A Security Review is usually carried out before we attempt to fix security problems. Our approach to performing Security Review projects is made up of 5 steps:

1. Initial Risk Evaluation
What information do you need to protect? What hazards and risks is your IT infrastructure exposed to? What obligations do you have to protect your information?

2. Security Needs Assessment
We perform a detailed review of the following: Policies and Procedures, Physical Security, External Access Security (using Ethical Hacking techniques via the Internet), Internal Network, and Business Applications/Databases.

3. Security Trends
Technology North has developed a Security Trends Report that contains up-to-date information on IT security trends. During our review of your security needs, this information is updated and customized for your use.

4. Security Recommendations
Once the business needs for security are understood, specific recommendations can be prepared. These are practical, detailed recommendations for implementing new security solutions. An overview implementation plan and cost estimates are also provided.

5. Security Policies
In many cases, an operational security policy is needed to ensure that the recommended changes are formally recognized. The policy can also be updated on an ongoing basis and used to keep management and staff informed.
