Information Security in Context: The CISO as a Transformational Role in Risk Management
$100.00
When the organization approaches information risk as a silo disconnected from other enterprise risk areas that do not collaborate with each other there is no possibility to be intelligent about risk decisions that could impact business strategy and operations. Risk Management maturity increases as the ability to connect, understand, analyze, and monitor interrelationships and underlying patterns of performance, risk, and compliance across the business grows. Organizations require complete situational and holistic awareness of information risk management across operations, processes, relationships, systems, transactions, and data to see the big picture or risk and impact on performance and strategy. Understanding and managing risk in today’s environment requires a new paradigm in managing the interconnections and relationships of risk, particularly information risk. Given the pervasive use of information and technology across the organization, it is a natural path for information security to step up to lead enterprise risk management strategies. CISOs need to stay on top of their game by monitoring information security risk to their organization both internally (e.g., operations, processes, systems, and data) and externally (e.g., threat, competitive, legal, and geographic environments) to stay competitive in today’s economy. Organizations must understand information security risk and make risk-informed business decisions to manage effectively manage risk across the enterprise.
