Nabil Malik - Security performance metricsnooralmousa
This document discusses security performance metrics and measuring information security. It begins with providing background on information security and risk management. It then discusses the evolution of security from a technical function focused on controls to a broader assurance function centered around risk management. The document notes how current risk management processes focus more on identifying and fixing issues rather than quantifying and valuing risks. It stresses the importance of security metrics in answering business questions about security investments and performance over time. The remainder provides examples of technical security metrics in areas like perimeter defense and system availability, as well as metrics for measuring security programs based on frameworks involving controls and processes for activities like risk management, policy compliance, and incident response.
Christopher Mandelaris is the CISO of Chemical Bank and has 15 years of progressive IT experience. He discusses the changing role of the CISO from being reactive to becoming more proactive and risk-informed. The modern CISO focuses on IT risk management and building partnerships between information security and IT teams. An information security management program consists of components like technical security operations, asset classification, security operations centers, business continuity, training and awareness, metrics and reporting, and information security governance. Future trends include addressing gaps in these program areas.
Information Security Risk Management OverviewWesley Moore
This document discusses the information security risk management process that financial institutions are required to follow. It describes the key elements of the process, which includes conducting an information security risk assessment, developing an information security strategy approved by the board of directors, implementing security controls, monitoring security performance, and continuously updating the process based on new threats and vulnerabilities. The overall risk management process is governed to ensure tasks are completed appropriately, accountability is maintained, and risk is managed across the entire enterprise.
Step by-step for risk analysis and management-yaser aljohaniYaser Alrefai
Risk analysis and management is important for Digital Zone Corporation to secure their systems and customer information. They collect personal information from customers and need to identify vulnerabilities, threats, and risks. The analysis includes evaluating assets, finding vulnerabilities, conducting a risk assessment, and establishing security policies. It also provides recommendations for managing risks, such as creating an information risk management policy, security awareness training, and contingency plans. Regular risk analysis helps Digital Zone Corporation improve security and maintain customer trust.
This document discusses several security frameworks and methodologies. It describes COSO as a corporate governance framework focused on fraudulent financial reporting. CobiT is derived from COSO and deals with IT governance, providing processes and control objectives. ITIL is the most used framework for IT service management, focusing on identifying, planning, delivering and supporting IT services businesses rely on. ISO/IEC 27000 is a series of standards that outlines developing and maintaining an information security management system to help organizations manage security controls centrally.
From Device Selection to Data Protection: Selecting the Right Mobility Soluti...Enterprise Mobile
This document discusses selecting the right mobility solutions for an enterprise. It outlines that Marco Nielsen, VP of Services at Enterprise Mobile, will provide guidance on proliferation of devices and apps, factors to consider when choosing solutions, and decision making beyond just devices. The presentation helps navigate mobility strategy and solutions by reviewing requirements, considering key factors like security and manageability, and asking the right questions around device, app, and infrastructure selection. It emphasizes linking mobility strategy directly to business strategy and reviewing needs globally to obtain the right long term focused solutions.
This document discusses monitoring of cyber risk management. It identifies four key functional areas needed for transformation: 1) alignment of the whole organization around top cyber risks, 2) use of data to support business event detection, 3) transformation from indicator-driven to pattern-detection analytics, and 4) evolution of the talent model from reactive to proactive action. It then addresses common pitfalls in cyber risk management, such as delegating it solely to IT or treating it only as a compliance issue. Finally, it advocates a more proactive, collaborative approach treating cyber risk as a broader risk management issue addressed through an adaptive, holistic governance model.

IT Risk Management & Leadership 30 March - 02 April 2014 Dubai UAE360 BSI
Are you effectively securing your organization’s IT systems that store, process, or transmit organizational information?
Is your IT risk management plan tailored to the specific risk profile of your business and being coordinated across all functional and business units?
With the release of IT Governance frameworks, requirements for risk management and new international standards entering the market, the pressure is mounting to ensure that all your IT risks are identified and the necessary action is taken – be this to mitigate them, accept or ignore them. So, how safe is your IT system? What are the risks that your organization is being exposed to?
The solution to this challenge is to establish an effective risk management process that protects the organization, not just its IT assets, and provides it with the ability to perform its mission.
Risk management is the process of identifying and assessing risk and taking preventive measures to reduce it to an acceptable level. It is critical that you develop an effective risk management program that assesses and mitigates risks within your IT systems and better manages these IT-related mission risks.
