When establishing metrics for an information security program, the BEST approach is to identify indicators...

 Metrics for an information security program should be aligned with the security objectives and strategy, and should demonstrate how well the program is performing in terms of reducing risk, enhancing security posture, and supporting business goals. Metrics that support major information security initiatives, reflect the corporate risk culture, or reduce information security program spending may be useful, but they are not the best approach for establishing metrics for the entire program.
