CISA

Cyber Risk Assessments

Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency

CISA cybersecurity risk assessment.
Intro

CISA undertakes risk and vulnerability assessments (RVA) for federal agencies, private organizations, and state, local, tribal, and territorial governments.

Our assessment exceeds the same (National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) model.

These assessments aim to pinpoint vulnerabilities that adversaries could potentially exploit to breach security controls. Following the assessment, we furnish clients with data, personalized risk analysis, and recommendations for bolstering their cybersecurity posture.

About the Assessment

It is advisable for organizations to perform cyber risk assessments periodically, tailored to their operational requirements, to evaluate their security stance.

These assessments enable organizations to establish a foundation of cybersecurity metrics, which can be utilized as reference points or benchmarks for future evaluations, aiding in enhancing overall cyber resilience and demonstrating advancement. Such assessments can be conducted using internal resources or with external support.

For example, organizations may scrutinize vulnerabilities by leveraging internal logging and conducting audits of their internet-facing networks.

More Information

Our cybersecurity risk assessment goes beyond the CISA/NIST six step process.

Simply put, SAFECOM does a good job but through conducting these assessments, organizations set a foundation of cybersecurity metrics. SAFECOM is managed by the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency. 

These baselines can then be utilized for reference or comparison with future results, facilitating ongoing enhancements to overall cyber posture and resilience while showcasing progress.

However, we’re able to do the same thing but much faster with less effort through automation.
