This episode delves into the essential methodologies and services organizations use to assess their cybersecurity posture. We explore techniques like Enterprise Risk Assessments, Threat Analysis, Vulnerability Management and Assessment, and Penetration Testing. Learn how understanding attacker tactics and human behavior through methods like Social Engineering Assessments and Red/Blue/Purple Teaming can reveal critical weaknesses in your defenses. Discover how these assessments inform strategic planning, prioritize investments, and build a more mature and resilient security program, often guided by frameworks like the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF).
