Information Security and Assurance sets the overall direction of information security functions relating to Fordham University; these include IT risk management, security policies, security awareness, incident response, and security architecture. Since security risk is a business risk, Information Security and Assurance assesses and works with the strategic components of functional business units and operational security staff across all University Information Technology organizations.
