Cyber Security Audit
Maintaining a compliant cyber security audit program is certainly one of the most challenging executive responsibilities today. Identifying potential threats from both inside and outside the organisation requires a high level of diligence, skill and focused resource. Without a commitment to this activity, potential losses and damage can begin to mount across enterprise reputation, compromised business operational continuity and dark actor financial ransom demands.
Sapience Advisory provides dedicated professionals to minimise an event with both periodic and random audits, appliance monitoring, and user culture.
Following an executive authored scope engagement, the Sapience program will:
- Conduct an immediate risk assessment, identifying threats, vulnerabilities and priorities
- Review existing Cybersecurity policies including data handling processes and access controls
- Review and recommend appropriate technical vulnerability scanning applications
- Conduct penetration testing and of the effectiveness of security controls, identifying both latent and active threats
- Map total network devices, infrastructure and endpoints
- Develop industry standard and enterprise specific regulatory compliance metrics
- Recommend a reporting and remediation process for follow-up audits and continuous monitoring
We will also consider with you and cost evaluate the benefits of implementing tools such as the Essential Eight Security Framework in conjunction with Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR), Managed Detection and Response (MDR), Extended Detection and Response (XDR) activities.
A key component in threat reduction is the training of digital asset users in best cybersecurity practices. We will assist in the recognition and understanding of:
- Phishing and social engineering deceptive emails, messages and calls.
- Understanding how threats such as malware and ransomware work and how to prevent infection
- Password security and maintenance
- Risks associated with public Wi-Fi and unsecured networks
A Sapience cyber security audit program will ensure you stay ahead of the dangers and consequences of cyber breaches with vigilant protection of your digital assets.
