Technical Briefing Paper: Developing an effective Security Strategy

Security is often mistakenly viewed as an IT function, typically delegated to technology leaders. This misconception stems from the fact that most security incidents involve attacks on information assets via technology. However, security is primarily a business function, focused on supporting business objectives.

Developing and implementing a security strategy enables organisations to focus on the specific risks
they face. A strategic approach promotes proactive security measures, ensuring preparedness and
thoughtfulness rather than reactive, improvised actions that might fail at critical times. A well-planned security strategy identifies where to prioritise security investments, arming the organisation with valuable insights to support business objectives and strategic roadmaps.
