Performing a risk assessment is overwhelming. We’ll make sure it’s worth it.
Assurance
Compliance
Confidence
Identify, assess, and prioritize your organizational risk.
A risk assessment is fundamental to your organizational risk management program. Risk assessments performed by KirkpatrickPrice follow industry standard methodologies such as NIST Special Publication 800-30 or ISO 27005. Risk assessments are intended to trigger a thought process to identify vulnerabilities and risks specific to your organization as well as the various requirements you are facing. If you have the opportunity to anticipate a potential security incident and address the potential impacts, chances are you will be able to save your business from any operational or reputational loss.
Don’t waste time on an assessment that still leaves you vulnerable.
What if your risk assessment misses something critical that will surprise you later?
What if your audit partner isn’t experienced enough to guide you through the complexities of performing a risk assessment on your unique environment?
