Business models today encourage, and even require, opening boundaries between
customers, suppliers, and partners. Technology can enable that openness and is
also seen as a means to help achieve compliance with corporate policy and
regulation. However, behind this increased accessibility and reliance on
technology exists real risks and challenges. Technology can support compliance
efforts, act as a business enabler, and provide a foundation to achieving
secure systems. Meanwhile complex network environments, global operations, and
human beings often challenge an organization’s security efforts. The
increasing occurrence and complexity of security threats indicate that security
has become a business imperative. Managing information risk at the enterprise
level enables companies to achieve more efficient and effective security
processes and programs. Issues such as stakeholder value, consumer confidence,
brand and reputation protection, and legal and regulatory compliance
can be addressed.
