Return on Your Security Investment

A good security program represents a careful balance between security controls and business requirements. The point of maximum return on security investment is where the total cost of security is lowest-including both the cost of security events and the cost of the security controls designed to prevent them.

All security controls have costs-costs to acquire, implement and maintain them; and costs in the limitations placed on the business and the infringements imposed on users. Many security programs create excessive costs or limitations that create conflicts with the core business. This can happen by spreading resources too thinly across too many unimportant vulnerabilities, imposing excessive controls where not required, or failing to effectively mitigate meaningful risks.

INTEK's methodologies focus on generating maximum risk reduction for the minimum possible cost. INTEK's risk-based approach ensures that scarce resources are focused on the critical issues. INTEK's unique provide a comprehensive set of layered security policies, practices and controls that work together to ensure an effective security posture that supports the business efficiently.

In addition to cost-effectively securing the organization, INTEK's can significantly reduce costs in IT and security operations. Patching systems can be a costly and risky process, especially in large organizations where rolling out a single patch can take months. INTEK's program provides controls that eliminate the need for the vast majority of vendor patches, providing equal or superior protection through other more efficient means. Likewise, INTEK's essential configurations appropriately secure critical devices in a fraction of the time it would take to conventionally "harden" them.
