A Reasonable Approach to Cyber

Security Compliance Risk Management

Practical Strategies, Rooted In Reality.

Organizations with limited technical staff and resources often can’t employ the same approach to advanced cybersecurity concepts and requirements that enterprise firms can.  Unfortunately, the vast majority of resources to guide and manage these projects are designed for enterprise clients and don’t scale down to help smaller organizations.

Many small and mid-size organizations first encounter with cybersecurity frameworks and standards comes from a legal or regulatory obligation

 We can help de-mystify these requirements, give you strategies and options to meet them based on your specific circumstances, and put you on the path to meeting your compliance obligations.   

Beyond compliance, we can help you implement a reasonable cybersecurity program geared toward steady improvement over time, and focused addressing your largest business risks first. (This way, you can use your compliance obligations to your long-term benefit

  3. Identify the vulnerabilities: Identify the weaknesses in the IT systems, infrastructure and processes that could be exploited by threats such as hackers, viruses, or natural disasters. 

  4. Identify the threats: Identify the potential sources of harm to your assets, including external threats such as cyber attacks and internal threats such as employee mistakes or malfeasance.

  5. Analyze the risks: Analyze the likelihood and potential impact of each identified vulnerability and threat.

  6. Evaluate the risks: Evaluate the risks based on the potential impact to the organization and the likelihood of occurrence.

  7. Develop a risk response plan: Based on the risk assessment, develop a plan to address the identified risks, including measures to prevent or mitigate the risks and plans for responding to risks that cannot be eliminated. 

Make it a process: Risk assessments should be regularly reviewed and updated to ensure that your organization is adequately protected.
