The importance of enterprise risk management platforms

The modern business landscape continues to evolve, but enterprises are reluctant to change alongside it. Many organizations lack the means or desire to establish the platforms and protocols that enterprise risk management models require, and in this climate, not taking risk profiles into account may lead to disruption and disaster.

In this recent episode of Security DNA, host Steve Lasky of SecurityInfoWatch.com, alongside Lynn Mattice, President and Founder of the National Economic Security Alliance (NESA), discuss the importance of comprehensive risk management platforms and how organizations can best execute them to combat increasingly complex security threats.

Lynn Mattice: “Senior executives need to grasp the concept that if it can happen, it can happen to you.”

NESA is a nonpartisan, grassroots initiative founded to educate public and private sector enterprises about the broad range of risks and hazards they face. Through NESA, Mattice hopes to educate the organization’s constituency about the global threat economy and the measures that can be taken to mitigate exposure to these risks. Mattice also serves as Managing Director of Mattice & Associates LLC, as a Leadership Council Member for the National Small Business Association, and an Emeritus Senior Fellow at Auburn University’s Center for Cyber and Homeland Security. He has over 35 years of experience as a senior executive with major US-based global corporations.
