Course Overview

Insider risk in security report writing is uncomfortable to discuss and expensive to ignore. A control on this part of corporate security practice that is never exercised is an assumption, not a defence. It concentrates on the parts of this aspect of corporate security practice that determine outcomes and treats the rest proportionately. The version of security report writing described in the manual and the version practised on the floor tend to diverge over time. It is written for people who have to make the practice within corporate security practice work with the resources they already have. The method assumes participants will be challenged on their handling of the corporate security practice discipline and prepares them for it. Mature organisations treat security report writing as a standing capability rather than a project that finishes. Participants gain a realistic view of what this part of corporate security practice costs and what it returns. It ends with a prioritised list of changes to the corporate security practice discipline that the participant is prepared to defend internally.
