Description

Smart Security: Practices that Increase Business Profits is a video presentation. Length: 58 minutes.

Smart Security: Practices that Increase Business Profits offers proven concepts and practices for those seeking new and creative ways to understand and shape security that are tailored to the needs of their business or organization. In this 58-minute Proven Practices presentation, presenter J. David Quilter discusses how a fully integrated security program increases business profits while delivering smart security practices at the same time.

The term "smart security" means to be simple, knowledgeable of both business and security basics, knowledgeable of the business market, and having a clear understanding of business principals. Using this definition, the presentation covers how to win and sustain executive leadership, deal with business realities, identify the root causes of business losses, and how to hold a frank and open discussion on loss when dealing with business risk.

Smart Security: Practices that Increase Business Profits is a part of Elsevier’s Security Executive Council Risk Management Portfolio, a collection of real world solutions and "how-to" guidelines that equip executives, practitioners, and educators with proven information for successful security and risk management programs.
