Governance & Risk

Enterprise Security Management The identification of information security risks and interdependencies between business functions, processes and locations within an organisation and the continued growth of technology away from a central point of expertise has blurred functional boundaries and has necessitated a change in the manner in which organisations view security. IT security officers can no longer administer security on the principle of `command and control` over information assets, as today information is dispersed and used beyond traditional boundaries. Information security practitioners must re-examine the key operating levers they have available to them and incorporate business as well as physical security risks. Such integrated decision making processes dramatically improve the value of information security to the business. RUauthorised Ltd consultants provide customers assistance to develop and implement organisational information security integration ensuring focus on information security disciplines within the organisations mission.

Portal Security Infrastructure

A portal is a vehicle that can be used to gain access into an organisations computer environment by mobile and remote business users. It is a thin layer which can enable aggregation, integration and present information, transactions and applications to the user according to their role and preferences. Portals must be integrated with the organisations various security infrastructure components such as authentication, authorization, encryption and single sign-on controls.

RUauthorised Ltd IT Security Risk-Governance consultants provide customer assistance to control the risks associated with inappropriate data exposures involving network access.

Application Architecture, Engineering and Lifecycle Security

Application security is much more than technology. It is an ongoing process involving people and practices. Upfront application security architecture and design performed against a defined set of security objectives based on threat modelling is a business and functionality requirement not only in new builds but also with all application changes and enhancements including emergency changes. Such architecture and design needs to be flexible enough to change with the business strategy and objectives while offering adequate protection to prevent unauthorised access.

An architecture and design review helps our customers to validate the security-related design features of application before the start the development phase. This allows for the identification and correction of vulnerabilities before they can be exploited and before the fix requires a substantial reengineering effort.
