IT Risk Management
IT risk is a major concern for any organization, public or private. To protect your data, your reputation, and your bottom line, you need an effective, dynamic IT risk management strategy.
Business leaders hesitate to invest in governance because they think of it as an optional expense. IT leaders resist governance because they assume it will result in micromanagement. However, when properly designed and implemented, IT governance makes life easier for both sides.
IT governance increases efficiency and accountability, measures and drives ROI, and effectively manages resources and investments by aligning IT operations with business strategy. Well-developed IT governance programs incorporate risk management and regulatory compliance, providing organizations with the framework to strategically leverage IT systems and personnel to achieve business objectives and promote continual growth.
We understand the difficulties companies face as they seek to integrate their business objectives, vision, and leadership with the challenges, costs, and risks faced by IT departments. We’ve seen organizations where IT speaks one language, and management speaks another. We speak both languages and use that skill to align information systems with your business goals.
Our experts can help you integrate policies, procedures, and processes with industry standard frameworks, such as COBIT, the CIS 20 Critical Security Controls, ISO 27001, and the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, or develop a hybrid solution that fits your unique needs. As you develop and implement your governance framework, we can also provide specific guidance in areas such as compliance, risk assessment, business continuity and disaster recovery, and IT strategic planning.

As technology becomes more advanced, regulations become more complicated.
In the U.S. alone, the current shortage of information security professionals has reached 500,000. This means two things for businesses that need a qualified CISO: 1) Finding an experienced candidate will be very difficult. 2) Hiring a full-time executive will be costly, because their services are in high demand.
