ESRM Board Initiative


ESRM Board Initiative – Charter Executive Summary
In 2016, the ASIS Board of Directors determined that Enterprise Security Risk
Management (ESRM) would be a driving underlying force in the global ASIS,
International strategic plan.
The stated goal of the board was “to make ASIS members more effective
security professionals and more valuable members of their organizations by
enabling them to better identify and manage the various aspects of security
risks they face… [leading to a] empowered membership, safer enterprises, a
more strategic approach to risk, and a more cost-effective security function​”.
This project will enable that strategic vision through a systematic integration of
ESRM principles in ASIS content and education, standards and guidelines,
marketing and messaging, certifications, and member support tools.
ESRM Board Initiative – Goals
• Provide educational courses and materials to ASIS membership on ESRM
and topics associated with ESRM.
• Educate the security industry at-large on the concepts of ESRM.
• Create an ESRM Standard/Guideline Framework and detailed document set
to align existing ASIS standards and recommended practices with the ESRM
model.
• Market the ESRM model appropriately and ensure the ASIS brand is tied
closely to the ESRM model and methodology.
• Provide tools and collateral to ASIS members to assist them in embracing
and implementing ESRM in their security programs
ESRM Board Initiative – Project Scope
The ESRM Board initiative will consist of four working “Value Streams” with deliverables
due from each stream.

ESRM DEFINED
Enterprise Security Risk Management (ESRM) is a
strategic security program management approach that ties
an organization’s security practice to its mission and goals
using globally established and accepted risk management
principles.
SECURITY IS ABOUT RISK MANAGEMENT
ESRM recognizes that security responsibilities are shared by both security and
business leadership, but that all final security decision making is the responsibility
of the business leaders. The role of the security leader in ESRM is to manage
security vulnerabilities to enterprise assets in a risk decision making partnership
with the organization leaders in charge of those assets.
​Managing the security decision making process requires:
• ​Educating internal business partners on the realistic impacts of security risks to
assets under their control.
• ​P​resenting potential security strategies to decision-making business leaders to
mitigate those impacts.
• ​Enacting​ the business leader’s ​security risk mitigation choice, driven by
business risk tolerance.

ESRM AND SECURITY

A mature ESRM program encompasses all


aspects of security risk mitigation practices:
physical security, cyber security,
information security, loss prevention,
organizational resilience, workplace
violence, fraud, threat management, brand
protection, travel safety, business
continuity, and all other practices
undertaken to prevent security risk impacts
to the enterprise.
