Questions

Assessment questions, answered.

How long does an assessment take?

It depends on your size and how many systems and locations you have. We set the scope and the dates with you before we start.

Which framework should we be assessed against?

The one your customers, regulators or insurer care about. If nobody's asking yet, we usually start with the NIST Cybersecurity Framework.

Will this disrupt our IT team?

Very little. We need some of their time for interviews and access to records, and we plan it around their work.

What happens if the findings are worse than expected?

Then you know, and that's the point. The plan puts the worst problems first.

    What Current Regulation Requires Around Security Program Assessment

    Federal regulations mandate regular security assessments for organizations handling controlled unclassified information (CUI). Executives are accountable for demonstrating that security controls are implemented correctly and operating as intended, but many organizations lack clear ownership of the assessment process. This guide explains the regulatory requirements, what leadership must oversee, and how to establish accountability.
