The ongoing study of business leaders also uncovered four considerations
that are top of mind, as they review and upgrade security and risk management,
including:

* fostering a holistic and integrated risk management culture that
features a chief security officer and that extends across the entire
organization;

* imagining the unimaginable, incorporating into risk positions the
potential impact of low probability events and adding "stress test"
models to risk-evaluation tools

* appreciating the significance of anti-western sentiments, recognizing
that corporations are on the frontlines of global influence and
outreach; and

* identifying best practices as they emerge and putting in place the
planning, analysis, monitoring and human resources necessary for their
implementation."
