Gap Assessments
A gap assessment finds where your security falls short of where it needs to be and sets the order for closing the distance.
Knowing where the gaps are
A security gap assessment gives you a clear, honest picture of where your current security measures sit, and where the gaps are. Our consultants work through it with your team, and what you get back is a prioritized path rather than an inventory of findings.
The process covers:
-
Understanding your current information security across networks, systems, and data.
-
Reviewing your security strategy against the threats and risks most relevant to your business.
-
Identifying your critical assets, and evaluating the controls protecting them.
-
Assessing cyber and security risk with a focus on what matters most to your organization.
-
Prioritized recommendations on controls, processes, and procedures that fit your environment and your budget.
The value of knowing where you stand
A gap assessment tells you where to invest next and gives you the reasoning to explain it.
-
A clear view of the specific weaknesses in your current security, with nothing left to assumption.
-
Prioritized guidance on closing gaps and strengthening defences in a way that fits how your business runs.
-
Independent validation that your existing measures are working as intended.
-
Assurance that your security policies and processes are still effective and relevant to how you operate.
-
Early identification of new vulnerabilities, while there is still time to plan the fix.
-
Evidence of your commitment to security for your board, investors, partners, and clients.
