ASIS Europe: Successful Transformation to a Cyber-Physical Corporate Security Organization

innogy Group Security has successfully managed the integration and convergence of Cyber and Physical Security, enabling a 360-degree view and boosting impact which is clearly recognized by top management. Digitization and the associated tightening of legal requirements make Cyber Security a critical success factor. By systematically assessing the Cyber Security Risk and the degree of maturity of existing controls, we are able to identify and prioritize the implementation of additional, necessary security measures. Allocation of Cyber Security outside IT ensures transparency, good governance and successful operating at eye level with CIO. The integration and convergence of Cyber and Physical Security enables a 360-degree view and boosts impact which is clearly recognized by top management. Top management commitment results from good governance, transparency, measurable and tangible impact as well as management language and education instead of technical terminology.
