Hacker attacks on servers and entire networks, threats from faulty operation, playing games or illusions of grandeur, industrial spying and stolen information, publication of confidential internal records, lost information. Business problems and risks within IT security are not to be underestimated!

In larger companies and official agencies, it is not viable to limit IT security to setting up and maintaining a firewall. Such a traditional security measure only provides a protective function. Successful attacks can also be expected in a secured IT system. New variations and methods are developed daily that have only one goal: breaking through and undermining previous security measures. IT security management not only includes prevention but also detection and response, and it is regarded as a uniform process.
 

The objective of IT security management is to protect the data and services that provide an information basis, in accordance with their value for the enterprise, in terms of confidentiality, integrity and availability.
 

Benefits of IT Security Management:

• ensure the achievement of corporate objectives
• ensure the continuity of the business processes
• protect against losses (monetary, image, customers)
• secure the fulfillment of agreements and legal obligations
• permit the control of present risks with economic material application
• convey confidence in the structures through risk recognition and measures
