Building Productive Security Dialogues

When the accreditation process works well it is because these working relationships are underpinned by mutual trust.  However, when trust is lacking the accreditation process suffers: project stakeholders do not engage early enough in the process; insufficient time is available to implement security; and an incomplete view is formed of the information assurance risk to the business.  If this issue is not addressed, there is a real danger that security arguments will be ignored or overlooked in the drive to meet business needs, and exploit novel technologies.  However, improving security dialogues between accreditors and project stakeholders builds constructive interactions that have an overall positive benefit for the security posture of an organisation.  This three-day course, which will consist of structured workshops, has been designed to enable accreditors to build effective relationships with their project stakeholders and manage the accreditation dialogue more productively.
