At Symmetry Group “Security risk" refers to any threats, vulnerabilities, or exploits that could potentially affect an organization's infrastructure/networks, applications, back-end systems, endpoints, physical security systems, or data. Any organization whose business operations involve networks, computers, and application software -- in other words, virtually all organizations are at risk for vulnerabilities in these assets that can potentially be exploited, leading to unauthorized access, exposure of sensitive data, disruption of services, or failure to comply with regulatory requirements. Vulnerabilities in computing infrastructure have many sources, including software defects, improper configurations, and simple human error.
The sheer number of internal and external threats and vulnerabilities is daunting for the average size company. In addition, there is a strong trend towards exploits that are highly organized and financially motivated, upping the ante with respect to risk. Trying to keep up with these security risks is consuming a healthy percentage of the typical Information Technology “Security Budget” Symmetry Group customers make more use of key enabling technologies and services for securing their Information Technology infrastructure.
