IT Security Governance - CGI

IT Security GovernanceA holistic attacks are not strictly focused on government entities; instead, there have been numerous incidents in recent years where large corporations have also been penetrated, and their data covertly accessed over a period of years without their knowledge. In fact, enhanced cybersecurity emerged as a top IT priority across industries during the annual, in-person, in-depth client interviews that CGI conducted in 2015*. So while businesses in certain industries, such as aerospace and strategic resources, may be prime targets for nation-state cyberespionage, others dealing with largescale financial and credit card assets are equally attractive to international criminal groups. Today s threat actors do not rely solely on defeating technical safeguards. Instead, they probe and exploit a range of weaknesses found in the target environment.

GOVERNANCE Security governance is the glue that binds together all the core elements of cyber defense and effective risk management. Without it, dangers persist and the resulting compromise of assets is inevitable. Moreover, senior leadership is unaware of their organization’s risk exposure, for which they will ultimately be held accountable.
