Risk Assessment

In order to accurately assess an organisation’s risk profile we need to determine the threats and vulnerabilities to which they are exposed as well as understanding the potential loss from exposure and the probability of the threats and vulnerabilities being exploited. This information is a key factor in an organisation’s risk management decision making process.

NetIntegrity’s Risk Assessment service enables organisations to accurately assess the value of their information assets and to analyse the threats and vulnerabilities to which these assets are exposed.

Once this assessment process has been completed and an accepted risk profile and security posture agreed upon, a remediation programme can be put in place to mitigate against the identified risks.

Benefits
  • Cost Justification - Additional security almost always involves additional expense. As this does not directly generate income, it should always be justified in financial terms. Our Risk assessment service would directly and automatically generate such justification for security recommendations in business terms.

  • Our risk assessment service ensures that security would be properly targeted, and directly related to potential impacts, threats, and existing vulnerabilities. Failure to achieve this could result in excessive or unnecessary expenditure.

  • Through the application of our Risk Assessment method, it is possible to quickly establish the areas of greatest risk to the enterprise as a whole.

  • Many enterprises require adherence to certain 'baseline' standards. This could be for a variety of reasons, such as legislation (eg: Data Protection Act), enterprise policy, regulatory controls, etc. Our methodology would support such requirements and enable rapid identification of any failings.

  • By obtaining information from different parts of a business unit, our Risk Assessment service aids communication and facilitates decision making.
