Cybersecurity Assessments
Identifying gaps in your cybersecurity strategy and mapping your security controls to industry best practices not only makes good business sense, but a lot of times, it’s mandated by regulations or statutes. For example, as of 2020, companies seeking to bid on Department of Defense contracts will need to be certified by a third party that their cybersecurity maturity is to a certain level, known as CMMC certification, just to submit a viable proposal.
A properly executed cybersecurity assessment assesses your regulatory requirements, reviews existing security controls, policies, and procedures, and accurately defines your organization’s exposure to security and compliance risks. From there, a roadmap can be developed to quickly get your organization to maximum risk mitigation and regulatory compliance as cost effectively as possible.
