IT leaders’ guide: How to operationalise an efficient IT cadence

In a fast-paced, ever-changing risk environment, where schedules are often tighter than cybersecurity defences, IT teams must establish an efficient cadence system, which is key to staying ahead of the curve. This cadence is not just about scheduling meetings. It's about setting the tone and guiding how the department operates and thinks.

A well-structured cadence ensures that teams can complete all their essential tasks in a timely and efficient manner. It also helps prevent crucial elements like risk assessment, alignment with broader company strategies, and continuous improvement from  being overlooked.

Based on best practices gathered from our experts and clients, the following infographic illustrates the ideal cadence for IT teams to effectively safeguard their organisation from threats and risks while also aligning with management and C-level executives on broader strategic initiatives.

This cadence includes daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly and annual reviews, providing a holistic approach to risk management and strategic alignment. By implementing this cadence, IT leaders can ensure their teams are constantly working towards the company’s overall objectives while maintaining a robust cybersecurity posture.
