A security risk assessment identifies, assesses, and implements key security controls in applications and/or organizations. A typical Risk Assessment exercise involves five steps, i.e. Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, and Recover (these are further divided into sub-categories and requirements).
As per the required framework of our customers, we help our clients to:
- Identify the critical systems, modules, assets, and personnel dealing with sensitive data.
- Protect those assets, for example, by installing firewalls and antivirus software, and by providing regular security trainings to those sensitive personnel.
- Detect any cyber breaches or attacks by implementing ways to continuously monitor these critical assets.
- Respond to any breaches or attacks by implementing incident response and recovery plans and have a backup of sensitive data as well as a plan to recover quickly in case of any incident.
We can assist the management in making informed resource allocation, tooling, and security control implementation decisions. Thus, conducting an assessment is an integral part of an organization’s risk management process.
