Network Security White Papers
Measuring and Evaluating an Effective Security Culture
Overview Nowadays network-connected businesses and organizations face ever-increasing security threats. In response, they need a focus on security that goes beyond ad-hoc or reactive measures. Nowadays businesses require a culture of security that is pervasive throughout the organization, aligning people and practices with security goals. And they need to continually measure and assess the effectiveness of their security efforts. Network security technologies make it possible to measure attempts and incidents of online intrusion and disruption. But defining metrics for measuring the effectiveness of a security culture requires a closer look at the dynamics of the organization. This paper focuses on the behavioral dimension of security and how to measure the effectiveness of a security culture.
