Why CSA&A
Global corporations and small businesses are equally likely to fall prey to cyber-attacks. These crimes emphasize the importance of enhanced enterprise security, which starts with a cybersecurity risk assessment. While technology supports many functions of modern business, it exposes the organization to cyber vulnerabilities. While many think the Information Technology (IT) department is responsible for managing this risk, a true cybersecurity assessment is done by a third party assessment team and encompasses more than typical IT functions. A cybersecurity assessment addresses the myriad of complex and growing compliance regulations.
Threats to an organization include not just fines and penalties from non compliance, but also factors such as insider threat, security architecture shortcomings, inadequate training, and lack of documentation.
What Makes an Effective Cybersecurity Risk Assessment?
Any proper cybersecurity risk assessment will be part of an on-going process risk management program, where your company addresses known risks and vulnerabilities. The routine assessment should be a central component of your company’s security plan. A proper cybersecurity risk assessment should:
- Be based on a set of pre-defined controls
- Address Industry Best Practices
- Validate corporate policy
- Include assessment of data management practices
- Review system architecture
- Identify potential threats
- Identify vulnerabilities
- Predict the impact of threats
- Provide threat recovery options
- Validate policies
- Provide a Plan of Action and Milestones (POAM) for continuous improvement
How we do it
Assessments will be conducted using industry best practices and following the protocols identified in the National Institute of Standards and Technology SP 800-53A. There are multiple activities in the assessment which will result in an Assessment Report.
Roadmap to Compliance
With full evaluation completed, a written plan for compliance will be developed detailing steps to be taken to help ensure compliance and to eliminate risk. This plan is reviewed in a joint staff with the RNT team, your IT team and operational staff.
Risk/Vulnerability Assessments
This technical assessment defines, identifies and classifies security holes or vulnerabilities in a computer, network or communication infrastructure.
Process Assessments
These assessments follow the vulnerability assessment with an in-depth review of documented processes and practices which support compliance and minimize vulnerabilities.
External Vulnerability Scan
Identifies any vulnerabilities seen from outside your network, i.e: what the hackers see.
Internal Policy Review
Ensures a valid, written Information Security Plan is in place and in practice.
Infrastructure Assessments
These assessments include assessing multiple aspects of an organization such as: mission, vision, staff, regulatory restrictions, current state and desired/required strategic state.
Internal Vulnerability Scan
Identifies internal vulnerabilities which might trigger from inside the client network.
