Value Proposition - Why do organizations join the IT SCC?
The value proposition is one of synergy: sharing best practices for protecting critical assets and functions; access to early warning about threats; collaborating in incident mitigation; and enhanced capability for business restoration and continuity. These all need to be foremost in any business and critical infrastructure protection strategy. The public-private partnership is the underlying foundation of successful critical infrastructure protection. Both government and industry partners possess unique core competencies that add value to the partnership. Successful prevention, response, mitigation, and recovery efforts are severely degraded without the full participation of government and industry partners.
