Healthcare CISOs and CIOs continue to struggle to get the resources they require to address increasing threats in the digital environment and too often they are presented with risk analysis reports that simply contain a laundry-list of security control failures.
When is the Best Time to Have an Assessment Done?
Our experienced security team has developed a successful approach to providing CISOs and CIOs with the information they need to best demonstrate to executives where their security risks are, how they impact the business, and how constrained IT security budgets can be used to lower their security risk to acceptable levels.
"Threat-Based Risk Assessments should be conducted annually at minimum, and also when a company is experiencing any elements of organizational or technical change."
- Adam Kehler, Principal Consultant - Risk, Security & Privacy
These critical assessments go beyond adherence to HIPAA Security Rule and feature proprietary advanced tooling and a methodology designed to rapidly prioritize realistic threats to critical assets, empowering our clients to focus on the security controls that generate the most immediate long-term value.
Working with a security team as experienced as Online's brings a wealth of benefits to any company. Our years of work in the ever-changing Infosecurity domain have allowed us to identify five main benefits that a Threat-Based Risk Assessment will provide.
