Home > Security Services > GRC- Governance Risk and Compliance
GRC is the umbrella term covering an organization's approach across these three areas: governance, risk management, and compliance. We help CISOs, CIOs and CTOs manage GRC programs.
Following are the services provided by CyberDots as part of the GRC.
To manage complex regulatory environments and align IT delivery goals with business strategy we at CyberDots create and tailor best practice policy frameworks to help facilitate operations and recommend advanced governance designs.
We evaluate an organisations’ current level of maturity against a well-designed maturity model based on the best practices taken from frameworks like ISO 27001, PCI-DSS, NIST, ASD top 4/Essential 8 and COBIT. We also help define and formulate desired state maturity model for organization. Once defined using gap analysis on the current and desired state and based on of best practices, we help achieve target maturity level for the organisation by designing custom short, medium and long term security roadmaps and program of works to achieve and maintain desired security state.
Using the security best practices and compliance with ISO/PCI-DSS/NIST guidelines, we establish a framework to evaluate, on board and manage third party vendors. We assist in creation of a third party evaluation checklists, questionnaire and governance guidelines.
We can also help respond to third-party questionnaires and align/create policies and procedures as per third-party requirements.
Our years of experience at CyberDots in dealing with several compliances and standards like NIST, CIS benchmarking, ISO 27001, PCI-DSS, ASD (Australian Signals Directorate) and Australian Government Information Security Manual (ISM) guidelines makes us an apt choice to support you with this initiative.
We develop ISMS (Information Security Management System) framework by creating customized policies to meet the requirements of our customers as well as meeting industry specific standards or compliance. We create simple, effective and compliant policies.
Our methodological approach across people processes and technology drives an organization towards a common and well-defined cloud strategy. Our customized approach to an organization’s cloud transformation ensures successful move into cloud services.
We assist organizations by evaluation and adoption between various cloud and service models be it public, private and hybrid or IaaS, PaaS, SaaS.
Cloud Security Health Check services forms an essential part of the cloud strategy. We use appropriate tools and processes to ensure continuous compliance of the cloud services as per best security best practices and benchmarks like CIS.
Visibility to the risks associated with critical assets and overall IT is one of the best investments that an organisation can make. Risk assessment is not meant to only be a compliance tick box for organizations. Risk management forms a significant part of the strategic roadmap creation with a view to allocate budget and resources towards the most prevalent risks to the business.
Risk assessment is also an essential part of almost all the compliance initiatives be it ISO 27001, PCI-DSS, NIST guidelines, COBIT, ASX-100 guidelines so essentially this is an an important activity which every organisation should do irrespective of its size and the sector.
Cyber Dots helps Organisations to get most value out of IT risk assessments. We provide risk visibility around the most critical assets, associated current controls and existing gaps and once identified we provide risk treatment plans to mitigate those risks. We can create an appropriate risk management framework utilizing standards such as ISO 27001 and PCI-DSS audits, COBIT, ASX 100 and Australian government ISM guidelines and to match the industry specific needs and business appetite.
CyberDots provides end to end consultancy for your journey towards creating an ISMS (Information Security Management System) from ground up and to achieve ISO 27001 certification. Our service includes creating all the documentation required to establish an ISMS starting from SOA (Statement of applicability), policies, procedure and standards creations, internal audits etc. If required we also certify an organization.
The team at CyberDots has years of experience including auditing and certifying national switches, global banks, multinational financial institutions and designing patents pending payment processing systems as per the PCI-DSS guidelines.
We can prepare organisations for the PCI-DSS audit. We help organisation in getting PCI-DSS level 1 and Level 2 onsite audits using a QSA resulting in AOC (Attestation of compliance), COC (Certificate of Compliance) and ROC (Report on compliance). Using our Qualified Security Assessor (PCI QSA), we complete the audit and liaise with your acquiring bank to report your compliance status.
CyberDots help organisations in the gap assessment for SOC 1/2/3 along with providing remediation guidance to prepare for the actual audit. We can also conduct the actual certification process against SOC1, SOC 2 and SOC 3 using our trusted certification partners.
We help organisations to comply withAustralian Government’s Information Security Manual (ISM) guidelines and Protective Security Policy Framework (PSPF).
ASD (Australian Signals Directorate) top 4 strategies to mitigate targeted cyber intrusions are the most effective security controls an organisation can implement. ASD assesses that implementing the Top 4 will mitigate at least 85% of the intrusion techniques that the Australian Cyber Security Centre responds to. These Top 4 mitigation strategies for targeted cyber intrusions are mandatory for Australian Government organisations as of April 2013.
In Feb 2017, ASD introduced Essential 8 i.e. four additional controls, along with the Top 4 to form the Essential 8. Incorporating the Top 4, the eight mitigation strategies with an 'essential' rating are so effective at mitigating targeted cyber intrusions and ransomware that ASD considers them to be the cyber security baseline for all organisations.
CyberDots helps evaluating the organisation against the ASD maturity model to gauge the current level of maturity and helps creating a roadmap and recommended plan to achieve the target level of maturity by creating clear set of guidelines, tools and consultancy offering.
