Risk Assessment

Our approach goes beyond risks and vulnerabilities. We work with you closely and collaboratively to:
- Learn your objectives and constraints
- What are your business goals?
- What level of staff and budget do you have available to address security risks?
- Determine where you are most at risk
- While there are common risks shared by virtually every organisation, what are the risks that are of greatest concern in your industry?
- Identify applicable regulations and standards
- Which regulatory compliance and industry standards apply to your business
- Execute hands-on in-depth security review
- What systems, policies, and controls do you have in place?
- Based on our interviews with your staff, are you adhering to your policies? What gaps do they see? What problems have they experienced?
- Is your documentation up-to-date, complete and understandable?
- Execute an operational best-practices review
- Determine needed technical security assessments such as penetration testing, web application testing and others as needed
- Outline risk mitigation recommendations ranked by cost and effort
