Assessments
A comprehensive range of Assessments that inform planning and decision-making.
The primary objective of carrying out assessments is to provide interpretative intelligence and ensure the availability of suitable insight to inform planning and decision-making activities.
Assessments are used to define a current status; often informative in its own right, but also, comparing the findings of an assessment with the desired, longer-term outcome is useful for identifying improvement targets or development areas, as well as prioritising resources and expenditure. Sharing an assessment with stakeholders can also be a powerful tool for improving engagement on a project and driving operational development.
We have an extensive range of Assessment options, but the core areas of activity are:
- Technology Maturity Assessment
- Network Vulnerability Assessment
- Security and Enterprise Risk Assessment
- Cyber Maturity Assessment Threat Assessment
- Threat Assessment
- Vulnerability Assessment
- Security Status Assessment
- Operational Performance Assessment
