Cyber Policy Management
There’s a decent chance – sometime within your lifetime – you’ve given some of your sensitive information over a website or through email. In order to keep that information safe, the website and communications platform had to adhere to a strict security policy. That policy ensures the information you present will be treated with confidence and security. Cyber Policies are important to the success of any company. If there is a security breach or a misconfiguration within your environment, it can cost millions of dollars to fix and take months to recover.
In the event of a security breach, it will take time and money to investigate what happened and how to prevent it from happening again. It also means that all the data that was stolen is now out there in the world and can never be taken back. This can lead to lawsuits, bad press, or reputational loss. This is why it is so important to have cyber policies in place. They define where the company stands on information security and how you manage IT to outline the rules that everyone needs to follow.
Having policies demonstrates best-practices for protecting company and customer information. There are a lot of different frameworks and policy structures that can be put in place, but they should all align with your company’s strategy and operational objectives. Every policy should support the idea of protecting the data and making sure it stays within your company and your control.
What we do to protect you and your customers:
We will evaluate your cybersecurity and information technology governance and help define a program framework that will be used to provide a common language for expressing, understanding, and managing information and cybersecurity risk, both internally and externally.
This framework will be used to help identify and prioritize actions for reducing risk and is a tool for aligning policy, business, and technological approaches to managing that risk. Successful implementation of the governance program will achieve the following outcomes:
- You will have consistent alignment of the information security program with business objectives and controls.
- There will be a clear understanding throughout the enterprise of the information security office’s roles, responsibilities, and authority.
- There will be a general understanding of “who does what” regarding information security services.
- Information security awareness and training will reach target audiences with specifically applicable messages and training, using communication channels and methods appropriate to each audience.
- Information security architecture will be an integral component of enterprise security architecture.
- Information security policy, standards, and guidance will be managed through formalized processes.
- Information security workflows between functional areas will be smooth and efficient.
- You will have a clear understanding of the business impacts of IT-related risks and be able to make sound decisions about them.
- Information security expertise needed by stakeholders will be readily available.
