Controls
Implementing security controls helps minimize risks. Security controls should flow out all risk management processes in an organization.
Our security controls provide complete assurance that your infrastructure and systems run optimally. Our aim is to implement efficient security controls that heighten IT security and accelerate the compliance process.
Types of Security Controls
There are three main security controls to implement in your organization. These include physical, technical, and administrative controls.
For Organizations that leverage Cloud service providers such as Amazon web services or Microsoft Azure, physical controls are implemented by the Cloud Service provider.
Technical security controls
Technical controls involve the use of various technologies to protect assets. These technologies include:
Antivirus protection
Encryption
Intrusion detection and prevention systems (IDS and IPS)
Security firewalls
These controls are designed to protect hardware, software, and data from threats.
Administrative Security Controls
Administrative security controls revolve around the human aspect. This includes all levels of personnel, from top to bottom. They establish the procedures, rules, and responsibilities of the organization’s personnel towards its security.
Preventive Security Controls
Preventive security controls are the security measures that can stop unwanted activities from occurring. These include monitoring, risk assessments, layered security architecture, and much more.
Other types of security controls include:
Detective security controls
Corrective security controls
