Hi Jarrod,

Not exactly what you are looking for, but have you seen the Corporate
Information Security Working Group: Report of the Best Practices and Metrics
Team (http://www.educause.edu/ir/library/pdf/CSD3661.pdf)

Might be useful for identifying possible KPI.

Subject: [SECURITY] KPIs in IT Security Policy


Hi all,

I am doing a review of our IT Security policy framework. As a part of
a previous review conducted by an external group, we were advised that
our Security Policies were rather broad in the sense we did not have a
measurable set of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to accurately
assess the response and performance of the IT Security group.

However in doing in a review of some of our competitors within
Australia I noted that, to the best of my knowledge, neither had any
of them!

I am curious to know if any of the other universities and higher
institutions subscribed to this list have developed any such KPIs as a
part of their IT Security framework, and if so could you provide some
links and/or insight into how they developed said framework and KPIs.
If not, perhaps some insight as to why none were stated.

Thanks in advance,
--
