Cybersecurity
Infrastructure

The Cybersecurity Assessment provides your business with a foundational analysis of your cybersecurity program and practices, taking your current software usage and deployment position into consideration. The analysis will be the basis for the evaluation of the business’s basic cybersecurity state, providing insights into what software is deployed and areas of potential risk. The analysis will also provide guidance on cybersecurity programs and policies to help enable strong software asset management and improved cybersecurity.

You will be surprised by our findings.

This assessment is ideal for businesses concerned about:

  • Preventing data breaches and lost revenue
  • Combating credential theft and fraud
  • Managing infrastructure and devices
  • Regulation of their industry

With cybersecurity, a safety-first approach is vital. The purpose of the assessment is to take a comprehensive look at your cybersecurity infrastructure, including current software deployment and usage, and receive key insights to help you establish the right processes for a cyber-risk reduction in the cloud.

INPUTS FROM YOU

We will require:

  1. A comprehensive assessment of the business’s existing IT infrastructure and environment, including on-premises, cloud, and as available outsourced installations for all affiliate’s locations and/or divisions
  2. Protocols for accessing the network and corporate network connectivity to external networks
  3. Any IT monitoring tools that the business uses
  4. The business’s IT vision and/or road map, including current cybersecurity concerns and plans
  5. The business’s IT policy manual related to managing cybersecurity – if one exists
  6. The business’s published data privacy policy and strategy

Based on the size of your environment and agreed scope, SoHo will use one or more automated discovery tools to collect inputs from your IT estate that will be the basis for establishing the areas of cloud capabilities.
