Organized in a data driven improvement cycle RDMAICS (Recognize, Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control and Sustain), check the…


• Example pre-filled Self-Assessment Excel Dashboard to get familiar with results generation


Then find your goals...

STEP 2: Set concrete goals, tasks, dates and numbers you can track

Featuring 992 new and updated case-based questions, organized into seven core areas of process design, this Self-Assessment will help you identify areas in which IBM Security Access improvements can be made.

Examples; 10 of the 992 standard requirements:


1. Do you ensure that security threat detection systems using signatures, lists, or behavioral patterns are updated across all infrastructure components within industry accepted time frames?
   
   

2. Which strong authentication mechanism requires IBM Security Access Manager for Enterprise Single Sign On to be deployed in a stand alone or cluster installation of the IMS Server?
   
   

3. Does the messaging network carry mission critical, high value messages where loss or compromise would result in catastrophic financial or reputational impact?
   
   

4. How do you ensure that systems and applications are appropriately and sufficiently isolated and protecting against malicious server to server communication?
   
   

5. Will the new or changed processes or applications threaten your organizations business continuity or increase information security risks?
   
   

6. Which security capabilities are part of the Cloud Governance/Management macro pattern of the Cloud Enabled Data Center adoption pattern?
   
   

7. What needs to be done when going into production with the IBM Security products from the Identity and Access Assurance software bundle?
   
   

8. What are the aspects of Mobile deployments that are unique as compared to other deployments and therefore heighten security concerns?
   
   

9. Does the problem appear to be system wide or isolated to IBM Security Access Manager for Enterprise Single Sign On or its components?
   
   

10. Which combination of products out of the IBM Security Identity and Access Assurance offering would you recommend to be implemented?
    
    


Complete the self assessment, on your own or with a team in a workshop setting. Use the workbook together with the self assessment requirements spreadsheet:
