Management Awareness Training

Management has the ultimate responsibility for implementing a data security program based on an assessment of business risk (corporate cost/benefit tradeoff) and an information system (IS) security risk assessment. All levels of management must be involved (and held accountable) to ensure the program is understood and properly implemented.
