DWS’s activities are divided across three domains: Enterprise IT & Services, Real Estate & Facility, and Digital & AI. In addition, there is a separate team for information security. The structure of DWS was recently reorganised to allow the three domains to come into their own more effectively. As a result, several new roles have been created, including that of Information Security Incident Coordinator. This role will be part of the Information Security team, which we are building to strengthen cyber resilience, improve detection and response capability and provide stronger day-to-day security leadership across business and IT. A key part of this is increasing maturity in incident readiness, coordination, escalation and recovery.
