Cochise College Information Security Programs
Business, technology, and the cyber-threat landscape are continuously evolving. Additionally, the scale of information processing, storage, use, sharing, and communicating is continuously growing. Attempting to apply protection capabilities across all uses of information in all cases and within all technology implementations at all times is infeasible. Even if such an approach were feasible, the time to implement would make the approach irrelevant given the pace of business, technology, and cyberthreat evolution. The Information Security Program will therefore implement a Risk Management approach to protecting the information assets and operations of the college.
In accordance with the Cochise College Information Security Program, the Information Security Risk Management Program provides Cochise College’s framework for the management of Information Security risks. The program covers the following risk management areas:
- Performance of Risk Assessments
- Monitoring of risk response initiatives
- Measuring effectiveness of risk reduction controls
- Communicating risk posture to Cochise College leadership and governance bodies
