P366 – SEMINAR ON INSURANCE SECURITY RISK MANAGEMENT (COMBINED)

 

Background:

In this digital era, as organizations use more and more automated business processes for better support of their missions, risk management plays a critical role in protecting an organization’s information assets, and therefore its mission, from IT-related risk.

An understanding of risk and the application of risk assessment methodology is essential to be able to efficiently and effectively create a secure computing environment. The rate of change in technology and the relatively recent explosive growth of the Internet is putting forth challenges in the IS risk assessment.

An effective risk management process is an important component of a successful IT security program and its  goal of an organization’s risk management process should be to protect the organization’s ability  to perform  the business, not just its IT assets. Therefore, the risk management process should not be treated primarily as a technical function carried out by the IT experts who operate and manage the IT system, but as an essential management function of the organization.

Risk management is the process of identifying risk, assessing risk, and taking steps to reduce risk to an acceptable level.
