Innisfil - Cybersecurity Strategy
Read about our work developing a cybersecurity strategy with the Town of Innisfil.
Cyber threats are on the rise, as the sophistication of attackers evolves. Municipalities have unquestionably become a target and many municipalities in Canada have been severely affected by cyberattacks in recent years.
In addition, the IT landscape in municipalities is changing, with more cloud computing, a more mobile workforce, and more resident and business engagements through online and social media channels.
Our consultants have extensive experience in the municipal space in preparing and developing
Cybersecurity Multi-Year Programs
Cybersecurity Maturity Assessments
Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery Plans
We have been helping municipalities in this space thoroughly assessing, mitigating cybersecurity risks and creating cyber resilience.
We recently worked with the Town of Innisfil to help them assess their cybersecurity posture and develop a strategy and plan to improve it.
We took a holistic approach by conducting a holistic review which looked at all facets important to IT security. The cybersecurity maturity of the Town was assessed against the NIST Cybersecurity Framework 1.1.
Using this baseline, a formal security program and strategy was developed for the Town containing a set of recommended initiatives that would initially upgrade the security posture of the Town, and then provide a set of ongoing tasks to facilitate continuous improvement.
