Cybersecurity Strategy & Assessments

In an increasingly connected economy, the importance of cyber security and risk management rises. You need to validate, re-orient and re-align your cybersecurity strategy.  

Assess your capabilities and maturity with an ISG assessment built off of industry-leading frameworks (e.g., NIST CSF, CIS Top 20, ISO) and market-leading benchmark data. We’ll help you baseline your maturity levels and develop transformational roadmaps to move up the maturity curve.

Sourcing Cybersecurity

Outsourcing cybersecurity tools and services on a stand-alone basis or as embedded services can be essential in times of scarce resources and increasing professional and advanced persistent threats. 

When sourcing operational services, your chosen partner’s compliance with your corporate information security controls, policies and standards impacts your cyber security’s resilience. Managing your transaction and transition means carefully segregating duties between your organization, your partner and its internal governance.

Transform your Cybersecurity with Digital Operations

Re-directed strategy, digitization approaches and sourcing of services and tools let you achieve the expected value leveraging holistically managed transformation measures. Digital tools and services improve efficiency and lower failure rates. End-to-end business processes and connected or digital products require extra-vigilant security protocols. 

ISG knows the market best practices. We’ll enable your successful digital transformation with a cyber security operations and management model.

Zero-trust Network Approach Execution

Jun 22, 2021, 15:06
With ISG’s help, a large insurance company implements an approach to align its network design with a zero-trust network architecture methodology.
Title : Zero-trust Network Approach Execution

Zero-trust network architecture is an approach in enterprise network architecture design in which all communications, regardless of their source (internal or external), must be authenticated and specifically allowed. 
One of the prevalent technologies that aligns the network architecture with zero-trust network methodology is micro-segmentation.  
Micro-segmentation, a trendy project within the security domain, ring-fences each application separately as opposed to traditional model of ring-fencing a set of applications. As a result of this model design, risk of lateral movement attack reduces dramatically.
ISG helped to create and implement a strategic roadmap, including the identification of crown jewel applications. This was accomplished by reviewing the business impact analysis (BIA) and privacy impact analysis (PIA) report and performing a risk analysis to prioritize applications. 
ISG also provided a plan for effective roll out of the technology and delivered the project deliverables on time and in-budget. We established an effective relationship with application owners via presenting the project business case and controlled enhancement through increasing visibility over each application’s communications.
The company received a widespread solution that includes all applications of the organization. ISG also provided the operation and service delivery key performance indicator (KPI) design.
After executing this approach, the company is able to apply more granular controls by imposing other types of segmentation, such as nano-segmentation focusing on process- and user-level authentication. This project brought all applications to the final mode of micro-segmentation operation which is now the enforced mode. The approach also covers applications hosted on containers.
Following project success, the company is ready to implement a group HR-based access role model, ensuring compliance with separation of duty (SOD) and security standards.
