Within the security industry, a true thought leader is willing to share both successes and failures.

Developing an intelligence model for your security function will drive informed decision-making and aid in operational continuity.

Building a strong, integrated security culture begins with connection at all levels of an organization.

The International Security Management Association aids senior security executives and arms them with tools and solutions to prove the value of security.

This issue presents Security magazine’s 2022 Security Benchmark Report; let’s dive deeper into the security performance metrics that are most impactful to security leaders’ organizations. 

The 2022 Security Benchmark Report recognizes security leaders achieving great things in training, making strides in diversity, equity and inclusion, adding value and enabling the business and more.

The purpose of The Security Benchmark Report is to create a database to measure security teams and organizations versus their peers, both among the industry as a whole and among individual sectors, for even better comparison.

The 2022 Security Benchmark Report includes comparisons of all security functions, sector reports and top critical issues. This editorial report provides security teams with metrics they can use to measure their security functions against their peers.

Data from The Security Benchmark Report is broken down by sector to allow for specific security comparisons across various market sectors. For The Security Benchmark Sector Reports, you’ll see data regarding security’s roles, responsibilities and budgets broken down by sector.

When mapping out career plans, security professionals can benefit from breaking down where they want to be and how they’ll get there.
