Comprehensive Information Security Audit
The information security measures that companies employ don't always provide protection against actual threats and cyberattacks, given that the techniques used by attackers are constantly evolving and their technologies are continually improving. As per every information security standard, it is recommended to conduct regular audits, both from a technical and organizational perspective.
An information security audit enables you to:
