Investment Prioritisation Services
Problem: A prominent US University was struggling to demonstrate to senior managers that their prioritisation of IT project spend, particularly cyber security related spend, was appropriate considering the cyber threats faced by the organisation.
Solution Applied: Using our Investment Prioritisation approach as a template, we helped the university design a method and tool set that facilitates meaningful debate and decisions across professionals with varying levels of IT savvy.
In addition to facilitating meaningful debate our tool set measures:
-
The unique probability of a cyber-breach for your organisation
-
The strategic fit between an organisation's cyber security approach organisational goals
-
The financial assurance and potential return of improving your cyber security capability
Result: The university staff report an improved dialogue across all stakeholders on the prioritisation of project resources and effort overall. In the context of that improved dialogue, the relative importance of specific cyber security initiatives has not only become clearer, but the quality of the dialogue around the nature of the threats facing the organisation has also strengthened.
