Scenario:
Two more weeks have passed and your CISO is excited about implementing the new controls and solutions that you’ve recommended. Your detailed analysis of the operational environment and alignment of security solutions to the business mission and goals was spot on!
You have gained confidence in the CISO and board of directors, and they’ve identified additional funding that may be applied towards security. You have asked to implement Security Automation (read about it here). Then review these additional readings as well:
