ACCESS MANAGEMENT

Access is the authorized physical and logical means to information assets, while management is the measure that protects the information against unauthorized access. Organizations face many challenges in finding a balance not only between access and control but between access management cost and convenience as well. While threats to the security of information assets from outsiders certainly exist, data suggests a more severe threat (i.e. unauthorized use or disclosure) exists from an organization’s employees, usually the result of factors including poor training, stress, lack of integrated hardware and software, legacy systems, or too many applications or systems requiring separate authentication.

Not only are these conditions pervasive throughout industry, but their likely occurrence could also lead to serious consequences such as criminal and civil penalties and loss of reputation and accreditation as well as federal and state dollars.

Once a secure system is in place, a company can confidently conduct business with outside users, gaining significant economies and competitive advantage. Laurus has the experience and expertise to work with clients to develop custom solutions that address a company’s specific needs while meeting budget and time constraints.

ASSESSMENT SERVICES

Assessment of strategy and risk, policies and procedures, and infrastructure with respect to specific regulatory security standards is another important tool available to companies today. Depending on the project scope and complexity, any assessment may be omitted or combined according to the organization’s life cycle position and needs. Laurus works closely with the client’s IT team to develop a solution customized to the company’s requirements. Deliverables include a GAP analysis report detailing vulnerabilities and threats to people, procedures, and infrastructure that are responsible for protecting information availability, confidentiality, and integrity.

AUTHENTICATION, AUTHORIZATION, AND AUDIT SOLUTIONS

While best practices require implementation of risk and access management standards, most organizations face challenges with the authentication, authorization, and audit technologies that facilitate protection of valuable information assets.

In addition, organizations are challenged to use many new technologies to address rules standards that their legacy systems cannot fulfill. Many emerging legacy technologies are incompatible, require integration, or are evolving too rapidly for organizations to understand. Having assessed these technologies with subsequent implementation plans, senior managers are faced with balancing business and regulatory costs.

Laurus’ solutions not only mitigate these risks but also position organizations to achieve the positive goals of the security best practices, as well as the GLBA, SOX and HIPAA privacy and security rules, while delivering greater efficiency, improved productivity, and overall reduced cost.
