Understanding The Importance Of Conducting A Risk Assessment In 2022

 


As we steamroll into 2022 at a fast clip, one of the biggest buzzwords that you will hear about is Cyber Risk.  Although if you Google this term, you will see many different variants of the definition come up, as it will vary from business to business, and even people’s perception of it.  But how it is defined largely depends upon what your security needs are, and the appropriate controls that you have put into place to  mitigate the chances of any security breach from happening.

But of course as we all know, we all are prone to becoming a victim, there is no way around that.  But there are many ways in which you can reduce those chances from actually happening.  This is an example of risk.  Another example of it is how much downtime can your business tolerate (if hit by a security breach) before real financial damage starts to set in.

So as you can see, there are different ways to look at Cyber Risk.  But today, we hear from a Cyber professional who has done this for years, and we will be getting her insights.  In this podcast, we have the honor and privilege of interviewing the CEO of Tech Safe Systems, Ms. Kim Harshberger.  We will be covering the following topics:

*What is a Risk Assessment?

*Why do I need a Risk Assessment? 

*When should I have a Risk assessment done for my business?

*What can I expect to learn from this process?

*Why should I hire an outside firm to assess my company’s vulnerability? 

*What differentiates TechSafe Systems from other providers?
