Cyber and Risk
Cyber Risk Management is the next evolution in enterprise technology risk and security for organisations that increasingly rely on digital processes to run their business. Cyber risk management has become a business issue, not just a technology issue. Cyber Risk Management enables business executives and their organisations to understand the cyber risk profile of their digital operations from a business perspective.
All companies should develop and maintain clear and robust policies for safeguarding critical business data and sensitive information, in the form of Makarov Cyber Security Planning, Protecting their reputation and discouraging inappropriate behaviour by employees. As with any other business document, cyber security policies should follow good design and governance practices, not so long that they become unusable, not so vague that they become meaningless, and reviewed on a regular basis to ensure that they stay pertinent as your business needs change.
With our modern dependence on technology and security. Everyone knows how crucial security is and how it must be embedded into everything an organisation does. When a security culture is sustainable, it transforms security from a one-time event into a lifecycle that generates security returns forever. This is Cyber Security Culture Development.
As threats of data security breaches proliferate, it takes a cyber risk expert to pinpoint your vulnerabilities and help you develop an effective cyber strategy for your organisation. Most, if not all businesses know the importance of protecting themselves against cyber threats. If your organisation is breached the consequences can be serious, both reputationally and thanks to GDPR financially.
Most businesses view their website as one of their biggest assets, but it can also be the biggest vulnerability if if you’re not protected from network security threats. Network security threats/risks are such a problem as you may not be aware of an issue until the damage has been done. If you haven’t already, you need to start protecting your organisations’ network now.
Seeing these threats as random attacks that can only be stopped after they occur is an expensive view to take, a the level of effort and expense to resolve attacks can be massive. However, most attacks are coordinated and somewhat predictable. Cyber criminals often use the same methods of entry and similar types of attacks to steal data or money.
Makarov Intelligence provides a Cybersecurity Audit and Review service which gives an in-depth evaluation of an organisation’s cyber security posture in detail with regard to its compliance with the required security objectives, policies, standards and processes. The service is designed for both public and private-sector organisations. The Cybersecurity Audit and Review service has the objective of assisting our clients to achieve their required compliance of standards, policies and processes by providing them with an independent comprehensive risk and compliance audit assessment.
All cyber systems are built using the physical hardware of the semiconductor chips found in all modern electronics, computers, communications networks and other critical infrastructure. These chips are becoming faster, cheaper and more powerful, and this has enabled the rise of artificial intelligence, the internet of things (IoT), and autonomous systems as key technologies of the future. Cybersecurity technological environment risk management has become a compliance requirement for those in the critical infrastructure industries. This is because for those in the critical infrastructure space, a cyber-attack can also pose physical threats.
Makarov design Risk Management systems to withstand not just the best possible circumstances, but also the worst. As part of this system an organisations’ information cybersecurity protocol enforcement must be designed to withstand a breakdown in the usual flows of data and information. Recent research on cybersecurity illustrates that a great number of security breaches take place because of human error. That is why educating your employees and adopting security practices that alleviate the risks is essential to keeping your organisation safe.
Organisations are not training their workers for cybersecurity risks. Without ‘Cybersecurity Employee Preparation’ workers don’t know how to recognise a security threat they cannot be expected to avoid it, to report it or remove it. An organisation may have firewalls and security software, but it’s just not enough. As employees, not technology, are the most common entry points for phishers. Unless your organisations’ employees have participated in cybersecurity training programs, as humans employees are liable to make mistakes, be trusting of fake identities, tempted by clickbait, and vulnerable to tactics used by cyber criminals to gain access to company information.
Data Asset Monitoring is key to understanding the value of corporate assets and fundamental to cybersecurity risk management. Only when the true value is known can the correct level of security be applied. Most security and IT problems begin with visibility. Overseeing security aspects of the configuration of such resources is the practice of cybersecurity asset management. To address security issues, you must discover the gaps, and to do that you need a comprehensive and reliable inventory of your asset. Therefore, cybersecurity asset management involves:
