OUR APPROACH

We believe CYBER encompasses all things involving technology and information driven processes in an organization; and that the human element makes it all work together when equipped with applied, strategic direction and precise execution enhanced with risk-based security.

We approach cybersecurity from business and mission perspectives. While cybersecurity regulations generally drive cybersecurity actions, our IT and cyber risk consulting teams help companies identify acceptable digital risks and plans to remediate the others.

We align cybersecurity strategy with business strategy. We don’t depend on checklists to quantify IT and cyber risks. We examine risk tolerance in the context of business strategy. Our cybersecurity professionals are technically proficient and possess strong business and risk acumen. As trusted partners and consultants, we capture a company’s cybersecurity vision to ensure that it aligns with business strategy.
