PROACTIVE
By being proactive and identifying issues in building configuration early, your organisation could save money by avoiding costly data breaches or downtime.
ESTABLISH BASELINE SECURITY
A device configuration review can aid an organisation in establishing a baseline of secure configurations that could be replicated onto the entire estate to work towards a resilient defence-in-depth approach.
IDENTIFY UNPATCHED SOFTWARE
Organisation devices, especially end-user devices, are prone to having arbitrary software installed on them or having software left unpatched. Performing a device configuration review assessment could identify such problems before they are taken advantage of by a malicious actor.
ADOPT GOOD DEPLOYMENT PRACTICES
Deployment of devices is an important step in developing an organisation’s digital estate, yet many organisations do not have a secure deployment procedure. A device configuration review could facilitate the creation of a “Gold Build” with good security configuration, which the organisation could use to clone future builds.
