At its core, Enterprise Security Architecture refers to the holistic foundations of your security. However, considering the ubiquitous advantages and impacts of security in today\u2019s business operations, it’s crucial that this architecture extends beyond merely the IT security realm. In addition to identifying, designing and explaining security controls, your architecture should justify the inherent business value of these controls from a stakeholder and risk management perspective. This is where business-driven frameworks, like SABSA<\/a>, can provide your organisation with the greatest value.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t Implementing a cohesive and comprehensive enterprise security architecture starts with using the right framework. While there are a myriad of methodologies to choose from, SABSA is particularly advantageous since it takes a variety of security views<\/a> into account. Its layered model ensures you don’t overlook aspects of your enterprise architecture, and further guarantees consistency and traceability throughout\u00a0your\u00a0organisation.<\/p> We offer certified SABSA architects to assist with planning and implementing your architecture across different enterprise layers, from business drivers to operational aspects. Ultimately, we help you design and deploy the necessary infrastructure solutions, controls and processes to support your critical business initiatives in a top-down manner.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t <\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t Sherwood Applied Business Security Architecture (SABSA) is a globally recognised and proven methodology for developing business-driven security architecture at both the enterprise and solutions level.<\/span><\/p> It enables an organisation to analyse security and business requirements and subsequently build an architecture around these unique needs. Spanning 6 conceptual layers, this framework integrates security into enterprise architecture in a seamless manner: <\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t There are a variety of enterprise frameworks that we help align your security architecture to. Above all, our Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) team are here to help you:<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t Identify your key business objectives, goals and strategy as well the elements required to meet these targets.

On the other hand, for CTOs, the open source element avoids vendor dependence and provides a holistic architectural approach that can be applied to projects of any size or complexity.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\tOften times, the question with building a business-led, risk-focused enterprise architecture is \u2018where do we start?\u2019 <\/h3>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\u201cArchitecture means taking a holistic, enterprise-wide view, and creating principles, policies and standards by which the system will be designed and built [\u2026] [ensuring] consistency of the design approach across a large complex system.\u201d<\/h3><\/div>
