How do you know if your network is secure?
Protecting your business isn't something you should take for granted. You can't assume, for instance, that because you have a firewall, your network is safe from intrusions. Just because you have documented policies and procedures doesn't mean that they are complete, valid or are being followed.

Security Requirements Vary
Your customers, your data and your network exposure are unique to your business. Knowing your security position from your business viewpoint is the only way to be certain that your critical business assets are protected.

What Is a Network Security Assessment?
Effective network security protects your critical infrastructure and sensitive data against unauthorized access. A network security assessment will identify procedural, technological, configurational and physical security vulnerabilities that may comprise your IT environment.

Beginning with documented IT security policies and procedures, the assessment is conducted from three principle vantage points:
  • From outside the enterprise - the view of the computer infrastructure through the firewall
  • From inside the enterprise - the view of computers from behind the firewall
  • From the computer keyboard - the view from the actual operating system of the individual machine

A thorough assessment enables you to strengthen and enhance your organization's ability to defend critical IT infrastructure and sensitive data against non-authorized access.

Why a Security Assessment from IBS?
IBS understands that security is a business-driven issue, and that a comprehensive assessment starts with understanding what's most valuable to you. While many security assessment services simply provide scans from outside your enterprise, the IBS network security inventory and assessment phases are conducted on-site. We start with detailed inventories and then proceed with interviews with key management and technical personnel to obtain an understanding of your organization's business needs and pertinent network security issues. Using a detailed methodology, we examine your written policies, procedures and their implementation, your network infrastructure and your network's physical environment.

Detailed Assessment Report
You will receive an assessment report detailing your network assets and relevant vulnerabilities and threats. Our analysis explains the implications of each vulnerability and the threat it poses to your organization. We then suggest appropriate remedies for mitigating each vulnerability and threat.

Meaningful Recommendations
Your Network Security Assessment is customized to your organization. The assessment's analysis and recommendations will be weighted to reflect their business importance to your organization.

The Road to Security Starts With Knowledge
The IBS Network Security Assessment is an effective way to ensure your organization's information assets are secure. Whether your concern is meeting federal regulations, protecting valuable data, or exercising due diligence for customers and shareholders, an IBS Network Security Assessment will provide a third-party review of your network's security position. As a result, you will have the knowledge to create a trusted and protected business environment.
