Security Management Processes Toolkit
Does your organization have an effective process in place to report the security status of the information system and its environment of operation to the authorizing officials and other designated senior leaders within the organization on an ongoing basis? Are the results of the security categorization process for the information system consistent with the organizations enterprise architecture and commitment to protecting organizational mission/business processes? When using the content management system, are process participants able to see only what their security privileges enable them to see (participants see only what they need to perform their activities)? Do you review and assess the degree of reliance on service providers for information processing and technology support including security management. How effective have the service providers been? What specific factors (duration management, yield curve positioning, sector selection, security selection, asset allocation, maturity structure) are integral to the portfolio construction process? Is the information security risk assessment process sufficient to identify risks associated with loss of confidentiality, integrity and availability for information within the scope of the ISMS? Does the contract require your organization to have a policy and process for ensuring security and privacy requirements of your organization contract is properly specified to its contractors? Do you apply independently validated security and risk management controls over the testing process, all relevant people involved, key aspects of target systems and any client data affected? Follow-up of an incident should include regular status reporting, describing new controls and lessons learned to improve future performance. The most important element of the follow-up stage is performing a postmortem analysis of the response procedure itself. Exactly what happened and at what times? How is this process managed? What is the process for adding services or new technologies. For example, assuming that your organization adopted a deep-packet-inspection firewall technology, how would this be supported and incorporated into an SLA?
Save time, empower your teams and effectively upgrade your processes with access to this practical Security Management Processes Toolkit and guide. Address common challenges with best-practice templates, step-by-step work plans and maturity diagnostics for any Security Management Processes related project.
Download the Toolkit and in Three Steps you will be guided from idea to implementation results.

REVIEWS:
-----------------------------------------------------------
'After utilizing toolkits from The Art of Service, I was able to identify threats within my organization to which I was completely unaware. Using my team’s knowledge as a competitive advantage, we now have superior systems that save time and energy.'
'As a new Chief Technology Officer, I was feeling unprepared and inadequate to be successful in my role. I ordered an IT toolkit Sunday night and was prepared Monday morning to shed light on areas of improvement within my organization. I no longer felt overwhelmed and intimidated, I was excited to share what I had learned.'
'I used the questionnaires to interview members of my team. I never knew how many insights we could produce collectively with our internal knowledge.'
'I usually work until at least 8pm on weeknights. The Art of Service questionnaire saved me so much time and worry that Thursday night I attended my son’s soccer game without sacrificing my professional obligations.'
'After purchasing The Art of Service toolkit, I was able to identify areas where my company was not in compliance that could have put my job at risk. I looked like a hero when I proactively educated my team on the risks and presented a solid solution.'
'I spent months shopping for an external consultant before realizing that The Art of Service would allow my team to consult themselves! Not only did we save time not catching a consultant up to speed, we were able to keep our company information and industry secrets confidential.'
'Everyday there are new regulations and processes in my industry. The Art of Service toolkit has kept me ahead by using AI technology to constantly update the toolkits and address emerging needs.'
'I customized The Art of Service toolkit to focus specifically on the concerns of my role and industry. I didn’t have to waste time with a generic self-help book that wasn’t tailored to my exact situation.'
'Many of our competitors have asked us about our secret sauce. When I tell them it’s the knowledge we have in-house, they never believe me. Little do they know The Art of Service toolkits are working behind the scenes.'
'One of my friends hired a consultant who used the knowledge gained working with his company to advise their competitor. Talk about a competitive disadvantage! The Art of Service allowed us to keep our knowledge from walking out the door along with a huge portion of our budget in consulting fees.'
'Honestly, I didn’t know what I didn’t know. Before purchasing The Art of Service, I didn’t realize how many areas of my business needed to be refreshed and improved. I am so relieved The Art of Service was there to highlight our blind spots.'
'Before The Art of Service, I waited eagerly for consulting company reports to come out each month. These reports kept us up to speed but provided little value because they put our competitors on the same playing field. With The Art of Service, we have uncovered unique insights to drive our business forward.'
'Instead of investing extensive resources into an external consultant, we can spend more of our budget towards pursuing our company goals and objectives…while also spending a little more on corporate holiday parties.'
'The risk of our competitors getting ahead has been mitigated because The Art of Service has provided us with a 360-degree view of threats within our organization before they even arise.'
