Avoid these mistakes when conducting a cybersecurity assessment:

  • 1. Involving the wrong stakeholders

    It is important to involve the right stakeholders, such as IT staff and management, in the assessment process. These individuals have valuable knowledge and insights that help identify weaknesses and areas for improvement. With an experienced partner, you are assured that you will reach the right insights.

  • 2. Insufficient transparency

    A cybersecurity assessment is designed to identify vulnerabilities and help your company in terms of cybersecurity. To get the most out of your assessment, it is important to be open and honest about your company's current security measures and any concerns you may have.

  • 3. Recommendations without priorities

    After a cybersecurity assessment, you will receive a list of recommendations from us to improve your company's security. It is important to prioritize and implement the most urgent measures first. Safe-Connect will help you create this roadmap.

  • 4. Not conducting regular assessments
