Security Policy and Process
Updating a financial firm’s security policy and procedures to protect against undue risk.
Business Issue
Outdated policies and procedures no longer supported this financial firm’s organizational structure and its security environment was becoming fragmented and inconsistent, adversely affecting the company’s risk profile. The company was beginning to outsource
a number of key functions and was moving from a centrally managed technology model
to a model where technology was managed by individual business units.
Edgile’s Solution
Edgile assisted in developing a new set of policies and procedures to drive security into
the design, selection, implementation and management of the company’s IT initiatives. Edgile teamed with key representatives of each of the business units to ensure enterprise-wide participation in the policy and procedure setting process.
Edgile also worked with a number of standards and industry groups to gather industry
best practices, research trends and develop new policies. These new policies needed
to take into account the unique characteristics of the client and specific regulatory requirements of the financial industry. With the support of the regional representatives, enterprise wide adoption of the new policies was quickly obtained.
Business Value
A new set of security policies and procedures is now in place, providing direction to technologists and business professionals throughout the organization. This foundation provides the enterprise with a more consistent level of security and protects the overall organization and business units from undue risk. Key regulatory requirements and compliance issues are now managed consistently in line with the firm's policies.
