Information Security

Herne Consultants

PROFILE:
We have 20 years of solid experience in implementing security policies, which more recently has included carrying out reviews of the status of BS 7799 implementation, as well as the more traditional forms of support which include advising on physical security measures or managing an organisations security department while hiring permanent replacement.
If you need more technical help such as: Intrusion Detection, Firewall configuration and monitoring of network connections and system administration, we can support you on this too. We can therefore deliver any Information Security project from building your Information Security Management System to managing your System and Network development and maintenance programme.

Philosophy:
How many times have we heard about company Laptop’s being stolen from company cars or people leaving their passwords on a post-it note stuck to their PC Monitor at work? These are just two examples where Information Security policy is not working.

Information Security is a requirement for all businesses. In summary, it is the protection of information on whatever medium it is held and to ensure its' Integrity, Availability and Confidentiality, whilst in their possession and communicated to others.

Previously organisations have asked us to manage their BS 7799 implementation and typically this could cover:

Security Policy development and implementation – publish, approval, communicate, relevance;

Information Security Management System - define for BS 7799, include Service Level Agreements (SLAs) between business functions;

Risk Assessment – identification of assets, comprehensive threat and vulnerabilities analysis;

Risk Management – implement procedures or policies to minimise;

Statement of Applicability, (required for BS 7799 accreditation) – what is the terms of reference for the BS 7799 accreditation;

Information and Physical Security Review – review of all the above, looking for evidence to support decisions, report;

email us for further information, or fill out our enquiry form.
