The CSO's Relationship to Organizational Resilience Management
Posted on Tue, Oct 11, 2011
This is the ninth article in a series entitled: Data Management and Organizational Resilience. ASG is offering a series of blogs as well as a white paper that aggregates these blogs into one download, with the intent to make the case for data management and its correlation to the Organizational Resilience Management function.
As we move forward it is important to consider Machiavelli: “There is nothing more difficult to take in hand, more perilous to conduct, or more uncertain in its success, than to take the lead in the introduction of a new order of things, because the innovator has for enemies all those who have done well under the old conditions, and lukewarm defenders in those who may do well under the new.”
So the question becomes: Are you an emissary of change? As a security professional are you willing to consider new concepts such as Organizational Resilience Management or are you content with supporting the status quo? Do you understand the impact (the cost of standing still) of the status quo on your enterprise? The province of the Security Manager now includes having a comprehensive management systems approach for prevention, protection, preparedness, response, mitigation, continuity, and recovery for disruptive incidents resulting in an emergency, crisis, or disaster.
