Not surprisingly, the world's largest and most successful companies are
also the most threatened. Challenges from terrorists, organised crime,
disgruntled employees, and opportunist interest groups will always cluster
around the size, spread, and recognition of well-known companies, brands,
and names.
In the US, the CIA and Microsoft vied for the unenviable #1 spot on aggressive
hack-attacks for years. It is a boon to attackers to score victories against
the known, not the unknown. That doesn't mean to say that the business
success of Mom & Pop enterprise in Doomsdale, Arizona is safe in its
relative anonymity, but it does mean that bigger, celebrity enterprises
stand on the front line of sophisticated attention and attacks. This is
where the principal action is, and where we primarily operate.
Notwithstanding the price of fame, or infamy as the attackers perceive
it, whatever the size of your business, and whatever areas you operate
in, there are two fundamental elements that affect what you do and your
business success.
These are, the quality of the information you have to build and manage
your business, and the quality of the people you work with, both inside
and outside your operation.
Both these critical business success factors have enormous overlaps and
dependencies, but as with anything that can be traded or exchanged, there
will always be little gaps or weaknesses in the links and joints, which
will be exploited by those able to identify them. For this reason alone,
we believe that a third critical success factor has a role to play in
helping your success - security management.
Burrill Green can help you with questions like
-
Should you include security
issues in your annual and strategic business plans? What is the extent
of the sphere of influence, scope, and potential, for Business Integrated
Security?.
Are you confident that
you are doing all you can to ensure that your business and your people
are safe, your assets protected from theft and wilful damage, and your
sensitive and proprietary information is being kept safe and private?.
How can the shift from
seeing security as a cost of doing business, a transaction cost, to seeing
security as a discrete profit and performance contributor, be best effected?.
We can show you how
to assess and apply relevant security management steps in your current
business to support its safe and sustained growth success through these
new roles.
