Cybersecurity Programmes

Our vCISO consulting team is comprised of seasoned cybersecurity executives who understand how to balance your business needs with compliance requirements, risk, and emerging threats. Our vCISO consultants provide advisory services to assist your organisation in navigating cybersecurity policy and programme challenges.

Whether our team is merely augmenting a robust security and IT team, or providing all information security services, the offering can be tailored to your business.

We also develop cybersecurity programmes for organisations that may not have the inhouse resources and expertise to invest in programme strategy and development. Using our vast industry experience and depth of subject matter experts, we can tailor a cybersecurity programme that assists in improving your organisation’s overall risk management. Our cybersecurity programmes ensure that security risks are managed and that there is continual growth and maturation through the strategy and roadmap provided.

An end-to-end solution for all cybersecurity protection services is critical to a robust security posture, however if a company leaves out the crucial element of training the human firewall, breaches will still occur. CyberClan’s. Cybersecurity Awareness Education and Training services provide formal cybersecurity education to your workforce on how to recognise different security threats and the recommended steps to address them.

With a focus on cyber risks, information technology (IT) best practices, regulatory compliance, and other business-related topics, we take a regularly updated and tested approach to workforce awareness, training, and education that can be customised to meet your organisation’s needs and culture and cover the most pertinent threats, along with how to address them.

Modules include short, informative, and fun videos that help employees understand how their behaviour can positively impact cybersecurity based on, but not limited to, the following topics:

• Public WiFi Safety
• Social Media Security
• Mobile Security
• Phishing
• Ransomware
• USB Safety
• Shadow IT
• Password Security
• Insider Threat
• General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
• Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)

Phishing simulations and tests raise real-time awareness of these attacks within your organisation to assess your employees’ current level of awareness, actively engage them with your security initiatives, and strengthen their security behaviour through tangible, real-life scenarios.

Actions are then reviewed, assessed for improvements, and a plan is crafted to be distributed internally. As the regulatory environment continues to evolve and threat actors find new ways to breach a network, it’s important that tabletop exercises are repeated for updates and the inclusion of any new personnel.

Tabletop exercises work in conjunction with Incident Response Plans, as they help determine if emergency response plans are documented, understood, and accurate.

Benefits:

• Increase awareness and understanding of threats
• Help evaluate the organization’s overall incident preparedness
• Identify deficiencies or gaps in the organization’s Incident Response plan, including technical, planning, and procedural
• Clarify roles and responsibilities during an incident

Validate and qualify vulnerability assessment findings by using controlled attacks that assess specific aspects of an organisation’s security programme, critical systems, network, and applications. Tests can be external and internal and follow ethical hacker protocols.

CyberClan’s penetration testing approach follows the NIST SP 800-115, a standard widely adopted in the industry.

We use various techniques to gain access, including the following:

We recommend conducting regular penetration tests after an organisation reaches an appropriate cyber hygiene level that is reflected by vulnerability scans no longer showing a large number of critical or high-level risk areas. Our penetration testing service uses ethical hacking methods to attack and exploit vulnerabilities in critical systems, networks, and applications. Testing can be conducted remotely or physically onsite, as circumstances warrant.

To achieve their goal, our experienced risk management team uses automated tools as well as manual techniques to access the client’s network by exploiting existing security weaknesses within the environment. Our team goes beyond the limitations of automated scanning to identify the root cause of underlying exploitable vulnerabilities and provide a detailed description of how vulnerabilities were used to gain access to a client’s applications, systems, and data.

We deliver a final report with findings and high-level recommendations for our penetration testing service.
