Governance, Risk, and Compliance
Framework Assessment
Governance Framework Assessment is a systematic and orderly review of how an organization's cybersecurity risk policy and related documents support its objectives. This review examines the organization's governance documents' arrangements, assesses maturity levels, finds areas for improvement, and sets up clear and risk-aware plans for progress. By doing this review, organizations can reduce unnecessary business risk, enable more growth by having consistent and visible administrative oversight, and ensure the organization's operations meet all business needs and opportunities.
Cyber Risk Program Development
Cyber Risk Program Development evaluates and tests how well the Cyber Risk Management process conforms to the Enterprise Risk Management process. This process conducts a comprehensive analysis of the Risk Management Framework, Program, Policies, and Procedures based on the organizations' strategic vision and goals. This approach reveals critical gaps and speeds up the improvement of existing Cyber Risk Management programs and ensure the related Security Governance and Policies are consistent with the organizations Risk Appetite and Tolerance. Our assessment and remediation plans will improve the whole organization by optimizing decisions, policies, and processes.
Cybersecurity Program Risk Assessment
Cybersecurity Program Risk Assessment examines and measures the effectiveness and maturity of the Cybersecurity Program in protecting the organization's critical information, applications and processes. This assessment applies a risk-based approach to evaluate the cybersecurity policies, standards, controls, and practices against the organization's business objectives, regulatory requirements, and industry best practices. Our assessment identifies the key cyber risks and vulnerabilities that may impact the organization's mission, reputation, and operations. We provide actionable recommendations and prioritized remediation plans to enhance the cybersecurity posture and resilience of the organization.
Cybersecurity Controls Effectiveness Assessment
Cybersecurity Controls Effectiveness Assessment analyzes and assesses the effectiveness of Information Security Controls employed by an organization to protect critical data, applications, and services. This assessment uses a variety of techniques, such as interviews, observations, testing, and evidence review, to measure the performance and compliance of the security controls against the organization's policies, standards, and procedures. Our assessment highlights the strengths and weaknesses of the security controls and provides practical recommendations and best practices to improve the security posture and reduce the risk exposure of the organization.
