Information security can seem like an overwhelming task, especially when there's so much to consider and so many questions to ask.

With the right KPI metrics for information security though, we can ensure that all of our bases are covered!

Are you asking yourself who is in charge of information security?

Don't worry and have a CISO or officer designated to manage your organization's information security requirements.

Plus, keep yourselves updated with all the latest developments in the industry and make sure your security controls comply with all legal and legislative needs.

To provide an extra layer of security, backup safeguards are maintained at an alternate site and have strong business and legal requirements in place.

Furthermore, an Information Security Management System helps to protect against data breaches and existing communication procedures and policies help mitigate risk.

Lastly, data encryption helps shield from those up to no good, providing peace of mind.

The secret weapon of success: Harness the power of Information Security KPIs and start getting the results you want:

1) Average uptime of security infrastructure – Measures the reliability of information security services such as firewall, antivirus and encryption software.

2) Number of security breaches – reflects the efficacy of your company’s security policies and procedures.

3) Percentage of suspicious network activity blocked – Indicates how many malicious attempts were stopped by security measures.

4) Average time to detect a vulnerability – Measures how quickly you can identify weaknesses that could be exploited.

5) Time to patch critical vulnerabilities – Demonstrates how rapidly IT can apply system patches in response to new threats.

6) Data leakage rate – Shows how much confidential data is exposed to unauthorized access.

7) Average response time for threat detection – Determines whether you are able to quickly spot infiltrations before data is compromised.

8) Number of systems patched on time – Refers to the percentage of networks bearing current systems updates.

9) Penetration testing success rate – Evaluates the effectiveness of penetration testing scenarios.

10) Compliance rate with industry regulations – Measures whether the organization is up to date with the required security standards for their sector.
