There is no authoritative list of cybersecurity KPIs and KRIs that all businesses or organizations should track.
The metrics you choose will depend on your organization’s needs and risk appetite. Those metrics should, however, be clear to anyone looking at your reporting. For instance, your business-side colleagues should be able to understand them without an explanation.
To choose the KPIs that are best suited for your business, take the following steps:
1. Write a clear objective for each KPI.
2. Share each KPI with stakeholders.
3. Review each KPI regularly.
4. Make sure each KPI is actionable.
5. Adjust each KPI as necessary to fit your business’s changing needs.
6. Confirm that each KPI is attainable.
7. Update each KPI objective as needed
