Risks are constantly changing for organizations based on various factors and hence the need for proper management to maintain and increase competitive edge. To keep up with the competition, organizations must design and create a safe environment in which business processes and procedures can function effectively and efficiently.

This environment must maintain confidentiality and privacy and assure the integrity of organizational and customers’ data. These objectives are met through the application of the principles of risk management.

Assessing and understanding the risks for your own organization helps to establish appropriate risk management. In turn, this will ensure appropriate incident management and recovery when information security is compromised. In addition, organizations should have:

• A programmatic approach to Policy and Standards, including an Information Security Policy, supported by realistic and workable processes and procedures
• A well-informed, well-trained workforce
• Appropriate levels of vigilance
