Overview

Uncovering, prioritizing, and developing remediation strategies to address costly cybersecurity risks is an important step in improving your overall security posture. This can include conducting regular vulnerability assessments and penetration testing to identify potential vulnerabilities, and implementing security controls to mitigate those risks.

One way to improve your cybersecurity posture is by providing user awareness training to your employees. This will help to ensure that they are aware of potential risks and know how to identify and report suspicious activity. Additionally, it is important to establish security policies, procedures, and guidelines that employees must follow to protect company assets and data.

Another way to improve your security posture is by supporting your security team with a Virtual Chief Information Security Officer (CISO). A Virtual CISO, is a cybersecurity expert who provides expertise and guidance in all aspects of information security, but does not have a physical presence in the company. A virtual CISO can help you to develop a comprehensive security strategy, identify and prioritize risks, and implement security controls to mitigate those risks.

Overall, it's important to remember that cybersecurity is an ongoing process and requires regular monitoring, testing, and updating of security controls to ensure they are effective in protecting against evolving threats.

It's important to understand that compliance with regulations is important and can often incur harsh penalties if compliance is not met. Organizational due diligence is the responsibility of organziation leadership and can legally fall on the CEO of the organization even if the CEO is unaware of said regulations. Organizational due diligence can also include an assessment of an organization's cybersecurity practices, controls, and technologies to determine if they meet industry standards and regulatory requirements. This can help identify potential risks that could impact the organization's ability to operate effectively or cause reputational damage. The outcome of the due diligence process provides valuable information for decision-making and risk management.
