  4. Driving the assessment of various information technology risks that the business faces in its operations.
  5. Owning the process and ensuring proper implementation of action plans, policy, and procedural changes for risk avoidance and mitigation.
  6. Defining a streamlined process and subsequently managing the execution of information technology risk assessments.
  7. Supervise and lead readiness reviews over information technology development projects.
