CxO Security Assessment

The CxO Security Assessment is a unique tool designed to provide senior executives with a view and assessment of the company’s Information Security risk profile. We have combined and adapted a number of international Security best practices into a weighted self-scoring questionnaire that takes no more than 4 hours to complete.

The tool assists CxOs and their teams to quickly assess their company’s overall information Security programme and corporate governance. The aim is to identify areas for improvement and suggest remediation actions to reduce risk. The Assessment has been compiled based on information sourced from the SANS Institute, Internet Security Alliance, ISO/IEC 17799, COBIT and Gartner, among others.  Areas Covered: Risk Management, People and Organisation, Processes, Technology

The CxO Security Assessment has helped many of our clients to:

• Gain instant access to a Security maturity score and recommendations for remediation;
• Develop an action plan based on priorities and strategy recommendations;
• Gain a holistic view of more than 100 functional areas, tailored to the organisation’s specific IT dependence;
• Become educated on industry best practices and benchmarked against industry peers;
• Allocate expenses using the scorecard as a justification tool for budgets, progress and expenditure approval;
• Define roles and responsibilities and measure performance against key areas.
