Cybersecurity governance demands dedication and commitment from management, along with security expertise, to steer effective risk management strategies. Strong governance is vital for mitigating reputational risk and showcasing due process and diligence to clients and regulatory bodies alike. CSI offers a comprehensive range of affordable Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) services to foster cyber resilience and enhance maturity gradually and cost-effectively.
All organisations should plan for potential cyber incidents, including data breaches and system unavailability. By continually strengthening Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) processes, one can aim to mitigate cyber risks and reduce the impact of a data breach or cyber-attack. Strong governance within the organisation is crucial for managing reputational risk and demonstrating due diligence to both clients and regulatory authorities.
For this reason, many entities are now pursuing ISO 27001 Certification for two primary reasons: firstly, it offers an internationally benchmarked roadmap for Information Security Governance, and secondly, it serves as a respected demonstration of commitment to Information Security Governance. Increasingly, companies are requiring entities within their supply chain to also be certified to further mitigate cyber-related risks. CSI Advisory offers a comprehensive range of affordable, partnership-driven GRC services with security as a top priority.
The ISO 27001 standard focuses on establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continually improving an Information Security Management System (ISMS). The establishment and implementation of an ISMS are influenced by the organisation’s needs, objectives, security requirements, organisational processes, and the size and structure of the organisation.
CSI can assist with an ISO27001 internal audit function as required by the standard specification. The function of an internal audit is to attest to the functioning of the Information Security Management System (ISMS) and the maturity thereof.
A gap analysis is a step towards determining the current security maturity status to enable establishing an implementable strategy as per the context of the organisation.
Cyber security governance requires dedication and commitment from management, and the security know-how, to guide efficient risk management strategies. Good governance is essential for securing reputational risk and being able to demonstrate due process and diligence to both clients and regulatory authorities. CSI has a full range of affordable advisory services to build cyber resilience and increase maturity gradually and cost-effectively.
Compliance to regulations such as POPIA and GDPR are an essential component of cyber risk governance. Compliance to these often poses a challenge on where to begin and how to develop a suitable cyber security plan. CSI has developed an expert driven, partnered track to meeting your compliance requirements.
