For the first time, in one practical reference guide, Controller’s now have everything they need to know about corporate security – from security budgeting, performance measurement, and contract security, to controlling the cost of security and at the same time to know what’s needed to meet today’s workplace threats.

You can’t successfully operate a business without a sufficiently safe and secure environment, of course, but at the same time, every dollar allocated to protecting the company is a dollar that could otherwise be spent to advance the business.

However, there is a growing recognition among leading organizations that a more progressive approach to oversight and evaluation of security performance is a business necessity, and in certain environments is even a way to enhance business opportunity. And, financial oversight of security today—in light of security challenges presented by federal compliance, new technology, evolving workforce trends, major disaster events, and growing business interdependence—is no longer optional. It has become imperative for you to monitor and assess your protection activities more closely than ever!

By describing and explaining best practices and benchmarks in detail and providing in-depth case studies, this comprehensive guide from IOMA's Institute of Finance & Management (IOFM) will lead you through the challenges you will encounter as you embark on this critical path. You will be better prepared by having in hand this strategic tool for effectively bringing together and managing disparate protection activities while minimizing cost and maximizing value.

Divided into 8 sections, this 320-page guide will help you:

• Assess and develop security budgets, evaluate ROI and measure security performance
• Determine if you need to contract with a security company and if so, how to best choose and develop a relationship
• Take control or reduce the amount of money you spend on security by examining the strategies other companies are using
• Establish performance measures and use them to spur continuous improvement and identify problems in your security operation
• Determine what technology to use to prepare security department staff to serve a higher business purpose
• Develop strategies to allow security personnel to evolve, provide greater value, take on new responsibilities, and better serve company goals
• Use risk assessment techniques to effectively shape a security program
• Set up effective protection policies & procedures to encourage positive security behavior within your organization
• Use the most successful strategies for cutting costs without increasing risk
• And more!

You'll also get over 230 charts and tables that provide you with a wealth of information to benchmark against, for example:

This guide will also enable you to develop a coherent budget framework around your defense and risk reduction strategies, forge a comprehensive financial view of your security exposures, and be proactive regarding security, and its costs, rather than simply saying no to the latest requests.
