ASK YOURSELF THESE

• Do you see exponential growth in your business by going digital but are not sure about how secured this transition would be?
• How would you cope up with the increasing amount of legislative, corporate and regulatory requirements to convince your stakeholders that you are confidently managing and protecting critical information completely?
• Can you evidently convince yourself and your stakeholders that this corporate is secured from the threats from cyber criminals and hacktivists who are growing in scale and sophistication?
• Do you model tactical and cyber security strategies while projecting your 5-year plan?
• Are you continually evolving your cyber security architecture to respond to the changing digital environment?

NOW ASK US-

• Do I need help assessing whether the mechanisms to manage our risks are mature?
• Should I consider to create a stronger security culture within my organisation?
• Do I need a better understanding of whether I comply with the varied regulatory requirements?
• Am I looking to take greater control, ensuring that my organisation is prepared for evolving cyber security landscape?
• What should I be considering as part of a cyber security strategy?

By conducting a combination of interviews, workshops, policy and process reviews and technical testing, our team takes a positive view to managing cyber security, and the assessment –

• Identifies current gaps in compliance and risk management of information assets;
• Assesses the scale of cyber vulnerabilities;
• Sets out prioritised areas for a management action plan.

This will allow you to feel free to navigate the cyber security landscape and achieve their business aspirations.

ASSESSMENT INCLUSIONS

Security is concerned with ensuring legitimate use, maintaining confidentiality, data integrity, and auditing in the network. Cyber Maturity Assessment involves security management which is the process of identifying the assets, threats, vulnerabilities, and taking protective measures, which if not done may lead to unintended use of computing systems.

The following are the three important aspects of information security that will be taken care from the security service point of view:

• Security Attack – Any action that comprises the security information owned by your organization.
• Security Mechanism – A mechanism that is designed to detect, prevent, or recover from a security attack.
• Security Service – A service that enhances the security of the data processing systems and the information transfers in the network.

RISK MANAGEMENT

1. We recommend that the risk management process follow the Capability Maturity Model approach, with the following five levels:
2. Initial (chaotic, ad hoc, individual heroics) – the starting point for use of a new or undocumented repeat process
3. Repeatable – the process is at least documented sufficiently such that repeating the same steps may be attempted
4. Defined – the process is defined and confirmed as a standard business process
5. Managed – the process is quantitatively managed in accordance with agreed-upon metrics
6. Optimizing – process management includes deliberate process optimization/improvement

SECURITY MANAGEMENT

ASSET MANAGEMENT

DATA – It’s important to know all the data moving in and out of your organization, where it is stored, and how important it is.

HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE—We identify all the hardware devices and software applications that process the data. We strongly encourage application white-listing (only allowing approved applications) to help you maintain control over your environment.

PHYSICAL PROPERTY AND FACILITIES—Making sure you have the appropriate security processes in place to protect the physical assets that house those systems is vital. This is also critical to having up-to-date and effective disaster recovery plans.

PEOPLE—When it comes to asset management, we often think about hardware and software but forget people. Without making sure you’re adequately managing and equipping people to run those systems, you’re putting your assets at risk for a potential cyber-attack. We make sure employees have an understanding of their role in cybersecurity. It also means creating accountability for the people who are running the systems and processes and establishing contingency plans that consider the loss or lack of availability of critical team members.

THIRD PARTY RISK MANAGEMENT

• Building a Framework for third party categorization to identify which partners need a deeper assessment based on their role in the organization’s business activities, and the size and criticality of the relationship.
• Develop workflow to address the intersection of risk and criticality.
• Ensure appropriate risk transfer.

POLICY FWK.  AND GOVERNANCE

• Cyber-security policy framework elucidates the strategy containing an appropriate approach to combat cyber threats given the level of complexity of business and acceptable levels of risk, duly approved by their Board.
• Cyber security governance comprises of the responsibilities and engagement of Board of Directors and senior management, organizational structures, and processes that protect information and mitigation of growing cyber security threats. Cyber security governance ensures alignment of cyber security with business strategy to support organizational objectives.

THREAT ANALYSIS

The severity assigned to each vulnerability was calculated using the NIST 800-30 standard. This standard determines the risk posed by application based on the exploitability metrics of the vulnerability and the impact that it would have on the business

EXPLOITABILITY METRICS

The difficulty of exploiting  the described security vulnerability includes required skill level and the amount of access necessary to visit the element susceptible to the vulnerability. The difficulty is rated with the following values:

CRITICAL: An attacker is almost certain to initiate the threat event.

