Term | Definition |
SPI 360 | Strategic Performance Intelligence 360 — a leadership system and decision intelligence framework that enables cybersecurity leaders to govern effectively, measure impact, and align security programs with business outcomes. |
Entropy (Organizational) | A measure of friction, misalignment, or energy waste within systems—often caused by unclear accountability, silos, or poor governance. SPI 360 uses entropy signals to detect underperformance and complexity. |
CFRs | Conversations, Feedback, and Recognition — a leadership engagement model embedded in SPI 360 to support cultural transformation. CFRs are used to surface insights, validate direction, and build momentum. |
Governance Rhythm | The cadence and structure through which strategic cybersecurity decisions are reviewed, escalated, and monitored. SPI 360 recommends a quarterly rhythm anchored in performance reviews and stakeholder alignment. |
Delta Score | The change in SPI maturity or alignment from the start of the 90-day cycle to the end. Indicates uplift or regression across strategic domains. |
System of Action (SoA) | A coordinated set of tools, behaviors, and reporting that turns strategy into execution. SPI 360 is designed to serve as a cybersecurity system of action—not just a dashboard. |
Strategic Friction | Misalignment, delays, or resistance at the intersection of people, process, and purpose. SPI 360 identifies friction so leaders can target and remove it. |
