Subject: Is there any way to measure IT Security??



Dear all,

 

Currently I'm looking for a tool, or a technique to measure IT security?

 

The baseline for security is CIA (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability), 
that is every organization which want to called secure must be guarantee that 
their system comply this matter.

But the problem is, we need a tool/technique to measure how secure are we. 
Therefore, wee need a tool/technique to measure how close that our system 
status now to CIA.

 

Please share your experience about this matter.

If there any link about this issue, I really appreciate if you share to us (You 
may contact me privately) .

 

 

Best Regs,

 

Toto
