EMBER’s Security Posture
Management Services
Security posture management is the perpetual security operations practice of assessing, monitoring, and improving an organization’s overall security posture. It is a constant cycle of evaluating, fixing, changing, and optimizing an organization’s security measures, policies, and controls to align with industry best practices and compliance, governance, and risk management objectives. The overarching goal of security posture management is to maintain a strong, resilient security posture and security response readiness. It encompasses both technical and non-technical aspects of security, including people, processes, and technology.
How EMBER’s SPM Works
EMBER’s security posture management services incorporate a range of services and activities, including
Risk Assessments
Conducting regular risk assessments to identify potential vulnerabilities, threats, and risks to an organization’s systems, networks, and data, helping to prioritize security efforts and allocate resources effectively.
Security Policies and Procedures
Developing and implementing comprehensive security policies, procedures, and guidelines that govern the organization’s security practices, including defining access controls, data classification, incident response plans, and other security-related policies.
Monitoring and Detection
Continuous monitoring of systems and networks to detect and respond to security incidents in real time. This includes employing security information and event management (SIEM) systems, log analysis, intrusion prevention systems (IPS), and other monitoring tools.
Incident Response
Establishing incident response processes to effectively handle security incidents when they occur. This involves defining roles and responsibilities, creating playbooks, and conducting regular drills to ensure a timely and coordinated response.
Continuous Improvement
Continuously evaluating and improving the security posture through feedback loops, lessons learned from security incidents, industry best practices, and emerging technologies.
Compliance and Audit
Complying with relevant industry regulations and standards, such as PCI DSS, HIPAA, GDPR, and conducting regular audits to ensure adherence to security requirements.
“According to a 2022 Google cloud survey, 41.4% of respondents plan to increase their investment in cloud-based services and products. Security solutions built for legacy infrastructure cannot adequately protect your cloud environment, creating a security gap that hackers are eager to exploit. An SPM solution engineered for the cloud can reduce your risks and keep cloud-based infrastructure safe.”
