Identifying Weaknesses To Bolster Security

Comprehensive evaluations that identify gaps, reduce risk, and strengthen your security posture.

Risk Assessments

Watching Out For Risks

Security risk assessments are recommended annually or upon a significant technical or executive leadership change. They allow for a process that stays on top of changes in your environment while auditing security policies and controls to line up with controls in the NIST Cybersecurity Framework and the Center for Internet Security recommendations. These are driving frameworks for GLBA and HIPAA compliance.

In short, security risk assessments help you understand that you don’t know what you don’t know.

What kinds of risks are found in a security assessment? These are some of the most common:

  • Unpatched vulnerabilities: software level problems that could be fixed with an update but still remain on your systems.
  • Authentication gaps: problems with security measures that leave chances for unauthorized persons to access your systems.
  • Cloud misconfiguration: settings and control problems that create vulnerabilities in your relationship with cloud tools like Microsoft Copilot, AWS, and Azure.
  • Compliance violations: any detectable operational issues that take you out of compliance.
  • Incident response gaps: areas missing from your incident response plan that could leave you vulnerable.

Solutions That Keep You Safe

How do you protect yourself from these risks? A security risk assessment consists of five components that will comprehensively review your entire relationship with technology to find and eliminate as many risks as possible.

Infrastructure Review
In this stage, we go through your network, hardware, and software to make sure everything is up to date, configured correctly, and devoid of avoidable vulnerabilities.

We go through your cloud tools to make sure they are configured properly and utilizing the best security options. We see how you integrate your cloud tools to find any soft points that could be exploited by an attacker.

While we look at security, we also review compliance standards to ensure you are within the lines. Regulations like HIPAA and the Financial Privacy Rule give us explicit parameters that we can follow to make sure you are not breaching compliance.
Human beings often represent the greatest security risk in any digital system. We review your access controls to make sure only the right people are getting into your accounts. We can also review employee behaviors to help ward off risky behaviors that could lead to incidents down the road.
When the assessment is done, we create a comprehensive report that shows you every issue. We pair it with action plans that show you how you can resolve each issue and our recommendations for the best path forward.

We can tailor the action plans to fit your existing relationship with IT. Whether you do things mostly in-house, have a single managed service provider, or have multiple partners, we can make recommendations that fit into that framework.
