security risk management using internal controls
Rather than treating security as an independent technical concern, it should be considered as just another risk that needs to be managed alongside all other business risks. An Internal Controls approach to security risk management is proposed whereby automated catalogues are built in order to provide information about security controls used to mitigate risk in business processes. Real-time evaluation and measurement of control efficacy in this model become essential to the management of risk using these catalogues and a risk-profile based approach to measuring security risk is described.