 HIGH: Anybody can also exploit the vulnerability or the vulnerability is very obvious and easily accessible.

MEDIUM: The vulnerability requires some hacking knowledge or access is restricted in some way.

 LOW: Exploiting the vulnerability requires application access,  significant time, many social engineering techniques tricks required or a specialized skill set.

 MINIMAL: To exploit the vulnerability the attacker might need high  privilege or not exploitable.

IMPACT

The impact the vulnerability would have on the organization if it were successfully exploited is rated with the following values:

 CRITICAL:  The issue causes multiple severe or catastrophic effects on  organizational operations, organizational assets or other organizations.

 HIGH: Exploitation produces severe degradation in mission capability  to the point that the organization is not able to perform primary functions or results in damage to organizational assets.

 MEDIUM: Application is able to perform its primary functions, but their effectiveness is reduced and there may be damage to organizational assets.

 LOW: Successful exploitation has limited degradation in mission  capability; the     organization is able to perform its primary functions, but their effectiveness is noticeably reduced.

MINIMAL: The threat could have a negligible adverse effect on organizational operations or organizational assets.

BUG CLASSIFICATION

Top security issues tested

Top security issues tested

Our Security experts use a combination of commercial and proprietary tools to run Vulnerability Assessment to discover the potential flaws in your application’s code that can be exploited and then run manual Penetration Tests to help you understand the severity of the flaws and how exploitation of these by hackers can impact your organization in real life.

In web application testing we cover Covers all OWASP Top 10, WASC 26 and moreover CVE / NVDB / SANS Top 20 vulnerabilities.

Apart from these we can find new updated attacks like subdomain takeover, XXE, XSPA, 2FA and Captcha bypass, Race condition bug, CSV injection, reflected file download vulnerability, pixel flood attack, OAuth &API bugs.

INFRASTRUCTURE MANAGEMENT

Stop hackers before they have a chance to attack your system

The most volatile threat against your IT infrastructure is a security breach. The very nature of cybercrime is stealth: hackers find every exposed opening in your network to strike with great speed and without warning, putting sensitive customer and corporate intellectual property in jeopardy. This can include trade secrets, customer payment information and other personal information such as social security numbers. The expense to an organization is multiplied exponentially by the intangible cost lack of public trust can incur.

No “cyber” insurance exists that a company could buy to protect itself completely from cybercrime. However, we can customize a state-of-the-art cyber security plan for you using best security practices, expert advice and the latest security resources available.

RED TEAM BASED ASSESSMENT

A Red Team assessment (Red Teaming) is an advanced security test that imitate a full-scale personalized attack on an organization. The aim is to compromise critical data resources in the organization’s network that could be exploited by an attacker.

Red team assessments are one level above usual penetration testing schemes. It helps to fully test the organization’s ability to detect, protect and respond to an attack. Red team assessments provide the status of the organization’s preparedness in case of a real attack.

Through our RED TEAM ASSESSMENT SERVICE we aim to provide our clients with:

• A real-world perspective of threat actors
• Holistic view of security controls
• Evaluate security incident response capabilities

RED TEAM BASED ASSESSMENT

RedTeam Security’s network penetration test combines the results from industry-leading scanning tools with manual testing to enumerate and validate vulnerabilities, configuration errors, and business logic flaws. In-depth manual application testing enables us to find what scanners often miss. Using this approach, Red Team’s comprehensive approach covers the classes of vulnerabilities in the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) Top 10 2013 and beyond:

• Injection (i.e.: SQL injection)
• Broken Authentication and Session Management

RED TEAM BASED ASSESSMENT – RISK RATING

RISK CALCULATION

OVERVIEW

Risk Calculation is carried out through a quantitative method. The calculation is an industry standard approach and is widely adopted by many organizations across the globe. Please see the detail below for a walkthrough of the risk calculation process.

Calculation of Likelihood is achieved by the equation:

AVERAGE(Threat Agent + Vulnerability Factors) = Likelihood

Calculation of Impact is achieved by the equation:

AVERAGE(Technical Impact + Business Impact) = Impact

Calculation of the finding’s overall Risk Rating is achieved by the following equation:

AVERAGE(Likelihood + Impact) = Risk Rating
