CCITO, India under Raj. B. Lonsane’s stewardship is set to launch cyber crime prevention and information security governance for Indian IT Industry. Raj. B. Lonsane says that proper information security governance is imperative in achieving optimum data protection and prevent operational discontinuity. According to Raj. B. Lonsane, the benefits of realistic information security governance are considerable. When an organization is known for best practices in information security governance, stocks and shares of the company readily achieve significant increase in value. Besides an increase in goodwill, security governance provides operational and administrative fluidity by increasing predictability and reducing uncertainty of business operations.
Raj. B. Lonsane opines that this is the result of lowering inherent risks in information security to foreseeable and tolerable limits. Containment of security threats to predictable and acceptable levels significantly helps in effective allocation of limited security resources without compromising ability to prompt incidence response related to information security threats. An effective security policy is being assured along with its compliance enhancing ability to protect sensitive information during crucial business negotiations such as mergers or acquisitions.
According to Raj. B. Lonsane, effective information security governance adds value to the organisation by increasing level of assurance in decision making based on predictable outcomes which in turn improve customer and trading partner relationships due to low probability of a confidentiality breach. It also helps in developing new ways and means for executing electronic transactions and mitigating risk in process disruptions thereby reducing cost of operations.
Well organised information security governance provides protection from potential claims or legal liabilities that may result from negligence or absence of due diligence, increase ability in responding swiftly to security incidences. Raj. B. Lonsane says that prompt and credible responses to regulatory compliance notices or queries can help in protecting and maintaining organisation’s reputation and avoid damages due to non availability of sufficient information or delayed response.
