Information Security Audit

A formal assessment of your security posture, your controls and your compliance with policy and standards.

Overview

A security audit is the formal examination and assessment of an organisation’s information security posture, against its own policies, regulations and standards.

Scope

What an audit does for you

  1. Checks proper use

    Confirms that your information systems are being used as intended.

  2. Measures your controls

    Shows how effective your existing security controls really are.

  3. Validates compliance

    Tests compliance with your security policies, procedures and guidelines.

  4. Drives improvement

    Helps you design improvements and starts a process of continual improvement, based on properly recorded data that is reviewed regularly.

Proof that your security investment works, and that it meets your own policies and standards.

In practice

The ITnIS approach

Our audits start from your business and your specific security needs. We monitor compliance with the relevant standards and best practice, and go further than generic checklists.

That includes measuring how effective your information security initiatives are and whether they meet the objectives you set for them, which goes beyond what established standards such as ISO/IEC 27000 require on their own.
