In de praktijk blijkt het vaak lastig te bepalen welke risico’s een organisatie loopt en wat daarvoor een passend beveiligingsniveau is. Deze kennis is echter wel noodzakelijk om de juiste maatregelen te nemen en effectief in informatiebeveiliging te investeren. Pinewood organiseerde op 12 december 2012 in samenwerking met McAfee een seminar die hierop inspeelde. Handige tools zoals Risk Management en McAfee Nitro (het SIEM product van McAfee) en de pragmatische aanpak van Pinewood bieden concrete handvatten en inzicht om tot een effectief informatiebeveiligingsbeleid te komen.
