Sponsor Benefits
Corporations are encouraged to participate in the development of SARMA and the security risk management profession. As a result of the US Government's increased reliance on security risk analysis as the foundation for government decision-making, prioritization and federal funding, the field of security and risk analysis is growing exponentially. For example, in the field of homeland security alone, nearly $12 billion in federal grants have been distributed based on the assessment and management of security risks. This number is small compared to that spent by private sector organizations themselves. Likewise, federal funding and decision-making across the spectrum of military, intelligence and civilian agencies are increasingly being determined by the analysis of security issues and the structured management of risks.
Corporate involvement in SARMA brings numerous benefits to the sponsoring company:
-- It demonstrates a corporate commitment to, and participation in, developing professional standards and encouraging the highest level of competency in the field
-- It gives corporations a way to participate in helping SARMA, and all levels of government, to shape the risk management profession of the future, and
-- It shows they support and use the highest professional standards in the performance of their risk-related programs and services to government and private sector clients, while educating those customers of the need for selecting contractors with demonstrated competency in the field.
