Security Governance: Corporate Emergency Response Team (CERT)...

You can be a proud CxO if you can confidently say that in the event of a "Crisis" your employees are trained and ready to handle it.

You can never predict human behavior in the face of a sudden and shocking incident.

If your company doesn't have "Corporate Emergency Response Teams" (CERT) exercising test scenarios monthly or quarterly, you face the consequences of poor Operational Risk Management (ORM); losses that could have been prevented.

We are still amazed at how many “Executive Rows” we visit that still doesn’t have an AED within arms reach in the event of a heart attack.

Protecting corporate assets first begins with common sense and then expands exponentially from there.

How will you and your CxO’s provide your employees with the privacy as a U.S. citizen and remain vigilant with all potential insider threats?

Programatic Data Privacy and Integrity is the real issue at stake here.

“Enterprise Security Governance will provide the mechanisms and controls necessary for the Patriot Act to operate with the highest degree of assurance.”

Our civil liberties are still in force and will be there to protect everyone who is an American.

What we must not waiver on is the need to modernize, to re-equip and to create more robust "Correlation Centers”. Perhaps with AI and always with trained Intel Analysts.

The fact is, our intelligence analysts in enforcement are under attack every day by more savvy and increasingly powerful adversaries.

The establishment of a more robust, pervasive and technologically superior force to defend our Homeland today is still in the maturation stages.

What is paramount now at this stage of growth, is the framework for your own organizations “Security Governance” to be injected into each stakeholder.

The policies, ethics and controls must be there to guide those who are protecting our privacy while simultaneously allowing us to accelerate our countermeasures to Deter, Detect and Defend against those who will continue to attack us.

The Patriot Act will remain a powerful asset to those who wake every morning to ensure the Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability of information in our country and to protect the American people…
