Improving Your Risk Management

Risk Can Come at Your Business From Every Direction

Managed IT Services can go a long way toward helping a business procure the technology they need to succeed, improve their access to other technology-related resources, and gain access to an experienced support team filled with the best and most knowledgeable technicians in Upstate New York. The experienced consultants and technicians at Directive are experts in identifying and mitigating risk. When our team conducts a comprehensive risk assessment, we take into account factors from every side of the business to ensure that all elements of potential risk are covered. 

Some of the things our team looks for include:

• Security vulnerabilities - Some of the most serious risks any business that depends on technology has to consider come from their continuous use of unpatched or out-of-date digital tools. Our team ensures that all of your software and hardware are patched with up-to-date security definitions and versions designed to provide protection against the myriad of threats that look to use these vulnerabilities as a pathway to infiltrate your networks.
• Vendor and remote worker access - Many times, third-party access to network resources can produce risky scenarios for a business. With the right processes and technology in place, however, these crucial relationships can be as secure as any.
• Continuity - One of the biggest risks that a business faces is from an isolated situation that knocks out their ability to operate. In order to get back up and running fast, an organization needs to have a coordinated management strategy and dedicated backup processes in place that can adequately protect organizational resources.
• Employee training - One of the biggest risks a business can have is having a staff that isn’t well-trained in respect to their role in organizational cybersecurity. Our consultants can customize a training platform that builds awareness and gives them tools and strategies necessary to be a benefit to an organization’s cybersecurity efforts.  
• Regulatory compliance - Managing risk is a big part of staying compliant with the regulations that your business operates under. Our consultants are well versed in the role technology plays in staying compliant with HIPAA, PCI DSS, GDPR, and many other regulatory mandates.
