IT Security Consulting Launches New IT Risk Assessment Services

Security Executives to Gain Greater Understanding of Current State of Risk Across Entire Organization


SAN RAMON, CA--(Marketwired - Aug 18, 2014) - IT Security Consulting today announced the availability of IT Risk Assessment services. The fixed-bid/fixed-deliverable services provide visibility into the current state of risk present in an enterprise organization. They will enable IT executives, particularly those newly promoted or hired, to quickly identify and prioritize initiatives based on the greatest risk to the organization, and proactively address security vulnerabilities before they can be exploited.

"Risk assessments should be a standard part of any organization's strategic plan," commented Ryan Ward, managing director of IT Security Consulting. "But for a new IT executive, getting a realistic overview of an organization's state of security is often difficult, as it is culled from any number of team members who have differing perspectives. What's needed is an independent assessment of risk from an objective third party, so an executive has accurate information to align and benchmark their near and long-term priorities and strategies moving forward."

Throughout the engagement, IT Security Consulting will communicate findings in real time to ensure vulnerabilities are quickly addressed. When the assessment is complete, a detailed report is provided that clearly defines the risks and associated action plans required to improve security.

"Risk management is a critical business driver. Understanding IT risks should be a top priority to ensure security incidents do not derail corporate strategies," said Nelson Cicchitto, chairman and CEO, of Avatier Corp that recently spun off IT Security Consulting as a separate company. "IT Security Consulting's IT Risk Assessment services draw upon our extensive security experience to provide a valuable unbiased third-party expert's perspective, which will bring clarity to a sometimes muddied state of information security."
