Running a successful private business or organization usually requires proper level of information security combined with good management.
In 2004, Lars Baerentzen founded the company called Siscon. It was a response to the need for a good information security management tool on the market. A year after that a cutting edge information security management tool was created named ControlManager.
But what are the features that made ControlManager successful?
- The tool allows IT security managers to use the pre-made risk management and emergency plan templates or to create new personalized ones.
- The module based nature of the ControlManager becomes popular in the different business areas because it offers all the required information for a security manager. The tool offers a status update report that holds information about the various processes of the business. This way it is easy to keep track of the overall progress and the separate tasks.
- The experienced consultants at Siscon offer training that is set corresponding to the customer's needs and usually includes a further review of the various available modules. Additional attention is given to the areas that the client like to focus on, such as - risk assessment, IT security handbook creation (it is interesting to know that the Danish term is Sikkerhedshandbog), contingency etc.
- Another great thing about ControlManager is that users can try the product before they purchase it. The only thing required is contact information; after receiving it, Siscon can arrange a meeting and grant users with access to the ControlManager demo site.
There are a few things that business owners should focus on when implementing an information security management solution:
- Contingency plan - one of the most important things is to ensure that the organization will operate optimally in case of a disaster.
- Risk management - the assessment of the risks that the company is exposed to, based on the objectives, time limit etc.
- Awareness - it is important for business owners that everyone in the organization knows about recent changes in security policies and that the information security is up-to-date.
All these are important aspects for the successful realization of a business. When choosing Siscon and their tool ControlManager, users take advantage of the modules and the professional help that will make their work easier and their business safer.
ControlManager by Siscon is an application that will facilitate a high degree of professionalism in the information security management work. The tool is perfect when it comes to national or international standards, e.g. ISO27001(2). ControlManager can take an organisation through the implementation of such standards and document the subsequent compliance.
