Cybersecurity: A Business Imperative
A Strategic, Top-Down Approach
Effective cybersecurity starts with a top-down philosophy. It’s about more than just tools and technologies—it’s about creating a security-first culture across your organization. Different departments will have different security priorities:
Human Resources: Prioritizes the confidentiality of sensitive employee data.
Finance & Sales: Focuses on data integrity to ensure accuracy and trustworthiness.
E-commerce & Operations: Emphasizes availability to maintain uptime and customer satisfaction.
While these priorities may differ, they are all interconnected. Balancing confidentiality, integrity, and availability (the CIA triad) is key to a comprehensive cybersecurity framework.
Compliance Is Not Security—And Security Is Not Compliance
Cybersecurity Assessments
Cybersecurity related assessments vary from overall and strategic to very technical and tactical. They are designed to build upon one another with each providing its own set of information for the others to be more efficient and effective. These assessment tools and procedures also contribute to the overall security philosophy and posture of a business by constantly measuring its efficacy.
