OCTAVESM, The Operationally Critical Threat, Asset, and Vulnerability Evaluation, is designed for an organization to gain understanding of their information security needs and tailor a plan to mitigate significant risks in their environment rather than applying scarce resources in an imprudent manner.
This case-study driven, interactive workshop is designed for the business, financial, or technology professional who wishes to attain a proactive security posture and efficiently mitigate the greatest threats to critical business assets.
The OCTAVEŽ framework is designed to be a continuous self-assessment tool to assist an organization with regulatory compliance, accreditation, or legislation such as Sarbanes-Oxley, Gramm-Leach-Bliley, IT Governance, JHACO, or HIPAA. The outcome of an OCTAVEŽ assessment results in the creation of tailored policies and directives for implementing security best practices. OCTAVEŽ is different from typical technology-only focused assessments and is centered on operational issues that balance risk, security policies, and technology with business objectives.
Most organizations recognize the vital role of information technology (IT) in conducting daily business and are aware of the importance of protecting their critical business assets from the increasingly hostile environment of security threats, privacy concerns, legislation, and strict regulatory oversight.
Managing the security and integrity of the corporate infrastructure, while at the same time allowing appropriate access to confidential information, has become a primary concern for IT departments.
