Our Cynergy Governance services enable organisations to oversee activities relating to Information and cyber security, ensuring they meet the agreed strategic objectives for the business, and contribute to the overall performance of the organisation.
Why you might need this service
Information and Cyber Security is ultimately risk management, identifying those risks that threaten your business’s ability to meet its strategic aims, and mitigating them appropriately against your risk appetite. It is therefore important to establish a governance framework, including roles and responsibilities, that engages stakeholders across the business to review the effectiveness of security practices, make required decisions, and escalate where necessary.
The service is delivered through a blend of on-site and remote support and is comprised of a current state assessment, followed by a governance model designed to meet your organisation’s specific requirements.
