Problem:

Trying to develop your cybersecurity program can often feel like juggling a dozen balls in the air. One second shoring up resources, the next trying to improve protection by flipping on a feature, to then responding to emails questioning what you’re doing in light of the new breach report.

At the end of the year, you can think of few specific good things you did, but have a hard time communicating to leadership the overall security improvements you’ve made.
Measuring this progress feels overwhelming and not sure where to start. Risk seems ‘squishy’ and lacks the qualitative metrics the c-suite is looking for.

Solution:

We break down a cybersecurity program into simple pieces called ‘pillars’.

Each pillar is made of up security controls.
Each security control has a defined capability and key performance indicators (KPI).

By organizing your program this way, everything is organized and laid out in a system that can be tracked, measured, and reported on.
It also allows us to build specific disciplines into pillar development.

For example, one of the primary pillars is ‘Identify’. Are we able to identify the assets that we have? If yes, we can move on to the next one. If not, (which is normally the case) we can apply our systematic proven process for improving your ‘Identify’ pillar.

Another advantage is that we can compare the health and strength of the pillars to one another. This reveals deltas and gaps relative to one another. This is one of the primary areas we focus on to improve programs, improve visibility, and decide road-map initiatives.

Sometimes clients will have a specific program challenge they are facing. Because or our experience and breadth of clients, we’ve been able to experience solutions to these challenges.

I was recently asked by a board member, ‘Are we secure?’. A simple three-word question. You’d think that would be easy to answer. But in all honesty, it’s one of the hardest. Organizing and measuring your program by security pillars allows us to show leadership the health and security maturity of each area. It tracks progress over time. When we use this approach, we’re able to turn the question around by showing how the program is organized, the maturity of each pillar, and an overall quantitative score. Then we can ask, “Is this secure enough?”
