Benchmark Security Stack
Structured around the five core functions of the NIST framework: Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, and Recover.
At Benchmark Network Solutions, we take cybersecurity seriously, implementing a robust and multi-layered approach based on the NIST Cybersecurity Framework. Our cybersecurity stack is designed to protect your business from evolving threats while ensuring compliance and operational efficiency. Here’s a detailed look at the components we use to safeguard your systems:
Identify
Objective: Understanding and managing cybersecurity risks to systems, assets, and data.
- Asset Management: We will help your business maintain an accurate inventory of IT assets, ensuring visibility into all hardware, software, and data flow.
- Risk Assessment: Regular risk assessments to identify vulnerabilities and potential impacts on your organization.
- Vulnerability Scanning: Automated scans to detect security gaps in your infrastructure, followed by a risk analysis to prioritize actions.
- Compliance Mapping: Ensure your IT infrastructure aligns with key industry standards like HIPAA, GDPR, and others relevant to your sector.
Defend
Objective: Implementing appropriate safeguards to ensure critical systems and data are secure.
- Firewall Management: Deployment and management of state-of-the-art firewalls to protect your network perimeter.
- Endpoint Security: We provide advanced antivirus, anti-malware, and encryption solutions to protect end-user devices from threats.
- Identity and Access Management (IAM): Implement multi-factor authentication (MFA) and privileged access management to control and secure user access.
- Security Awareness Training: Regular employee training on the latest phishing techniques and security best practices.
- Data Encryption: Encryption of sensitive data both at rest and in transit to safeguard against unauthorized access.
Detect
Objective: Continuously monitor and detect security events in a timely manner.
- 24/7 Monitoring and Incident Detection: Our Security Operations Center (SOC) actively monitors network traffic and systems for anomalous activity.
- Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS): IDS/IPS solutions to detect unauthorized access attempts and prevent them before they cause damage.
- SIEM (Security Information and Event Management): Collect and analyze log data from your entire infrastructure for advanced threat detection.
- Log Management: Centralized logging and analysis for quick identification of security events.
Respond
Objective: Taking action once an incident is detected to mitigate its impact.
- Incident Response Planning: Develop and maintain an incident response plan tailored to your organization’s needs, ensuring timely and coordinated actions during a breach.
- Forensics and Investigation: Post-incident analysis to identify the root cause of attacks and provide a comprehensive report.
- Threat Intelligence Integration: Incorporate real-time threat intelligence to understand emerging risks and preemptively defend against them.
- Breach Containment & Remediation: Immediate containment and resolution of incidents to minimize downtime and mitigate damage.
Recover
Objective: Quickly restore services and ensure resilience in the face of cyber incidents.
- Backup and Disaster Recovery (BDR): Implement a robust, automated backup system with offsite cloud storage to ensure quick recovery of critical data and systems.
- Business Continuity Planning: Develop strategies to maintain operations in the event of a security incident.
- Post-Incident Review: After-action reviews to learn from incidents, adjust security policies, and improve resilience.
- Testing and Drills: Regular simulation of attack scenarios to test incident response and recovery plans.
