If you have or need a cyber security program, the following steps can be used to develop or improve it.
- Establish a governance model. This can be a document or set of documents or a document management product. Start simple. Governance evolves with the program.
- Identify the information assets and the technologies that use and manage them.
- Consider threats and vulnerabilities. What could attack your business? What could disrupt or compromise your information assets? Where is your business vulnerable to an attack? Deploy cyber security awareness training,
- Consider the risks. What could happen to the information assets? What is the likelihood? What impact would losing them have on your business?
- Implement controls for each information asset risk. Consider how the assets can be protected and how they can be recovered if compromised.
- Plan response and recovery to handle incidents quickly and minimize damage.
- Monitor and measure threats, vulnerabilities, risks, and controls. Periodically assess the program, making adjustments as needed.
Lots of detail in that, but you can be flexible on the level.
