Security GAP Assessments & Audit Readiness
A methodical assessment of your company’s present security posture in relation to relevant industry, regulatory, or internal requirements is part of Security GAP Assessments and Audit Readiness services. Finding non-compliance or weak points and getting your company ready to pass internal, external, or regulatory audits are the objectives.
