Risk Assessment (RA)

The risk assessment is a top down analysis of an organization's security posture. Leveraging vulnerability data and security information gathered through other assessment components, along with data collected through targeted questionnaires and interviews, Illumant performs a quantitative risk analysis to determine the top threats to information security, biggest vulnerabilities, and largest opportunities for risk reduction through cost-benefit analysis.
