How a cyber Risk Assessment can help protect your business
The cybersecurity Rapid Assessment is particularly beneficial to establish baselines for your current security program, benchmark your maturity against peers and identify critical points of weakness. It also reveals whether gaps stem from weaknesses in personnel, processes or technology. This helps your organization prioritize areas of remediation and allocate resources where they are most needed.
Who needs a Risk Assessment?
According to the RSM US Middle Market Business Index Cybersecurity Special Report, nearly 68% of executives surveyed expect that unauthorized users will attempt to breach their data or systems this year. A cybersecurity Rapid Assessment can help your organization gain a better understanding of your security program and communicate program maturity to key stakeholders, clients and vendors. Since the Rapid Assessment covers a wide range of security controls, your organization can pinpoint areas of strength and weakness, plan accordingly and mark progress over time.
What’s included?
RSM’s Rapid Assessment includes an information security assessment and our cyberthreat intelligence services, all tailored to the unique needs of your industry and your specific security concerns.
- NIST Cybersecurity Framework assessment: This assessment, based on the framework established by the National Institute of Standards and Technology, is an interview-based review of your security controls. The effectiveness of each control is determined by evaluating its policies, procedures and formal governance as well as its technical implementation. Assessment of all your controls provides insight into the maturity of your security program.
- Cyberthreat intelligence services: Nearly all the data stolen from companies is located in the deep web and the dark web, areas difficult to access and navigate without a high level of knowledge and experience. We investigate these areas and common threat actor communication platforms to determine if attackers are currently targeting your organization or industry.
Above all, RSM strives to meet our No. 1 goal: customer satisfaction. We achieve this through three principles:
