Engage Your Management with the Definitive ‘Security for Management’ Presentation Template

They’re the person who understands the risk and exposure, knows
how prepared the team and most important – what the gaps are and
how they can be best addressed.

Apart from actually securing the organization – and losing some
sleep over it – this individual has another equally important task:
to communicate the security risk, needs, and status to the
company’s management.

After all, the level of security rises in direct proportion to
the amount of invested resources, and management people are the
ones who decide and allocate them.

Since management people are not typically cybersecurity savvy,
engaging them can be challenging – one must find the balance
between high-level explanations, a direct connection between cyber
risk and operational loss, and an accurate description of current
status and challenges.

To address these needs, Cynet introduces the definitive
‘Security for Management’ PPT template^[1]. A first of its kind
presentation that encloses all the key elements that are required
to gain management mindshare and make them active partners.

It provides a concise presentation of the security issues that
matter and are also easily understood by a non-technical
audience.

The definitive ‘Security for
Management^[2]‘ PPT template uses the
NIST Cyber Security Framework as high-level guidelines to frame the
discussion and includes open sections which are to be filled out
with information speaking to the specific organization’s state.

Overall, the template assists in the following:

• Turning cybersecurity from abstract risk to business mission –
  map a vague risk notion presentable to real people that occupy
  specific roles, with the goal of securing the organization against
  a clearly tangible loss.
• Creating a common language, so security needs are easily
  understood – knowledge is power. Security knowledgeable management
  is instrumental in moving in the right direction. The NIST
  framework pillars – identify, protect, detect, respond, and recover
  – are easily understood and provide good ground for
  communication.
• Taking cybersecurity from a mere budget request to a continuous
  strategic journey – you cannot underestimate the importance of
  this. Understanding that being secure is a continuous process is
  paramount to any long-term planning.
• Introducing operational metrics to measure stature and progress
  – at the end of the day, everything has to translate into numbers.
  Either goals are achieved, or they are not. One way or the other,
  presenting results of the security products/security team brings
  transparency that creates trust.

The definitive ‘Security for Management’ presentation template
is ideal for anyone who works hard to achieve organizational
security and strives to communicate their work’s true value.
