Sometimes organizations know they need to do something to improve their cybersecurity posture … or, in some cases, something more, something different. They know there is a disconnect between cybersecurity and the business — they just don’t know how to get started or transition to get the best results, given their unique environments and operating processes. What’s truly innovative about RockCyber’s cybersecurity assessments is how they intertwine cybersecurity strategies directly with business alignment and outcomes. This is not just about securing IT assets; it's about shaping cybersecurity as a strategic advantage that supports overall business goals. The service is tailored for organizations that need a cybersecurity approach that is not only robust but also aligned with their business objectives, enhancing both security and business performance.
This approach solves the key problem of the disconnect between cybersecurity practices and business objectives, which many companies struggle with. The RockCyber vCISO and cybersecurity assessment services are particularly valuable for organizations where security must be a driver of cyber resiliency and growth, not just a protective measure.
Let’s talk about how this changes the future for our customers. Traditionally, cybersecurity has often been a siloed IT function, reactive and disconnected from core business functions. RockCyber’s assessments transform this by integrating cybersecurity with business strategy, making it a cornerstone of business planning and execution.
Imagine a before scenario where a company's cybersecurity efforts are technically adequate but not aligned with the strategic business initiatives, leading to inefficiencies and missed opportunities. After a RockCyber assessment, this company strengthens its security and aligns its cybersecurity strategy with business objectives, ensuring that every security investment directly supports business growth and resilience.
With the assessment in place, RockCyber clients typically lean in on the virtual CISO services where the RockCyber team can take the knowledge we have in the field — both figuratively and literally — to establish a strategy that will begin the process of maturity and lead the organization down a path of cyber sustainability.
For example, with one recent oil and gas client, the cybersecurity program the RockCyber created not only reduces cyber risk and improves the ability of the organization to handle and manage a potential cyber incident, but it aligns directly with the organization’s key objectives:
Maintain operating reliability
Drive positive impact on revenue and profit
Ensure digital and physical safety
To achieve this, the team at RockCyber kept the big business picture in mind while focusing on breaking down the problem into smaller projects that be accomplished successfully, building on the past to continue to improve the future.
The RockCyber cybersecurity assessment and vCISO services provide the following benefits:
Establish a business-aligned strategic vision while bringing the skills, experience, and technology needed to execute tactically.
Helping the organization to identify key challenges in security operations, staffing, training, execution, and communication and to help them overcome these challenges with confidence, giving them peace of mind to know we are there by their side every step of the way.
