Strategy Development

With the increase in cyber security, threats, and risk, budget prioritizing and budgeting becomes a more significant challenge when they continue shrinking.

Let our strategic process leaders come alongside and work through the process to identify and prioritize the most significant risks. Don’t let the daily distractions of service security operations prevent you from the strategy that makes the most impact. Have a three to five-year period that will address this. The current future needs to be prepared to use state and federal support to protect critical and non-critical operations to support your constituents.  

Successful programs have elements of implementation, operations, and validation checks. This statement is true for all cybersecurity programs.
A good governance and compliance program is more than just a single assessment; the entire program starts with simple things like the assets available and leads into formal assessments. Our governance and compliance program includes implementing, assessing, and managing using your organization’s tools or bringing ours. We can adapt if you need to outsource your entire governance and compliance program or need some help on track.

Governance and Compliance

All successful programs have elements of implementation, operations, and validation checks. This statement is true for all cybersecurity programs. Governance is a crucial part of the strategy to understand the systems in place. They’re ready to support daily operations and the ability to recover after an incident. Compliance is the demonstration policy system implementation to trust but verify. A good governance and compliance program is more than just a single assessment; the entire program starts with simple things like the assets available and leads into formal assessments. Our goats and complaints program includes all aspects of implementing, assessing, and managing using your organization’s tools or bringing the necessary tools. Our team can adapt if you need to outsource your entire governance and compliance program or need a little help on track.

The total cost of ownership in budgeting is often overlooked as a cybersecurity program element. The reality is that financial and personal resources are limited; there is a great need to do more with less. Our budgeting program looks at the current spending to identify ways to use services provided by the federal and state governments at no cost. It also includes a review of expenditures for cloud services to ensure that licensing has the most impact with the lowest price. We don’t assume the current strategy or direction for the organization is the right one. We look at the current spending and future needs to devise a plan to fit the organization’s direction.

Program Support

Cybersecurity programs and compliance frameworks require effort to ensure readiness. Many government organizations process payments and adhere to critical infrastructure needs. Additionally, resources from state and federal programs must align with goals and objectives before releasing financial support with grants. Organizations must translate their operational cyber security program into a framework organization to demonstrate compliance. Support objectives focus on day-to-day operations, internal validation of readiness, and coordinating external assessment activities.

We are here to lead the project management for gap and readiness assessments and operating compliance to achieve and maintain readiness. Our team can run or supplement your current resources. Our tools are independent and conflict-free for most frameworks and are used by government organizations, including internal assessments to help organizations stay prepared.
