Security and the Organization: Roles and Responsibilities

Thursday, 9:30 AM EST

Everyone knows security is important. Very few organizations have a robust and comprehensive sense of whose responsibility it is, however. The consequence is that they have duct-tapped systems and a Policy of Hope that there will be no issues. (Spoiler: there will be)

We will review the various roles that most organizations need to fill and how they overlap as well as what should and can be expected from each of them.
