It is possible to gain control of your cybersecurity program without a traditional CISO role. Our team can help you become less reactionary and more proactive by identifying risks before they are exploited and provide strategic solutions to stop potential gaps. Our goal is to make cybersecurity a strength for your organization, not a liability.
The Chief Information Security Officer’s (CISO) position in any organization has become crucial, but the role of the new CISO has evolved as rapidly as the scale and seriousness of cyber threats. Not only is this role expected to have technical expertise to advance the security posture of the organization, they are tasked with developing security-focused strategies to drive business decisions that executives can understand and support.
Perhaps the greatest security challenge is influencing an organization to to invest in cyber security capabilities in the absence of skilled talent or informed leadership. Our team works seamlessly with organizations to fill the CISO gap and help you address what’s critical to the business, reduce risks and improve overall resiliency.
We will take an inventory of your key business systems, data and personnel and then perform a risk assessment that analyzes threats to your business and controls that you have in place to mitigate those threats.
Based on the initial risk assessment, we will assist with remediation of critical issues that present heightened immediate risk.
After we have identified issues requiring immediate attention, we will conduct a full standards-based assessment utilizing a widely accepted best practices framework that aligns with your business needs.
Finally, we will build a long-term improvement roadmap and assist your organization in implementing best practices and security controls that mitigate your cybersecurity risk.
