Information Security Governance

The IT Governance Institute (ITGI - www.itgi.org) has published a short paper on information security governance for top management titled, "Information Security Governance: Guidance for Boards of Directors and Executive Management 2nd Edition".

The PDF document can be downloaded by clicking here.

ITGI provides the following summary of the document:

"With increased networking and a growing realization of how valuable information assets are, information security is recognized as one of the most important issues to address for all IT users. However, the subject of IT security is often presented in high-tech terms, and managers find it difficult to understand the issues and feel confident about how their organizations are managing security-related risks. Information Security Governance helps overcome these barriers by explaining information security in business terms and comes complete with tools and techniques to help managers uncover security-related problems."
