FEATURES, INSIGHTS // Risk Management
Once we shed the shackles of “cyber” and “threat,” we free our teams to consider a full spectrum of intelligence, including support to physical security, insider threats, procurement, mergers and acquisitions, and executive decision-making.
While some forward-thinking companies have created c-suite positions for IT and security personnel such as CTOs and CISOs, these are, overall, still relatively rare.
The successful execution of each step of the intelligence cycle relies on the successful execution of the step that came before it.
Third party cyber risk management programs need to go beyond an initial scan and evaluate your third party’s security from the inside out.
It’s crucial to recognize that annual security predictions generally only include that which can be feasibly predicted by the final months of the prior year.
The solution: every week, devote at least two hours to basic cyber hygiene. Four best practices will help your team build habit from repetition.
Security metrics is a topic that, while challenging, is also important and at the top of the priority list for security organizations. Here are five tips for leveraging security metrics to keep your organization out of the lion’s den.
As long as organizations continue to employ simplistic “set it and forget it” security approaches, they will be forced into playing reactive, catch-up defense against cyber attackers.
Employing a third party adds risk, especially if that company is given some level of access to network and computing resources, or is asked to handle and protect critical or proprietary information.
National Cybersecurity Awareness Month (NCSAM) is a great vehicle to raise awareness for cybersecurity and to remind every organization that the ability to improve security operations begins with contextual awareness.
