So, what exactly is a
Security Risk Assessment?
A Security Risk Assessment is a security process that involves identifying risks in your company, technology, and processes and verifies that there are controls in place to minimize threats. For example, during the discovery process we identify all databases containing any consumer personal information, an asset. That database is connected to the internet, a vulnerability. In order to protect that asset, you need to have a control in place, in this case it would be a firewall. You have now taken the first step in mitigating risk.
A Security Risk Assessment identifies all your critical assets, vulnerabilities, and controls in your company to ensure that all your risks have been properly mitigated.
