Training course outline

Security leadership is becoming increasingly recognised as the value behind driving growth and success, acting as a business enabler, influencing organisations’ dynamics. This often requires the ability of strategic approaches to implementing security and a deep understanding of business-critical functions affected by it. It is therefore important to combine effective leadership styles that enable decision-makers to prioritise their efforts to minimise security risks and threats to better realise business strategy and vision. Delegates are exposed to several leadership styles, technologies and tools that enable them to better address and mitigate information security threats and quantify the impact of adopting emerging digital technologies.
