Protect information and intellectual property within security threat mapping.
Building Regional and Global Security Threat Maps
A senior-level treatment of security threat mapping, focused on what changes outcomes.
Course Overview
Insider risk in security threat mapping is uncomfortable to discuss and expensive to ignore. Most security failures involving this area of corporate security practice exploit a process gap rather than a technical one. The programme uses small-group work so that each participant's treatment of the corporate security practice discipline is examined, not just described. Across sectors, teams that rehearse security threat mapping outperform teams that only plan it. What blocks progress on this aspect of corporate security practice is usually unclear ownership rather than unclear intent. The course leaves participants able to diagnose weaknesses in the corporate security practice discipline before they become incidents. It suits anyone whose decisions touch security threat mapping, in large organisations and small ones alike. The course covers the wider corporate security practice agenda at the level of detail needed to act, and stops there. The closing exercise tests whether the participant's plan for this area of corporate security practice survives a hostile question.
