Security Risk Assessment
Assessing security risk is not just a good idea, it’s a compliance requirement. Almost all data security and privacy statues, regulations, and standards require organizations to perform security risk assessment as a general foundation for establishing what constitutes reasonable data protections.
Your risk assessment should cover the following areas:
Information security management processes - setting the tone at the top and monitoring performance.
Policies and procedures - defining what is acceptable, how security processes should be implemented and managed.
Access controls and awareness training - defining, managing, and educating users with access to systems.
Technical controls - systemic controls to identify security vulnerabilities and prevent and detect security threats.
Physical controls - physical access controls to facilities and offices (entry/exit points).
Third-party controls - managing third-party interconnections and data access.
Contingency planning - data backup and recovery processes
Incident management and breach reporting - how to respond when an incident happens.
