Cybersecurity

The principles of zero trust serve as a framework for enacting cybersecurity policies and processes. However, how does one measure whether any ground is gained?

Solely measuring progress by determining if a breach has happened is not enough. Even though there are metrics that account for good practices, organizations have had difficulty relating these measurements to tangible actions.

CompTIA says, “determining the risk level of digital activities, assigning a financial impact and building a mitigation plan will provide not only a connection between cybersecurity and corporate health but also a structure for measurement.”

This structure can be used for a range of investments, including determining cyber insurance needs.
