As cybersecurity risks grow, what used to be a siloed responsibility is revisited. Adapting to the new cyber reality starts with building personal knowledge and skills, then moving to organization-wide culture, collaboration and responsibility. Recently, Dan Cole from AXELOS Global Best Practice spoke at our webinar on how ITSM can play a key role to step up cyber resilience in organizations by taking the lead to build a collaboration plan.
Building a Collaboration Plan
Dan explained that ITSM works with all areas of the cyber resilience chain from information owners to end users, business sponsors, and security specialists. The organization’s critical information assets sit on services owned and run by ITSM on behalf of the business. To build a collaboration plan, Dan highlighted the five areas in the organization that need to be involved in building a collaboration plan:
- Start at Home: IT and Service Management
- Specialist Skills: Information Security
- Setting the tone: Board and Leadership team
- Understanding the value: information owners
- Everyone is involved: IT users and staff
Cyber Resilience – Leveraging ITIL
Lifecycle management is a key part to build a resilient organization. Cyber resilience is built on the ITIL lifecycle management. ITIL being a proven way to manage IT processes in organizations, you can leverage the existing lifecycle approach, have everybody collaborating and working across the same management system.
