A CIO should be able to understand that. Security is about mitigating loss, much like insurance. You should focus on explaining how your IDS implementation will help protect the investment your company has made in IT. An IDS should provide early warnings of a compromise and other security events. It will also help you quickly determine the scope of the event, escalate the activity to the correct departments, and the data gathered will make the remediation effort more efficient.
