Security arrangements around integrated corporate security strategy are tested by adversaries, not by auditors. Most security failures involving security strategy exploit a process gap rather than a technical one. Moving the practice within corporate security practice from written policy into daily practice is not achieved by a single decision. The professional literature on integrated corporate security strategy converges on a small set of controls that reliably work. Participants finish able to explain the corporate security practice capability to a non-specialist audience without losing precision. Participants who influence security strategy without directly controlling it will find the content directly usable. Participants test their assumptions about integrated corporate security strategy against scenarios designed to break weak ones. It treats security strategy as an operating discipline and equips participants to run it as one. The closing exercise tests whether the participant's plan for the corporate security practice discipline survives a hostile question.
