Don Turnblade, MBA, MS, CISSP’s Summary

Brand Image, the trust of repeat customers and your good name in the community are more than just signs of success, profit for your business comes through them. Treading the customer right helps your business survive. Strategic planning in Information Security builds the capacity to thrive.

Data breaches violate customer trust and create negative brand associations. Some of you are motivated to avoid explaining successive data breaches to the press, each of you can also stop gambling with $202 of cleanup cost per breached record or disaffecting customers to the tune of -2.6% of revenue per breach. 19% of business surveyed were reeling from multiple breaches per year and saw no end in sight; these ineffectively spent the same budget as similar sized companies, by revenue, yet they get low end security results. Put another way, 81% of companies with equivalent revenues are working smarter on their security but not any harder.

Working both smart and hard, 13% of companies have the same budget but make smarter uses of each Information Security dollar. They reduced adverse impacts by a factor of ten compared to similar size companies with low end security practices. The remaining 68% of companies operate their Information Security efforts with at half the budget it needs. Still, by working smart, they reduced adverse impacts by a factor of three compared to low end security practices. Better done Information Security can save you money and leverage gains in operational excellence to benefit your business. Trusted, business transactions go beyond protecting your customers, employees and business alliances; it is an investment in your brand image.
