Effective risk management involves managing risks from external as well as internal sources. Because security risks can be introduced through internal stakeholder decisions, working with them to build awareness of the broad spectrum of security risks and their role in mitigating these is essential. In this course, you'll explore the internal stakeholder's role in the security landscape context. You'll then investigate how to effectively communicate with stakeholders regarding their role in preventing security risks from being introduced. You'll build on these concepts by examining best practices for continual stakeholder engagement using workplace example scenarios. You'll then outline various methods of effective security health reporting. At the end of this course, you'll be able to plan for effective stakeholder communication and engagement.
