Your Challenge

  • Most organizations acquire security infrastructure in an ad hoc and reactive manner.
  • Making ad hoc acquisitions involves unplanned expenditures resulting in inconsistent security, which doesn't match organizational goals.
  • This solution set will guide you through the process of developing a formal plan that outlines and guides security infrastructure acquisitions.

Our Advice

Critical Insight
  • Plans define appropriate security architecture and accompany it with an implementation roadmap, effectively defining the steps the enterprise will take to build its security capability.
  • Studies show that enterprises that deploy security solutions according to a plan have better security, and spend less money to achieve it.
Impact and Result
  • The average cost, in time and dollars, to create a fully custom security plan is 8 months and over $100,000. Upon completion of the work outlined in this solution set you will have created that plan without those expenditures.

Get to Action

  1. Get a crash course in security planning.

    Understand what a plan is, how it's constructed, and how to make best use of it.

  2. Develop an architecture and roadmap

    Determine the appropriate tools to use for enterprise protection, and the optimal order in which to deploy them.
