Investment Detail
The APHIS IT Security and Compliance investment represents the agency's security program that provides APHIS' security policies and guidelines to protect information from theft, corruption or natural disaster. The purpose is to provide operational security support to APHIS IT assets and its infrastructure. Because the APHIS Information Security Branch provides benefits that are qualitative in nature, rather than quantitative, a quantitative ROI cannot be calculated. While there are goals, objectives, and performance metrics captured, no financial ROI is attached to these goals, objectives, and performance metrics. Metrics are calculated and managed on an on-going basis, vetted at multiple levels of APHIS management, and are used to determine the organization's success
