Baxter International's annual report for fiscal year 2025 describes its cybersecurity program as currently run by its information-technology chief rather than a dedicated security executive.

The filing states the company's cybersecurity program "is managed by our Chief Information Officer (CIO), who is currently serving as our interim Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) while we complete the search for a permanent CISO."

The filing describes the CISO's organization as responsible for cybersecurity strategy, policy and risk-management architecture across Baxter's corporate network and its medical-device technologies, but it does not name the CIO or say when the search for a permanent CISO began.

See the interim and acting CISO record for other companies naming a temporary security leader in an SEC filing, with no comparison or ranking implied.
