In increasingly complex operating environments security managers are recognizing the need to move beyond handling just “guns, guards and gates”, and start to work more holistically with their organizations.
This involves delivering security knowledge and expertise right from the outset of strategic decisions and projects, and working with teams to avoid risks that lower the chance of delivery.
It also means communicating in the language of business performance to ensure stakeholders are aligned on the value of security, not just the costs, and information sharing that helps the organization work more productively.
