Security Team Job Descriptions

Security and Compliance are driven by both internal and external forces

As a greater portion of the operations are done via the Internet, more critical assets of the enterprise are available outside of the traditional brick and mortar of the business. At the same time there is extensive exposure to cyberattack and breaches to confidential, proprietary, and sensitive information.

Those factors alone require highly focused security processes. But that is not all there are mandated compliance issues that need to be included with the security of the data. For that reason, many larger enterprises, and some much smaller, have developed a Security Management Team.
