Technology risk management: detection to protection

Technology fuels nearly every aspect of business today. Accomplishing even the simplest tasks – for customers, employees, suppliers – usually requires technology.

In this world, system availability is non-negotiable. The responsibility for keeping all of those systems – the very business itself – humming along falls squarely on the shoulders of chief information security officers, chief information officers, chief technology officers and other technology professionals.

Every new piece of technology opens the organisation up to increased risk. Meanwhile, cyber criminals are using the same tech advances to launch ever-more clever attacks aimed at taking down systems, stealing data and generally wreaking havoc on the business. And your own people could inflict enormous damage, whether they mean to or not.

Risk detection is still important. But you need more to protect your business.

Boards and C-suites are taking notice and demanding tech leaders accurately anticipate and manage risks, and provide insight on the effectiveness of processes and controls. The business depends on it.

IT risk is no longer a technical cyber security issue – it’s a business issue.

Technology risk management goes beyond IT risk detection and security to protection encompassing resilience, business continuity, compliance, third-party risk management and data privacy.

This ebook will help you move from simple risk detection to comprehensive protection by expanding your vision, capabilities and influence.
