Description

Bridging the gap between information security and strategic planning


This publication is a reflection of the author's firsthand experience as an information security consultant, working for an array of clients in the private and public sectors. Readers discover how to work with their organizations to develop and implement a successful information security plan by improving management practices and by establishing information security as an integral part of overall strategic planning.

The book starts with an overview of basic concepts in strategic planning, information technology strategy, and information security strategy. A practical guide to defining an information security strategy is then provided, covering the "nuts and bolts" of defining long-term information security goals that effectively protect information resources. Separate chapters covering technology strategy and management strategy clearly demonstrate that both are essential, complementary elements in protecting information.

Following this practical introduction to strategy development, subsequent chapters cover the theoretical foundation of an information security strategy, including:
* Examination of key enterprise planning models that correspond to different uses of information and different strategies for securing information
* Review of information economics, an essential link between information security strategy and business strategy
* Role of risk in building an information security strategy

Two separate case studies are developed, helping readers understand how the development and implementation of information security strategies can work within their own organizations.

This is essential reading for information security managers, information technology executives, and consultants. By linking information security to general management strategy, the publication is also recommended for nontechnical executives who need to protect the value and security of their organization's information.

描述

這本出版物是作者作為一名信息安全顧問在私營和公共部門的各種客戶中的第一手經驗的反映。讀者將了解如何與組織合作,通過改進管理實踐並將信息安全作為整體戰略規劃的一部分來制定和實施成功的信息安全計劃。

該書首先概述了戰略規劃、信息技術戰略和信息安全戰略的基本概念。然後提供了一個實用指南,涵蓋了定義長期信息安全目標的“螺絲釘和螺母”,以有效保護信息資源。涵蓋技術戰略和管理戰略的獨立章節清楚地表明,這兩者都是保護信息的必要且互補的要素。

在這個實用的戰略發展介紹之後,接下來的章節涵蓋了信息安全戰略的理論基礎,包括:
* 檢查與不同信息使用和不同信息安全戰略相對應的關鍵企業規劃模型
* 檢查信息經濟學,這是信息安全戰略和業務戰略之間的重要聯繫
* 風險在構建信息安全戰略中的角色

開發了兩個獨立的案例研究,幫助讀者了解如何在自己的組織中開發和實施信息安全戰略。

這是信息安全經理、信息技術高管和顧問的必讀之作。通過將信息安全與總體管理戰略聯繫起來,本出版物也建議非技術高管保護其組織的價值和安全性的必讀之作。
