Cybersecurity & IT Risk Management

What are the risks that could stop operations?

Conners & Associates answers that question with you and your operations team to define resilience, risk and controls so that we answer the question together and understand how to address it.

Where To Focus

Risk doesn't announce itself. It accumulates.

Areas where Cybersecurity, Risk & Compliance questions arise strategically and operationally.

01

Regulatory compliance

Every organization is unique. Compliance follows from practical, well designed controls and documentation.

02

Practical compliance

Achieve compliance based on how you address the risks identified, not how a book or legislation defines it.

03

Vendor management

Not all vendors pose the same degree of risk. Classify it, and focus your reviews where they matter.

04

Cross-border disconnects

Global companies face a matrix of regulations across their operations and client locations.

05

Mergers & acquisitions

IT and risk can assist with costs, pricing and contract terms in support of your legal and M&A team.

06

Technical debt risk

Critical systems out of vendor support and personnel untrained on legacy systems magnify technical debt.

The Engagement

A working program, not a report in a binder.

Conners & Associates works inside the organization with ownership, a mandate, and an exit plan.

i.

Assess

A clear-eyed read of where the exposure actually is. Not where the org chart says it should be.

ii.

Build

The system behind risk management: ownership, process, evidence, cadence. The part that holds after the engagement ends.

iii.

Hand off

You keep a working program, not a dependency on a consultant.

// the deliverable is the system, not the slide deck

Conners & Associates publishes its thinking in public: articles today, videos to come.
