Introduction
INTRODUCTION
Any organisation today faces a constant challenge in preserving the confidentiality, integrity and availability of its information assets, against the broad range of external and internal threats. The failure to take a proactive approach to information risk management is leaving many organisations vulnerable with potentially devastating consequences.
We have on many occasions seen how organisations are battling to. establish a business-aligned, risk-based cyber security programme that can adapt to a constantly changing regulatory, customer, and threat environment.
Wolfpack have over the years established an approach that will:
• Provide you with the highest return on investment (ROI) for your information security spend.• Protect your organisation from a large majority of threats thereby reducing risk.
• Demonstrate a proactive posture to safeguard critical assets.
• Elevate security from an operational function to a strategic business enabler.
Cyberspace is where

Approach
This document outlines our approach to:
INTRODUCTION
• Define a suggested improvement priority road map for the establishment of an Information Risk Management Framework and an Information Security Management System (ISMS) in accordance with ISO 27001:2013 specifications.
• Performing realistic threat testing to ensure the controls are effective.
• Ensure a robust incident management programme is in place.
• Provide a training and awareness programme to transfer skills.
• Correlate and analyse event data.
• Determine suspicious network behaviour, conduct active network scanning and respond to threats more effectively.
• Identify the specific information threats facing your business environment.
• Validate acceptable information risk levels in accordance with business requirements.
• Determine the maturity of existing information risk, people, process and technology controls across the areas within scope.
• Highlight key vulnerabilities and risk areas across the organisation.
ASSESS IMPROVE MONITORStakeholder Engagement – Setting the scene
An information risk workshop will be conducted with key stakeholders in the organisation to highlight major threats facing the organisation, to reinforce the importance of information risk management and ensure all stakeholder teams understand their roles and responsibilities in the upcoming assessment. This will improve the accuracy of responses from all applicable sections within scope of the assessment and encourage open dialogue in order to highlight all major vulnerabilities within the organisation.

A workshop is conducted with senior management and operations to reinforce the importance of information risk management and ensure all stakeholders understand their
roles and responsibilities in the upcoming health check.
Following a rigorous analysis of the assessment results and management concerns, an improvement roadmap is agreed
upon to address high priority risks.
Conduct an Information Risk Assessment
Our proposal intends to review your current capability to provide assurance to senior management that relevant Information Risk requirements are being managed effectively.
We will determine the maturity of your Information Risk capability through the review of existing Information Security, IT Governance and Privacy processes. We propose performing an assessment against a consolidated set of baseline controls from a range of best practices, international standards and legal requirements.
It is recommended the assessment includes members from Strategic (C-Level) , Management and Operational levels to ensure the correct balance of IT governance, business continuity, information security, privacy and cyber security controls are in place.

ASSESS
Information Risk
Assessment Cyber Risk Analysis Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) and community threat intelligence reviews are conducted
Our health check also factors in concerns raised by
stakeholders, audit findings and past incidents 400 vulnerabilities are reviewed in interviews with strategic and tactical teams
Technical review covers asset discovery, vulnerability management, threat analysis and anomalous behaviour
Wolfpack will help determine your current cyber risk status by running simulated threats against different aspects of your environment. Although the threat simulations are passive, they will present data using realistic potential events. This includes IP reputational data from the Open Threat Exchange (OTX) collaboration platform. These simulations identify activity from known threat actors across the globe, including advanced persistent threats
.
Simulated threats include:
• Network and port scanning. • Suspicious database activity. • Scans against web services. • Brute force attacks.• Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) gathering. • Other simulations.
The information risk assessment and cyber risk analysis results will be reviewed in consultation with management, and a priority road map established to address high impact risks.
The following will be considered as part of the risk impact rating
scale:
• Business operations impact
(The potential negative impact on the achievement of the objectives of the Organisation).
• Financial impact
(The potential financial loss that could be suffered by the Organisation as a result of the risk materialising).
• Reputational impact
(The potential negative impact on the reputation / image / credibility of the Organisation).
• National impact
(The potential negative impact on the critical information infrastructure of the Country).

Information security policies or controls alone will not guarantee total protection of information, information systems, services or networks. After controls have been implemented, residual vulnerabilities are likely to remain that can reduce the effectiveness of information security and facilitate the occurrence of information security incidents. This can potentially have direct and indirect adverse impacts on an organisation's business operations. Furthermore, it is inevitable that new instances of previously unidentified threats will occur.
Wolfpack offers a full information security & privacy incident management approach based on ISO 27035 along with on-site training to assist
organisations to mitigate the impact of incidents in their environment.

“Security is a business issue, not a technical issue.”
-T. Glaessner
Insufficient preparation by an organisation to deal with such incidents will make any response less effective, and increase the degree of potential adverse business impact. Therefore, it is essential for any organisation desiring a strong information security programme to have a structured and planned approach to:
• Detect, report and assess information security incidents.
• Respond to information security incidents, including the activation of appropriate controls to prevent, reduce, and recover from impacts. • Report information security vulnerabilities, so they can be assessed and
dealt with appropriately.
• Learn from information security incidents and vulnerabilities, institute preventive controls, and make improvements to the overall approach to information security incident management.
