No industry utilizing technology to achieve its goals is exempt from experiencing a cyber attack— and that’s no fabrication. Manufacturing companies must be sure to build strong risk management programs and continually assess systems and operations for potential risks to their production cycles.
Cyber attacks take industrial sabotage to a whole new level. As more and more manufacturers integrate complex technology tools into their production cycles, relying on everything from complex databases to widespread use of wireless, their IT infrastructures become increasingly complex and strategically vital.
Attacks that disable or interrupt manufacturing are only one part of the problem. Silent attacks aimed at harvesting intellectual property from servers or individual computers can be equally devastating, especially when that information winds up in the hands of counterfeiters or competitors.
Developing a sound risk management platform and assessing security is an important part of keeping operations running and maintaining alignment between business goals and technology systems.
Since 2002, Securance has empowered enterprises to assume proactive security, compliance, and risk management strategies. Through independent assessments of our clients’ IT organizations, infrastructure, and internal controls, we identify the risks, vulnerabilities, compliance gaps, and operational inefficiencies hampering business and IT objectives and provide valuable insights that drive sustainable improvements in cybersecurity, risk management, and the alignment of business and IT.
Our engagements are led by executives with over 20 years of experience in IT security, risk management, and compliance. They are involved in the project from start to finish —from planning to reporting.
We focus on identifying technical risks within our clients’ IT environments before they turn into business risks, such as information security incidents, outages, or loss of reputation.
As technology becomes more advanced, regulations become more complicated.
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 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.
