Information Security Risk Assessments

QAI MEA's information security risk assessment services are the at the forefront of the discipline.  As a transition partner with the Carnegie Mellon University Software Engineering Institute we have access to the cutting edge methodologies being developed by the top experts in the field of information security risk management.  The Operationally Critical Threat, Asset, and Vulnerability Evaluation (OCTAVESM) Methodology is used by QAI MEA to help your organization assess its information security risk.  The OCTAVE Methodology enables QAI MEA to sort through the complex web of organizational and technological issues to understand and address its information security risks.  OCTAVE defines an approach to information security risk evaluations that is comprehensive, systematic, context driven, and self-directed. 

Using the OCTAVE Methodology QAI MEA will take a phased approach to assessing your organization's information security risk.  We will work with you and your staff to focus on the critical assets of your organization that directly support your organization's mission.  Once we have focused the assets we will perform a threat assessment and develop a mitigation plan.  Information security risk assessments must be performed periodically and mitigation plans must be carried through implementation through effective project management.  QAI MEA offers training for you and your staff in Information Security Risk Management.
