Level ISSO Environment:

• In discussions with the CISO, it was clear that the security program and systems have been neglected for at least a year, if not longer.
• While documentation, artifacts, and security plans may exist, t is little confidence that they are current, complete, or in good condition.
• The CISO's primary goal is to get the environment back on track and clean up existing security and compliance issues.
• Focused on increasing automation wver possible to improve efficiency and reduce manual effort.
• The immediate focus is remediation and stabilization, with automation initiatives to follow once processes are back under control.
• The environment consists of roughly 90 systems, although the exact number is unclear.
• The team wants to move away from assigning ISSOs to individual systems and instead organize responsibilities by security control areas (e.g., Access Control, Configuration Management) across all systems.
• Rather than owning a specific set of systems, ISSOs would be responsible for managing and monitoring their assigned control families enterprise-wide.
• T is not a high level of confidence in the current patch management process and patching posture across the environment.
