The number of confidentiality incidents causing financial loss, business disruption or public embarrassment would be the best metric to enable an enterprise to evaluate an alignment goal specifically related to security of information and privacy. A metric is a quantifiable measure that is used to track and assess the status of a specific process or activity. An alignment goal is an intermediate goal that links the enterprise goals with the governance and management objectives. Security of information and privacy is one of the 17 generic alignment goals defined by COBIT that describes how information and technology can support the protection of sensitive information and personal data. The number of confidentiality incidents causing financial loss, business disruption or public embarrassment is a metric that reflects how well this alignment goal is achieved.12 References: COBIT 2019 Framework: Introduction and Methodology, COBIT 2019 Framework: Governance System
