April 6, 2007—The Security Executive Council (SEC) has activated its International Security Metrics and Benchmarking Database. This tool allows security executives to measure the business value of their own security operations by creating benchmarks based on real, active data from organizations across the globe, says SEC.
Each month, the SEC will post four or five new metrics-related questions on its Web site. Respondents who take the surveys will receive free benchmark data via e-mail once the responses reach a critical mass.
All information is submitted in a manner to protect the privacy of each organization.
The survey questions cover 13 categories from the council’s publication Measures and Metrics in Corporate Security, a management guide written by SEC Emeritus Faculty Member George K. Campbell, former CSO at Fidelity Investments.
