SECURITY ASSESSMENT

Security and Risk Assessment include evaluating current and proposed asset protection mechanisms and how well they identify or protect against threats, vulnerabilities, and likelihood of loss - both known and surmised.  Most organizations realize the importance of conducting assessments; however, they quickly discover that the task is more involved than anticipated.  Consequently, efforts are often terminated due to the lack of funds or commitment.  Our security web site - which contains user-friendly tools and techniques suitable for on-line use by staff employees - provides information and countermeasures designed to reduce loss probability and/or loss impact.  We also include a process flow based on the Information Security (InfoSec) Assessment Methodology (IAM).
