Security Outcomes Sprint

Ascent Global, Inc.

Understand the Business Value of Your Cybersecurity Investments

Most businesses still view cybersecurity investments as a cost center instead of a business value driver. Risk reduction alone is no longer sufficient to justify new security investments. We believe the best approach to recession planning or pitching your annual budget to your executives is simple: speak their language. Communicate your proposed investment through a jargon-free level of rationale.

Ascent’s Security Outcomes Sprint is a complimentary 2-session engagement, prioritizing cybersecurity initiatives to your business’s greatest potential outcome. Ascent Solutions’ Security Outcomes Sprint elevates the business case for security investments by aligning them to: ■ Productivity efficiencies ■ Operational efficiencies ■ Reductions in Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) ■ Potential revenue losses from business continuity gaps ■ Revenue directed away from growth and profit toward patching brand reputation or fraud damage

SESSION 1 (2.5 hours) Background ■ What your peers are doing and why ■ Why tie business outcomes to cyber investments ■ The case for platform economization
