Consider trust and reputation risks
I recently read an excellent study about the impact of security and privacy on brand reputation and customer loyalty. I was looking for some solid analytical data to prove my strong belief that security can be a “competitive advantage or differentiator.” This study, “Secure the Trust of Your Brand,” published by The CMO [chief marketing officer] Council, corroborates my convictions regarding the importance of security. It is worth downloading and showing all executives (www.cmocouncil.org).
