While it has become increasingly apparent that individuals and
organizations need a security metrics program, it has been
exceedingly difficult to define exactly what that means in a given
situation. There are hundreds of metrics to choose from and an
organization's mission, industry, and size will affect the nature
and scope of the task as well as the metrics and combinations of
metrics appropriate to accomplish it. Finding the correct formula
for a specific scenario calls for a clear concise guide with which
to navigate this sea of information. Complete Guide to Security and
Privacy Metrics: Measuring Regulatory Compliance, Operational
Resilience, and ROI defines more than 900 ready to use metrics that
measure compliance, resiliency, and return on investment. The
author explains what needs to be measured, why and how to measure
it, and how to tie security and privacy metrics to business goals
and objectives. The book addresses measuring compliance with
current legislation, regulations, and standards in the US, EC, and
Canada including Sarbanes-Oxley, HIPAA, and the Data Protection
Act-UK. The metrics covered are scaled by information sensitivity,
asset criticality, and risk, and aligned to correspond with
different lateral and hierarchical functions within an
organization. They are flexible in terms of measurement boundaries
and can be implemented individually or in combination to assess a
single security control, system, network, region, or the entire
enterprise at any point in the security engineering lifecycle. The
text includes numerous examples and sample reports to illustrate
these concepts and stresses a complete assessment by evaluating the
interaction and interdependence between physical, personnel, IT,
and operational security controls. Bringing a wealth of complex
information into comprehensible focus, this book is ideal for
corporate officers, security managers, internal and independent
auditors, and system developers and integrators.
