Organizations have become increasingly dependent on information technology as a fundamental enabler of their business activities. Today, even small interruptions or disturbances in the functions of this technology may bring disastrous losses in processing revenue and recording assets. Yet the risk profile of this technology has grown as widespread networking increases electronic access to organizational information resources. While a vast array of security technology is available, management must have the principles, knowledge and skills to decide when and whether to reduce the IT risks through the deployment of appropriate technical solutions, through the diversification of risk across organizational systems or through risk financing.
