Secure critical business infrastructure and mitigate business risk.

BUSINESS CHALLENGE
A business' ability to measure, manage, and monitor its security risk is the key to enabling sound business decisions regarding information asset protection. It is often difficult for a company to identify their own internal security risk, so seeking a credible, unbiased third party to assess business risk is the first step toward securing critical business infrastructure.

COVESTIC'S SOLUTION
Covestic provides security assessments that can be conducted with targets at various levels, including network, host, application, and database. Additionally, the overall security architecture and the supporting program can be examined. Covestic security assessments are differentiated by the analysis of the scanning/survey results and correlation of how discovered weaknesses may impact business operations. The identification of security risk impact on critical assets is crucial to developing and implementing an effective risk mitigation program.

The need to protect personally identifiable information (PII) is the driving force behind privacy assurance. An important aspect of privacy protection includes working with legal and human resources to review the appropriate policies and procedures. It also involves an examination of the data classification structure and data management lifecycle processes. One of the integral components for a successful privacy program is identifying data owners responsible for classifying data and controlling access. Another issue that is frequently not addressed in privacy assurance programs is having an incident response plan developed to deal with customers, business partners, and the media when this information is compromised.
