Compliance
Compliance with information security standards doesn't have to be hard. We'll help you prepare for successful audits to achieve and maintain compliance with applicable standards in a way that adds maximum value with minimum cost.
Technical Due Diligence
In 2018, one of the largest data breaches to-date rocked Marriott after their acquisition of Starwood (see Bloomberg article). Understanding potential cybersecurity risks during M&A is crucial. We'll provide a comprehensive assessment of your potential investment to empower your deal team to determine whether it will achieve your goals.
Product Security
Shift left. By embedding threat modelling into the design process, automating security testing, and empowering your dev teams with security champions, you can build more secure products while reducing development costs.
Risk Assessment
We'll help you identify and understand cybersecurity risks which could impact your organization, enabling you to make informed decisions around prioritizing mitigation efforts.
Network Security Architecture
We’ll partner with your IT team to implement zero-trust and ensure that your network architecture can securely support modern work initiatives like work from home (WFH) and bring-your-own-device (BYOD).
Managed Service Provider (MSP) Advisory
Newsworthy cyberattacks have finally brought some awareness to small and medium businesses (SMB). Some MSPs are partnering with experienced cybersecurity firms to meet demand, but others are simply adding cybersecurity products to their offerings without understanding what it takes to operate a security practice. We help MSPs protect themselves and their customers so they can focus on delivering quality service and support.
Policy Guidance
Good security policies are an effective security control in protecting sensitive data from potential threats. We'll help you ensure that your policies are clear, concise, and can effectively communicate security measures to your staff.
Virtual CISO
Organizations without a dedicated security team are not always able to budget for a qualified executive to oversee a cybersecurity program, even though they may need one to fulfill regulatory, insurance, or contract obligations. A Virtual Chief Information Security Officer (vCISO) augments your management team by providing strategic guidance on information security issues on an as-needed basis. A vCISO can help your management team or IT executives build a security team, implement best practices, develop policies and procedures, and think strategically about a cybersecurity roadmap that aligns to your business goals.
Digital Forensics + Incident Response
Not all incidents are breaches, but when incidents are not managed efficiently they can become breaches. When breaches do occur, a current and tested response plan will ensure an appropriate response that mitigates further impact and restores ‘business as usual’ as soon as possible. We work with our clients to ensure they’re prepared for the worst, assess breach impact, and conduct forensic investigations to determine root cause.
