Security and Disaster Recovery
 

System Security
Security is a continual, ongoing and complex process that requires in-depth knowledge of business, financial and technical systems.  All facets of these areas must be considered when performing a System Security Evaluation.   

The services we offer include:  

  • Review of Policies and Procedures – Policies and procedures are reviewed to ensure critical security concerns are addressed and are promulgated to the user community.
  • Network Perimeter Security Analysis – A Security analysis of firewalls, routers, e-mail gateways, anti-virus protection, and other critical components responsible for information exchange between the company’s LAN/WAN and the Internet is performed.
  • Internal Network Security Analysis – A security analysis of internal applications and systems is performed.  Internal security is a crucial yet often overlooked component that, when breached, can significantly impact an organization.
  • Intrusion Detection – Existing Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are analyzed to ensure the organization is protected from improper entry and attacks on the network.  Recommendations can be provided if an IDS is not effective.
  • Incident Handling – A security breach requires a quick and organized response to regain control and mitigate the disruption to your business.  Existing Incident Handling procedures are reviewed or new procedures can be recommended. 

Disaster Recovery/Business Continuity
When systems fail, your business must be able to continue operating.  Data backups are just one aspect of a complete business continuity plan and if your business doesn’t have one you may not be fully protected.  

Asher offers services to assist your business in either analyzing and improving your existing business continuity plan or help you develop one.  All facets of disaster recovery and business continuity are covered.  Any potential risks will be identified to the client and a detailed plan will be put in place to resolve the situation.  

The services we offer include:  

  • Risk Identification – Critical business functions are reviewed and the potential risk is identified to each of these functions.
  • Impact Analysis – The impact of a potential failure on a critical business function is analyzed.  Recommendations are formulated to mitigate the impact.
  • Policy & Procedures Review – Policies and procedures are reviewed to validate their effectiveness and application.  Recommendations for revised or new policies and procedures are provided.
  • Priorities and Recovery Time Frames – Working with the customer, recovery of critical business functions are prioritized and a plan for an acceptable recovery time frame is established for each function.
