Understanding the Enterprise Impact of Cybersecurity Risks

CASP+ Exam Objective 1.1: Summarize business and industry influences and associated security risks

To sufficiently protect an organization, IT pros must know the internal and external influences for IT risk, including the impact of new products, technologies, mergers, partnerships, de-perimeterization and government regulations on an organization’s security posture.

A cybersecurity professional who has CASP+ understands the concepts of changing business models and strategies based on enterprise risk. COVID-19 put pressure on organizations to quickly change their business models to survive. IT pros who have CASP+ can adapt an enterprise’s security posture to new business models and ensure the organization continues operations.
2. Addressing Organizational Risks with Policy

CASP+ Exam Objective 1.2: Compare and contrast security, privacy policies and procedures based on organizational requirements

IT pros must support the following to properly protect an organization:
Policy and process life cycle management
Legal compliance
Business impact analysis (BIA)
Security requirements for requests for proposals (RFPs)
Support of policy development
Standard cybersecurity practices

CASP+ certification holders understand best practices in emerging risks, such as COVID-19, and know how to help support the development of policies containing standard security practices that incorporate a pandemic.
