Organizations must establish and maintain a framework to provide assurance that information security strategies are aligned with business objectives and consistent with applicable laws and regulations. This strategic framework and the requisite tactical plan must also reflect and support the community of users and, most importantly, the business mission. The information assurance strategy and program must be deliberate and it must figure prominently into the overall enterprise agenda.
By adopting an information security governance framework, CEOs and boards of directors will create a safer business community within the enterprise and for customers and business partners interconnected throughout the critical infrastructure. Robust security, while typically only associated with its costs, can serve as a catalyst to achieve even greater productivity gains and financial efficiencies.
Integration of information security must become a core management and governance function. And like quality, information security must be embraced as a journey requiring continuous improvement over time, with CEOs and boards of directors, joining CIO and CISOs, in responsibility for implementation and vigilance.
