Overview: Many leading-edge companies are in the initial planning stages of such an enterprise-security approach. Their strategy is to centralize leadership, but also to decentralize its implementation. In other words, the business is accountable for security and program implementation, and the business managers worry about the cost-risk trade-off. The governance process involves a number of major roles and responsibilities for the security. The group should provide security-risk oversight on behalf of the board of directors; accept and understand all security risks; settle exceptions brought before it by the security officer; and review and approve physical and digital security, privacy, and business-recovery policies. This paper provides few steps to start enterprise risk-management and risk-assessment process. The CIO's role is to help prioritize the risks associated with the company's data and the underlying computer systems or networks. Protection of these assets will in turn influence customer confidence, corporate reputation, and market valuation.
