Included in Full Research

概述

主要发现
  • 对于网络安全专业人员和高级领导层而言,审计发现往往意味着失败;或者,如果审计报告中不包含重大审计发现,容易产生盲目自信。

  • 安全审计之前,网络安全领导者可能迫切希望能够在审计发现正式发布之前,及早发现并解决问题。然而,安全审计之后,这种紧迫感可能会减弱,沟通和解决问题的速度也会随之放缓。

  • 安全审计之后,企业往往将主要精力放在已报告的审计发现上,以及如何调整控制措施并弥补不足,从而忽视了要持续保持警惕,更谈不上利用现有审计经验,为未来的安全审计做好充分准备。

建议

在安全审计完成之后,CISO等网络安全领导者及其团队应:

  • 将审计评级与网络风险影响挂钩,并与各利益相关方紧密合作,从而解读审计发现,确定应优先处理的问题。

  • 制定行动计划,继续实现审计目标。可与利益相关方合作,共同创建项目、分配责任、设定完成期限、监测项目进展、积极解决所有问题并定期向高级领导层通报进展。

  • 进行事后分析,重新审视和应用从过往安全审计中所汲取的经验教训,最大程度地利用已完成的审计发现,为未来审计做好充分准备。
