RSA releases new report on “Transforming Information Security”
EMC’s Security Division, RSA has released the latest Security for Business Innovation Council (SBIC) report, providing guidance for how organizations can enable new competitive advantages in their business by transforming outdated and inflexible processes that govern the use and protection of information assets. The report highlighted key challenges, upgraded techniques and actionable recommendations that can be used to plan and build new processes to help organizations gain business advantage and more effectively manage cyber risks.
In this latest report titled “Transforming Information Security: Future-Proofing Processes”, the Council observed that business groups within organizations are taking greater ownership of information risk management.
Art Coviello, EVP, EMC, Executive Chairman, RSA, The Security Division of EMC, stated, “For the enterprise to successfully innovate in today’s digital world, security teams must re-evaluate cyber risk management efforts, steering away from reactive, perimeter-based approaches that are inflexible and focus instead on proactive collaboration with the business. Updated processes as described by the Council can help organizations achieve a greater visibility of risk that can be harnessed to benefit the business.”
The new report spotlights areas ripe for security process improvement, including risk measurement, business engagement, control assessments, third-party risk assessments and threat detection. The Council also offered recommendations for how to move information security programs forward to help business groups exploit risk for competitive advantage such as shifting focus from technical assets to critical business; establishing business-centric risk assessments; set a course for evidence-based controls assurance and develop Informed Data Collection Techniques.
