FIXING ISSUES BEFORE THEY HAPPEN

Imagine several months passing without having to worry about an IT-related issue. No hassles over software updates or integration, no frustration around downtime and no lost sleep over a security breach. You’re away from the office, feeling confident that your company’s complete IT infrastructure is being fully taken care of.

  • Step 1: Determine the scope of the risk assessment

    A risk assessment starts by deciding what is in scope of the assessment. It could be the entire organization, but this is usually too big an undertaking, so it is more likely to be a business unit, location or a specific aspect of the business, such as payment processing or a web application. It is vital to have the full support of all stakeholders whose activities are within the scope of the assessment as their input will be essential to understanding which assets and processes are the most important, identifying risks, assessing impacts and defining risk tolerance levels. A third-party specializing in risk assessments may be needed to help them through what is a resource-intensive exercise.

  • Step 2: How to identify cybersecurity risks

    You can’t protect what you don’t know, so the next task is to identify and create an inventory of all physical and logical assets that are within the scope of the risk assessment. When identifying assets, it is important to not only establish those which are considered the organization’s crown jewels — assets critical to the business and probably the main target of attackers, but also assets attackers would want to take control over, such as an Active Directory server or picture archive and communications systems, to use as a pivot point to expand an attack. Creating a network architecture diagram from the asset inventory list is a great way to visualize the interconnectivity and communication paths between assets and processes as well as entry points into the network, making the next task of identifying threats easier. 

  • Step 3: Analyze risks and determine potential impact

    Now it is time to determine the likelihood of the risk scenarios documented in Step 2 actually occurring, and the impact on the organization if it did happen. In a cybersecurity risk assessment, risk likelihood — the probability that a given threat is capable of exploiting a given vulnerability — should be determined based on the discoverability, exploitability and reproducibility of threats and vulnerabilities rather than historical occurrences. This is because the dynamic nature of cybersecurity threats means likelihood is not so closely linked to the frequency of past occurrences like flooding and earthquakes are for example.

  •  Step 4: Determine and prioritize risks

     

    However, no system or environment can be made 100% secure, so there is always some risk left over. This is called residual risk and must be formally accepted by senior stakeholders as part of the organization’s cybersecurity strategy.

WHAT IS Cyber Security?

Cyber security is the application of technologies, processes and controls to protect systems, networks, programs, devices and data from cyber attacks. It aims to reduce the risk of cyber attacks and protect against the unauthorised exploitation of systems, networks and technologies.
