In the high-stakes world of corporate risk management, cyber threats are as complex as they are relentless. Amidst this complex web of cyber threats, the Three Lines Model offers a beacon of clarity and structured defence, positioning it as a critical ally in cybersecurity risk management.
The Three Lines Model is a risk management framework delineating roles and responsibilities across operational management, risk and compliance functions, and internal audit. It has been the cornerstone of risk governance, proving its worth beyond the financial sector that first adopted it.
Its strength lies in its simplicity: a well-defined risk appetite, clear accountability, and a synergy of risk management and compliance systems.
This Tanium white paper is an invitation to reimagine the Three Lines Model’s application in an area that remains largely unchartered: cybersecurity risk management. The Three Lines Model is a powerful tool for leveraging trusted, shared data to:
- Make smarter decisions about risk
- Articulate and identify cybersecurity, risk, compliance and governance
- responsibilities more effectively
- Support risk management, compliance systems and reporting.
Explore how the Three Lines Model enhances cybersecurity governance while fostering an agile, responsive risk management culture capable of addressing dynamic cyber threats.
