Description:
As the risks faced by businesses grow ever more complex and threats proliferate, the job of those responsible for managing the security of the organization have got much harder.

The whole concept of security has also expanded way beyond the traditional remit and into areas such as protecting brand and intellectual property, preventing losses, anti-counterfeiting, cyber-terrorism, parallel trading and on-line fraud.

Many security departments are so busy fighting day-to-day fires that they risk missing less obvious but equally important threats as well as failing to "keep an eye" on the wider issue of 'converged' risk. As traditional risks converge with new ones, they can seriously jeopardize the organization's long term profitability, damage its brand or even threaten its very existence.
