Building Calderbrook Group's three-year security investment case: a flat £2.40M budget and seventeen tools with no rationale, under a peer's 23-day shutdown, a 45 per cent insurance premium rise and a budget round; the bad year in money, with expected annual loss falling from £8.35M to £4.17M and the 1-in-20-year loss from £34.0M to £14.6M, under the Board's £15M tolerance; and the CIA exposure register of the services that matter, from the operations platform to payments, with Option B put to the Board at £5.40M, removing £2.32 of expected loss per pound.

Security Foundations Investment Case

A forty-hour Pro-level investment-command simulation run on a live security investment command board, where you are the newly appointed CISO of a UK manufacturer whose board has never funded security coherently — a flat budget, seventeen unexplained tools and a CEO asking “how much is enough?” — and you answer in money: the confidentiality, integrity and availability exposure of the services that matter, quantified with ranges, set against control maturity on evidence, priced as options, sequenced under a ceiling, insured where transfer fits, measured by indicators and defended to the Board as one decision.

What you'll learn

Translate the CIA triad into the services a business would miss, and quantify each exposure as calibrated frequencies, impact ranges, expected annual loss and a simulated tail tested against a board-owned tolerance.
Score control maturity on evidence, link every gap to the loss it governs, and price prevent, detect, recover, transfer and accept options at full cost of ownership, modelled together against a hurdle.
Build availability, integrity and confidentiality investment cases, fund no-regret quick wins, buy resilience through contracts and read insurance for what it actually pays.
Sequence a three-year roadmap under a budget ceiling, define benefits, indicators, kill criteria and gates, and defend the case to a board as one votable decision with owned residual exposure.
