Summary

High-performance IT is the pursuit of continuously improving business results through technology. It rests on three principles. IT must: 1) continuously align with the business; 2) build trust on a foundation of security, privacy, and resilience; and 3) empower the business to readily adapt to changing market conditions and customer demand. By embracing high-performance IT, CISOs can transition the perception of security, privacy, and risk management from obstructionist cost centers to functions that drive trusted relationships with customers, employees, and partners and fuel long-term success. This report helps security and risk leaders begin their high-performance IT journeys.
