Art of Cyber Consulting
CGR-MINDS along with Regatta provide comprehensive solution for Cyber Risk Assessment & Management for your organization. Proper cyber security risk management is more than a technology solution. A company, led by its CEO, must integrate cyber risk management into day-to-day operations. Additionally, a company must be prepared to respond to the inevitable cyber incident, restore normal operations and ensure that company assets and the company’s reputation are protected.
Cyber Assessments
Understand what information you need to protect: identify the corporate “crown jewels.”
The first step in assessing an organization’s cyber risk is to understand what company assets you are trying to protect and why. Ask yourself, what are your most critical assets? Identify your most important information, assets, and legally protected information.
– Identify Threats to Crown Jewels
– How do you store the information?
– Who has access to the information?
– How do you protect your data?
– What steps are you taking to secure your computers, network, email and other tools?
Forecast the consequences of a successful attack
If you have an information technology staff or chief information security officer, ask them to walk you through the above analysis. Ask them to quantify the risk. Also ask them to explain what could happen as a result of a fully successful cyber attack against your company.
Cyber Risk Mitigation – Implement a Cyber security Plan
Most experts recommend that businesses have a strategic approach to cyber security.
CGR-MINDS and REGATTA created the services to help businesses evaluate their current cyber security posture and create a plan.
A comprehensive cyber security plan needs to focus on three key areas:
Prevention: Solutions, policies and procedures need to be put in place to reduce the risk of attacks.
Resolution: In the event of a computer security breach, plans and procedures need to be in place to determine the resources that will be used to remedy a threat. Companies need to be prepared to address the repercussions of a security threat with their employees and customers to ensure that any loss of trust or business is minimal and short-lived.
CGR-MINDS along with Regatta provide comprehensive solution for Ethical Hacking and its management.
Organizations under constant Cyber-Attack
Organizations like Banks, NBFC, dealing with public, Government, ‘B to B’ and ‘B to C’ are major targets therefore they always remain under cyber-threats. “Defending against cyber-attacks account for a significant portion of the $25 billion banks worldwide spend annually on security technology” (Source). Besides banks, other organizations small, medium or large are constantly under cyber-attacks. ‘Adobe Systems last year, faced a data hack of 2.9 million customers’ (Source). Security thus has become a mainstream requirement in today’s world.
To stop a hacker, one needs to think like one and this is what ethical hacking is all about. Ethical hackers also perform security tasks like hackers; however it is to protect the computers and networks of an organization. They have the permission to hack organization’s network in order to perform tests that keep it safe from illegal hacking. Ethical hackers help in improving the security of systems in organizations.
Transition to Cloud Increases Demand of Ethical Hackers
The information world is moving towards Cloud where Virtualization and IT outsourcing are major trends. This transition has increased the level of threats and therefore the demand of ethical hackers. Since the advent of cloud computing, security has been a major concern. In order to avail the benefits of cloud and virtualization without harming the security, companies need to go for ethical hackers. The major challenge that today’s businesses face is the fast growing cyber world and the complexities of security requirements. The hacking tactics are evolving every day and only an expert professional can overcome this challenge.
