GV.RR-03.044
Has your organization allocated sufficient resources (people, processes, and technology) to effectively implement and maintain your cybersecurity strategy?
Explanation
This question assesses whether your organization has dedicated appropriate resources across three critical dimensions needed to execute your cybersecurity strategy. Without adequate staffing (security professionals, trained personnel), well-defined processes (security procedures, incident response plans), and appropriate technical resources (security tools, monitoring systems), even the most comprehensive cybersecurity strategy will fail in practice. Resource allocation should be aligned with your organization's risk profile and security objectives. Evidence could include: an organizational chart showing security team staffing levels, documentation of security processes and their owners, budget allocations for security technologies, and a resource gap analysis comparing current resources against security requirements.
Implementation Example
