How does the Holistic Security approach lead to better results for the organization?

Posted on June 29, 2007 | Filed Under Risk Management 

The holistic approach establishes within the risk assessment the need for understanding the security posture of the organization.  Once we understand the critical aspects of the organization, it is then and only then that can build the foundation to establishing a solid security base.  The assessment will help the organization recognize the direction of the business needs to start to build the security plan.  In the 21st century it is hard not to think globally for small, medium, and large businesses.  The establishment of the security foundation should follow the business that is currently in place and the future.  Establishing international standards for security is an approach to meet the business needs and protect the organization’s assets.  ISO 17799/27001 is the beginning in building a solid security core foundation that will address all forms of business that take place in the general business world and into the digital information age of global economics.  The holistic approach breaks down the walls and maps the process to the foundation to comply.  Thus cutting the cost and providing a good return on investment for organization and reducing confusion.
