Client Requirement and Business Drivers
In the early stages of our client’s rapid expansion, they recognised the importance of protecting their critical information assets. They understood that this was equally important for their own data for reasons of complying with data protection legislation, and maintaining competitive advantage; as it was for their customer’s data. Their customers, mostly large corporate enterprises, entrusted very sensitive information to our client as part of the work they undertake on their behalf.
The client had gone through a major upgrade to their infrastructure and LAN/WAN connectivity. This was undertaken by partnering with an international provider of technology based business services. The partner sensibly recommended that an independent expert security assessment was undertaken; Commissum was selected through a competitive process to undertake the first assessment.
