Security Awareness Metrics

Each phase of the security awareness program creation process is important. Design, development and implementation are all critical. However, the work does not end with implementation. By monitoring, measuring, and assessing the effectiveness of your SAP, you can ensure that the program gets the right information to the right people. As a result, employees will know how to implement the program to keep your organization’s information secure. In addition, these measurements can help improve your program by identifying weaknesses and incorporating new techniques and technologies. To get started with this part of the development process, you need to analyze metrics and measurement methods to determine which will work best for your particular situation.

For this Discussion, you will evaluate security metrics based on what you know and have put together for Advanced Topologies, Inc. The “Information Security Metrics: Legal and Ethical Issues” case study from your textbook in this unit’s Learning Resources provides information on existing metrics and developing security metrics. 

Post a 350- to 500-word evaluation of the metrics in the case study. Include a description of at least two features of the security awareness plan you developed for Advanced Topologies, along with corresponding metrics that you feel would work well to measure them.  Evaluate the security awareness metrics from the case study and determine which ones you would employ to keep Advanced Topologies on track. Make sure to justify your recommendations.
