment, third-party risk management, and advanced threat detection systems. It also explores the crucial role of crisis management in mitigating the impact of cyber incidents, including rapid response planning, stakeholder communication, legal risk mitigation, and business recovery. The analysis draws upon case studies, international regulations such as GDPR and NIS2, and global standards like ISO/IEC 27001 to identify best practices. Emphasis is placed on the importance of employee training, digital forensics readiness, and executive coordination in building organizational cyber resilience. By aligning governance with crisis protocols, MNCs can not only defend against cyber threats but also respond swiftly and strategically when breaches occur, ensuring long-term trust, reputation, and business sustainability in a volatile digital environment.
