Reaching New Heights: The Journey to Cyber Maturity
Just like climbing a mountain, achieving cyber maturity is a journey that requires planning, preparation, and incremental progress. The climb may seem daunting at first, but by breaking it down into manageable stages, such as establishing a strong foundation, implementing best practices, and continuously assessing and improving, organizations can reach new heights in their cybersecurity capabilities.

Preparing for the Climb
During this stage, similar to a climber researching a mountain's terrain and potential hazards, identifying risks and threats is crucial. This involves assessing vulnerabilities, assets, and potential threats in cybersecurity and establishing a baseline of current security measures.
How We Can Help
Our team conducts interviews and infrastructure examinations to identify critical systems that support your operations. Identifying these systems is essential for surviving a cybersecurity incident.
Cybersecurity Risk Assessment
Whether you are just beginning or well into this stage, a cybersecurity assessment can help uncover the greatest threats to your operations.

Protecting Your Summit
During the Protect stage, organizations establish safeguards to defend their systems and data against potential cyber threats. Similar to climbers preparing with appropriate gear for harsh weather and hazards on the mountain, cybersecurity protection measures include access controls, firewalls, encryption, and more to prevent unauthorized access and data loss.
How We Can Help
Just like climbers routinely inspect and test their gear, we can help organizations review and update their protective measures to stay effective against evolving threats. Once we have identified each critical system within your operation, we assess how well these systems are protected. We ensure that your security measures are sufficient to safeguard your systems and data against cyber-attacks.

Remaining Vigilant
The Detect stage is critical for organizations to identify potential cyber threats and attacks that could compromise their security. It is similar to climbers being vigilant for potential hazards, such as unstable terrain or changes in weather conditions. Organizations must implement technologies and processes, such as security monitoring and intrusion detection, to detect any potential security breaches. The longer hackers can remain undetected in your network, the more systems they can compromise, making it harder to evict them and clean up after them.
How We Can Help
By reviewing your current systems and processes, we can determine if they are sufficient to identify when a hacker has gained access to your network.

Weathering the Storm
The Respond stage is comparable to responding to unexpected obstacles during a mountain climb. A climber must react quickly and effectively to changes in the environment, such as a sudden storm or rockfall, and organizations must have a plan in place to respond to cybersecurity incidents. This includes having an incident response team, clear procedures for reporting and responding to incidents, and regular practice drills to ensure preparedness. Once a hacker gains access to your network, it is crucial to evict them before they can weaponize their access.
How We Can Help
We can work with you to create a prepared response plan, which can help reduce the time it takes to secure your systems, remove infections, and restore operations that generate profits for your company.

Rebuilding After the Storm
The Recover stage focuses on restoring systems, data, and capabilities after a cybersecurity incident, similar to how climbers need to regroup and put their training into practice to assess their situation after a storm. Organizations must have a plan in place for post-incident recovery, including procedures for data backup and restoration, and methods for analyzing the incident to learn from it.
How We Can Help
With a strong recovery plan in place, we’ve helped organizations minimize the impact of cybersecurity incidents and quickly get back on track. In the event of a worst-case scenario, a structured response plan becomes crucial for recovering each critical system in the plant. We recommend that this includes spare systems kept on standby, air-gapped data backups that are beyond the reach of hackers, and redundant backups to ensure a clean copy of the data to be restored.
