Risk Management Insight

… they care about risk.  They want answers to questions like:

• “How much risk do we have?”
• “How much more (or less) risk will we have if…?”
• “What am I getting for the money I’m spending on security today?”
• “Which risk issues are most significant, and how do they compare to the other business issues I have to deal with?”

When we can describe the value of security in terms of how it affects risk (the frequency and magnitude of loss), management listens because we’re speaking in terms they understand and care about.  Unfortunately, what our profession has provided them to-date are compliance checklists and red-yellow-green scales.

How About A New Approach, One That Answers The Tough Questions

The fact is, Information Risk Management is a relatively new discipline. What has been missing is a model that is easy to understand, logical, and that allows us to quantify risk.

CXOWARE and Risk Management Insight (RMI) were started to help organizations take advantage of a new approach to risk management based on models and methods of measurement  developed over the past ten years at large companies protecting sensitive information.

Our methods can show you what to measure, how to measure, and how to derive meaning from those measurements.

Our services include the consulting, training and tools necessary to help the CISO create a truly risk-managed organization. A risk-managed organization that sees:

• A greatly improved ability to communicate and explain to management the value proposition of security initiatives and practices
• Increased credibility in the eyes of management and other lines of business
• Much better leverage in the budget process
