You can’t mitigate and manage what you haven’t identified, organized and measured.

When it comes to IT Risk Management, most companies follow a simple process of identify - mitigate, identify - mitigate, identify - mitigate. It's a never-ending loop with no real progress over time and no real value created for the business.

The problems include overlapping risk management activities across multiple departments, repetitive audit and compliance agendas, ongoing budget requests without adequate business justification, a lack of consistent change control, hundreds or thousands of disjointed recovery plans, the inability to prioritize risk management activities against business objectives, and no clear view of an overall risk management program.

Consider these questions…

• Would you describe your IT Risk Management program as effective, efficient and economical?
• Are you able to manage all of your risks, even those you choose to accept?
• Is your program well organized and understood by all of your senior executives?
• How mature is your program compared to other business processes?

Fusion Framework Methodology

Fusion Risk Management has developed an innovative and proven methodology known as the five-step Fusion Framework. Through the Fusion Framework methodology, IT and operational risk is assessed holistically throughout the enterprise, and across multiple domains and compliance agendas, to provide a comprehensive view of risk management activities prioritized to business objectives.

The Fusion Framework brings together the full spectrum of IT and operational risk management activities as well as Governance and Compliance to establish a framework for decision-making that encompasses both tactical and strategic considerations.

Senior executives gain an ongoing business-oriented view of their overall IT and operational risk management program, while managers gain prioritized objectives, justification for budget requests, and action plans for remediation.

The Fusion Framework is aligned with leading standards, regulatory requirements, and generally accepted best practices across security, business continuity, disaster recovery, audit and compliance agendas. Developed by industry leaders at Fusion, the Fusion Framework methodology is the result of many years of executive management experience, direct feedback from large enterprise clients as well as a wide variety of consulting practitioners.
