Minimizing information security risks
Risk-based approach in IS -
a way of ensuring IS, which
is based on risk analysis and their
prioritization
The focus is on identifying and understanding potential threats and risks, as well as applying appropriate security measures to manage them. This approach requires constant monitoring and adaptation to changing conditions and threats.
During the Audit process, we compile a consolidated list of information security risks for the company and develop a risk management methodology
On the basis of which the Client gets the opportunity to decide what to do with the risk in the future: minimize, accept or transfer responsibility for the risk to a third party.
We also compile a consolidated list of unacceptable information security events for the company
And we are developing recommendations to minimize the likelihood of unacceptable information security events in the Client's business.
An unacceptable information security event is an event or action that violates information security policies, procedures, rules or norms
Examples of such events may be unauthorized access, malware phishing, fake websites, etc.
