Building a Comprehensive IT Risk Management Program

Overview The need for effective IT risk management has become significantly more important as organizations have become more dependent on their IT systems for their livelihood and success. While many organizations feel they have a solid grasp on their IT risk concerns, too often their IT risk management efforts have serious gaps and vulnerabilities due to a failure to take a holistic approach to IT risk. Effective IT risk management requires a comprehensive approach that addresses all four areas of IT risk: security, availability, performance, and compliance. It requires an IT risk management program that follows a proven model that takes into account an organization's unique culture and attitudes toward risk.
