Beyond Data & Network : Business Knowledge
Join us in some fundamentals of strategic cybersecurity governance, often-overlooked...
Financial Return on Security Investment (FROSI)
No money to lose ! Together, we will calculate your "FROSI".
FROSI is a metric that quantifies the expected net value of a security investment. To do so, we will measure the potential loss avoided through cybersecurity measures.
- Financial valuation of critical assets and data
- Likelihood of asset and data-related incidents
- Financial impact of cyber events/incidents on the business
- Investment expenses for proposed security measures (with QUICK WINS as game-changers)
- Comparing security costs against potential losses if left unimplemented
It helps any size organizations evaluate the effectiveness of their cybersecurity spending. You will be able to prioritize investments to manage cyber risk.
Where are true business assets?
What you only need to protect is : your business.
Supporting (or Secondary) assets enable the storage, processing, or transmission of primary assets. They are also called "Associated assets".
The Supporting assets listed below are still valuable to the organization but generally considered less critical or derived from the Priority assets.
Both worth protection but, in resources allocation, first things first, right ?
Note: Supporting assets are often what protects Priority assets (i.e.: Applicant Tracking Systems protect candidate personal information").
Priority assets
- Strategic business plan
- Intellectual property / Research & Development data
- Customer database informations
- Financial records & Personnel data
- Network architecture documentation
- Software source code
- Business Continuity plan & Data back up
- Regulatory compliance & Security documentations
Supporting assets
- Project & Management tools
- Marketing & Communication channels
- Information processing technology
- Enterprise Resource Planning (accountancy, human resource...)
- Network monitoring and management (routers, switches, malwares)
- Integrated Development Environments
- Cloud infrastructure, Encryption keys & Third-party contracts
- Auditing logs & monitoring processes
Risk Analysis?
PLAN, DO, CHECK, ACT... we all know this. But how do we align it with business objectives? We will work together on your cyber risk management.
- Risks context: Mapping your organization's threat landscape
- Risks detect: List our potential obstacles on the road (cyber vulnerabilities and attack vectors)
- Risks analysis: Quantifying risk severity through impact-driven methods, gauging the depth of curbs or the width of gaps
- Risks evaluation: Prioritize risks against business-led tolerance thresholds
- Risks treatment: Implementing adaptive cybersecurity controls, dynamically calibrated like intelligent traffic management systems
100% security is a myth.
