Identifying which assets are priorities is no easy task. Internal departments often need more alignment on classifying intellectual property and other important data.
This understanding is necessary for security controls to be applied to all assets equally, which results in limited security funds and effort going to the wrong places. This may leave you asking:
- What parts of the business are exposed to the greatest risk?
- What should we classify as a critical asset?
- How should we apply cyber risk controls?
- How do we protect our business-critical software, applications, infrastructure, and data from a failure in the supply chain?
