Organisations are beginning to think differently about how they go about protecting their information assets. This is because IT infrastructure is now vital to business operation and is subject to increasing security attacks. This, coupled with corporate governance and the growing burden of legislation and regulatory compliance, is driving the need for change when it comes to securing and enabling information.
The Information Assurance (IA) Platform is the governance tool that ties together the three elements of Security Consulting, Security Programmes and Security Operations. This unique tool is key to creating transparency and measurability for our clients – a crucial factor in delivering operational excellence and optimised performance.
We’ve created the IA Platform to help our clients identify what areas of their security environment are still at risk and where improvements are being made. This control framework allows organisations to review the security of their sites, their users/workforce and safeguard their critical infrastructure. Organisations have a single joined-up view of their security posture at a technology, management and strategic level.
We then assess and report on the complexities faced in managing the security estate and link it to the client’s business objectives to identify how to deliver a measurable reduction in business risk. This has the added benefit of IT and security personnel gaining a deeper appreciation of business objectives. This brings about a more disciplined approach from all parties to provide appropriate, cost-effective solutions to the issues that affect the organisation.
