Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The role of the information security manager has changed. Have you? The challenges you face as an information security manager (ISM) have increased enormously since the first edition of Once more unto the breach was published. What seemed exceptional in 2011 is the norm in 2015: vulnerabilities have been experienced across all operating systems, millions of individuals have been affected by data breaches, and countless well-known companies have fallen victim to cyber attacks. It’s your duty to ensure that your organisation isn’t next. The ISM’s information security responsibilities now cover all aspects of the organisation and its operations, and relate to the security of information in all forms, locations and transactions across the organisation – and beyond. Topics covered include: Project managementPhysical securityPassword managementConsumerisation (BYOD)Audit log managementVulnerability managementCloud computingIncident reportingPenetration testingLinking information security with records managementPrivacy impact assessmentsInternal auditing In this revised edition of Once more unto the breach, Andrea C Simmons uses her extensive experience to provide an important insight into the changing role and responsibilities of the ISM, walking you through a typical ISM’s year and highlighting the challenges and pitfalls of an information security programme. One of the key failures of security change management is that it is perceived as a project instead of a programme , and is therefore mistakenly assumed to have an end. Once more unto the breachexplains why information security is an ongoing process, using the role of project manager on a programme of change to highlight the various incidents and issues that arise on an almost daily basis – and often go unnoticed. A major challenge for the ISM is achieving all-important buy-in from their colleagues. Once more unto the breach explains how to express the importance of the tasks you are undertaking in language that executive management will understand. You’ll also discover the importance of having a camera with you at all times. For too long, security has been seen as more of an inhibitor than an enabler. Once more unto the breach is an invaluable resource that will help you improve this perception, and achieve better overall information protection results as a result.

She has made significant contributions to the development of standards and industry research, and is currently working on a PhD in information assurance.

Book excerpt: Companies facing the loss of a laptop or a compromised server have long waged battles on several fronts: investigating the source of the breach, identifying potentially criminal behavior, retrieving or replicating lost or manipulated data, and putting better security in place. As recently as seven years ago, the broader consequences of a data breach were largely deflected from the party on whose resource the data resided and instead rested essentially on those whose data was compromised. Today, however, with the patchwork quilt of domestic data breach statutes and penalties, most companies forging “unto the breach” would consider paying a ransom worthy of King Henry to avoid the loss of its consumers' identities through theft or manipulation. The cost to businesses of responding to data breaches continues to rise. According to the Ponemon Institute, the average cost of data breaches to the businesses it surveyed increased from $6.65 million in 2008 to $6.75 million in 2009. The per-record cost of the data breaches experienced by the companies it surveyed was $202 in 2009, only $2 per record more than the average in 2008 but a $66, or 38% overall increase since 2005. The most expensive data breach in the 2009 Ponemon survey was nearly $31 million; the last expensive was $750,000. In confronting a data breach, a company has to contend with a multitude of issues: the costs of replacing lost equipment, repairing the breach, and thwarting a potentially criminal act. Some specific industries have their own privacy laws. For example, financial firms must contend with the reporting requirements associated with the federal Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, and health care companies face broad reporting requirements under the new HITECH Act. Across the broader economy, however, attorneys and companies worry most about a thicket of data breach notification statutes enacted by 45 states and the District of Columbia. These statutes expose law firms and their clients to conflicting time limits, reporting requirements, fines, and potentially millions of dollars in penalties and civil liability - not to mention reputational risk. The 46 data breach notification statutes vary widely from state to state and, most critically, focus not on the location of the breach or where the company is incorporated, but on the residence of the victim. Therefore, a company facing a data breach must comply with the state laws of each of its affected consumers. A company's multi-state or Internet presence only extends the potential web of specific time limits and other often conflicting requirements for notifying consumers. This Article addresses the legal, technological, and policy issues surrounding U.S. data breach notification statutes and recommends steps that state and federal regulatory agencies should take to improve and harmonize those statutes. Part I of this Article provides background on the data breaches that gave rise to the enactment of notification statutes. Part II addresses the varying definitions of “personal information” in the state statutes - the data that is protected by the statute and whose breach must be revealed to consumers. Part III analyzes how states define the data breach itself, particularly whether states rely on a strict liability standard, on a risk assessment approach, or on a model that blends elements of both in determining how and when companies have to notify consumers of a breach. Part IV discusses the time limits companies face, penalties for non-compliance, litigation under the statutes, and state enforcement of the statutes. Finally, Part V presents specific recommendations for the state legislatures and enforcement agencies and for Congress, as well as for companies facing data breaches.

Book excerpt: Biases, blind spots and bonuses (or incentives more broadly) have led to numerous risk management disasters. Risk governance is a potential solution to these problems yet is not always as effective as we would like it to be. One reason for that is the current dearth of risk governance expertise. This book seeks to address this issue, providing: Understanding of the fundamental forces that cause disasters: the biases, blind spots and bonuses. This understanding is drawn from the disciplines of economics/finance and psychology; Explanation of the structures of risk governance and common challenges experienced in their use e.g. board risk committee, risk/compliance function, assurance function, risk appetite statement, risk disclosures; Thorough investigation of risk culture and its importance in risk governance, including the assessment of risk culture; Understanding of the mechanisms of executive compensation and how they link to risk management – one of the most difficult challenges confronting both risk and remuneration committees; Explanation of the risk management process (based on international standards ISO31000), including practical guidance on risk communication, analysis and treatment; Guidance on the management of strategic risk, emphasising the importance of scenario analysis; Application of these principles to cyber risk, climate risk – two pervasive risks affecting almost every organisation; Numerous case studies and examples drawn from various industries around the world; and Discussion of what has been learned about risk governance from the COVID-19 experience. The book is an essential guide for postgraduate students; participants in professional education programs in governance and risk management; directors; senior executives; risk, compliance and assurance professionals as well as conduct and prudential regulators worldwide.
