Conducting an organizational self-assessment of the strengths and weaknesses of your cybersecurity program is a critical process that should be an ongoing activity for every organization.
By establishing a baseline security evaluation of your cybersecurity effectiveness, you can measure your progress over time and implement plans to better align your program to your business priorities. This helps prevent data security breaches, improves your security program, and ensures that investments in people and technology are aligned with your organizational priorities.

Step 4
Monitor Continuously
Implement ongoing, continuous monitoring to maintain visibility to your changing attack surface and key risks.
