Secure Insight ® Anaylsis
Secure Insight ®
The Secure Insight (SI) process consists of four phases. Although the participants of each phase vary among organizations, the SI analyst and an organization's lead security manager are usually the key participants.

The security manager usually relies on other security specialists or information managers within the organization to provide specialized expertise. The information captured during the first SI analysis provides a foundation that the organization can refine and improve in subsequent fiscal years or a change in the threat environment.

MSB can provide an initial analysis as well as continual support using data from similar organizations to provide insight into how other organizations are handling their threat environment.

PHASE 1—RISK ASSESSMENT
During Risk Assessment, the security manager and SI analyst determine which threats are potential risks and estimate the potential damage to the organization from successful attacks. The SI analyst helps the security manager tailor the risk assessment to specifically identify the organization's concerns and the impact from the threats. The result is a prioritized set of threats that reflect the organization's risks and represent the most important security concerns.

PHASE 2—BENEFIT ANALYSIS

Benefit Analysis identifies which risk mitigation strategies are most effective in the organization. The results of this phase can be used to conduct cost/benefit analyses and compare alternative countermeasures for threats.

PHASE 3—COVERAGE ANALYSIS
Coverage Analysis shows how well the organization's security countermeasures provide for defense in depth against selected threats. The organization can see how well the current security architecture protects against the top threats and how new technologies fit into the overall security architecture.

PHASE 4—SECURITY TRADEOFF ANALYSIS
Organizations select countermeasures based not only on effectiveness and cost, but how well the technology fits into the organization's culture and its effect on productivity. Factors, such as complexity, maintenance, etc., may also influence the decision to select security technologies, before they are purchased.

Security Tradeoff Analysis is an optional phase that shows security managers how to identify the important selection criteria and allows them to compare alternatives based on these criteria.
