Design business continuity arrangements covering security certification management.
Managing International Security Certifications and Accreditations
A senior-level treatment of security certification management, focused on what changes outcomes.
Course Overview
Security arrangements around security certification management are tested by adversaries, not by auditors. A control on this aspect of corporate security practice that is never exercised is an assumption, not a defence. Benchmarking exercises repeatedly place this strand of corporate security practice among the areas with the widest performance spread. The programme converts security certification management from an area of general awareness into a set of repeatable practices. The programme works equally well for those formalising the corporate security practice capability for the first time and those improving an existing approach. Each session closes with a decision the participant must justify about this area of corporate security practice in their own setting. The difficulty is not agreeing that security certification management matters — it is deciding what to stop doing to make room for it. Participants develop a defensible line of reasoning for the choices they make about this part of corporate security practice. Work concludes with a self-assessment of the practice within corporate security practice that participants can repeat annually.
