Company operations
are affected:
In the age of mass personalization
and IoT, information is inherently
more personal. This data underpins
a company’s operations.
Security needs
to be data-­centric:
Tomorrow's standard will be security
that follows data and continuously
ensures connected devices are
uncompromised, authenticated users
are who they say they are, and
security is ‘baked-­in’ to new offerings.
Costs are rising:
Digital businesses that rely
on data insights and
intelligent automation are
exposed to unprecedented
and systemic risks.

Apple Relies On Trust To Enter New Markets
Its efforts to be transparent in how it uses and
secures customer data is testimony to the value this
leading brand places on trust: strong security and
ethics that are ‘baked in’ give customers confidence that
their digital footprints are secure and private, easing the
transition to and adoption of the Apple ecosystem.
As Apple has shown, trust differentiates competitors in the
digital economy where businesses can reach vastly more
people, iterate quicker, and make faster, better decisions
than ever before.
When customers trust a service, product, or brand,
they look to it for guidance into the digital future

at least twice as many privacy or security
breaches compared to two years ago.
81% agree that organizations need to move from
an exclusively perimeter-­based security model
(e.g. firewalls, intrusion detection systems) to
include human factors-­based security (e.g.,
cognitive fingerprinting, hardware authentication).

Digital Trust: 100-­Day Plan
10Copyright © 2016 Accenture. All rights reserved.
1. Survey stakeholders to quantify the level of trust across your
business portfolio.
2. Search customer service logs for the word ‘trust’ and run sentiment
analysis to learn how customers perceive your brand;; make a top-­five
list of the least trustworthy offerings.
3. Take an inventory of data-­driven business processes;; describe the
current and potential opportunities for enhanced security and data
ethics for each.
4. Identify the executive(s) responsible for building and maintaining trust,
digital ethics, and security with vendors, partners, and customers.
5. Research what your competitors do to build customer trust. Record
what builds and erodes trust.
6. Partner with an academic institution, non-­profit, or industry group to
dive deeper into one aspect of digital ethics. Publish findings/advice
for others.
7. Compile a list of opportunities for security to move closer to data.

Digital Trust: 365-­Day Plan
11Copyright © 2016 Accenture. All rights reserved.
1. From the top-­five list of the least trustworthy products,
do a complete customer journey analysis. Identify areas
to build trust.
2. Discuss hiring a chief digital officer, chief trust officer,
or chief ethics officer.
3. Pick one product/service to maximize trust. Build
metrics for tracking improvement over time. Report
results to product teams and challenge them to meet
aggressive targets.
4. Start tracking metrics for trust and both data and digital
ethics. Use this data to include trust and ethical
practices in your company’s annual CSR report.
5. Implement a portfolio of solutions to move security
closer to data. Describe how their implementation has
mitigated downside risk. Share this report with your CIO
and CFO in an effort to reduce insurance premiums.
