Security Program Development Services

Developing an information security program is both an IT best practice and a key aspect of managing enterprise risk. To mitigate rapidly growing threats to critical assets and to meet regulatory obligations, companies are becoming increasingly proactive in moving this activity up the priority list.

Illumant has the expertise to help companies design, tailor, and implement security programs to meet their objectives. While we bring proven methodologies and best practices to our program development process, we also work closely with the stakeholders of each client to develop a company-appropriate scalable plan, reflecting size, maturity, complexity, future needs, available resources, and other relevant considerations.

A top-down approach to building an information security program entails conducting a comprehensive inventory, assessment, and prioritization of security risks, documenting a full suite of security policies and procedures, and implementing specific technologies and training.

While this may be the ideal method, we appreciate that due to time and resource constraints, firms often choose initally to only address known critical risks, leaving other risk areas to be explored later. These companies prefer to create a security program organically over time, developing, documenting, and implementing policies, procedures, and practices to meet their evolving risk landscape.

Illumant is flexible and skilled enough to accommodate widely varying objectives and approaches. We can develop a world-class information security program within a single project engagement, as well as take a more evolutionary approach, one step at a time.
