As the Security Executive Council’s influence has expanded, our research activities have drawn increasing attention. The demand for quality research on leadership, metrics and security programs from a credible, unbiased source led to the need for a separate, independent research arm to field industry requests and publicize research findings.
The Security Leadership Research Institute will continue and expand upon work already in progress on topics such as board-level risk, regulations and compliance, awareness program elements, security program performance metrics, security titles and reporting and the cost of security. Research results will also be used to build a benchmarking resource of unprecedented size and scope.
Security Leadership Research Institute membership benefits include research reports and benchmarks; quick poll results, a discount on selected products from the Council’s Leadership Store, the option to receive Security Executive Council deliverables through participation, access to the metrics database, and the Institute Issue Watch newsletter. Potential members must possess certain qualifications to join, such as current security practitioner status. Members are required to participate in a small number of surveys to maintain membership status.
The SLRI’s mission is to become the resource risk mitigation professionals turn to when they need industry research.
