Book description

Information Security Management Metrics offers a step-by-step approach to developing and implementing relevant security metrics that are essential for effective security management. With case studies and tools for monitoring specific items, this book offers practical guidance for implementing metrics across an entire organization, thereby improving budget and resource allocation, and reducing the possibility that unanticipated events will have catastrophic impacts. The book presents metrics that complement those used by IT managers, and demonstrates how to make adjustments to metrics without interrupting business processes.
