Essential Eight Framework
The Essential 8 framework is a cybersecurity strategy that outlines eight critical controls for organisations to implement to reduce the risk of cyber- attacks. The eight controls are:
Application Control
Patch Application
Configure Settings
User Application Hardening
Restrict Administrative Privileges
Patch Operating Systems
Multi-Factor Authentication
Regular Back-Ups
The goal of The Essential 8 framework is to provide a prioritised and practical set of controls that organisations can implement to improve their overall cybersecurity posture and reduce the risk of cyber- attacks.
Contact us for your security risk audit
Systematic examination of an organisation’s information security practices, policies and systems allows us to identify vulnerabilities and assess the level of risk they pose. The objective of a security risk audit is for us to provide your business with an independent assessment of its cybersecurity posture and to make recommendations for improvements to minimise the risk of cyber-attacks.
A security risk audit typically covers various aspects of information security, including network security, application security, data security, and physical security. The audit may include a review of security policies and procedures, penetration testing and a review of the security infrastructure, such as firewalls, intrusion detection systems and access control systems. The results of the audit are used to identify areas for improvement and to develop a plan for addressing the identified risks.
