A cybersecurity assessment evaluates the efficacy of your organization’s cybersecurity measures in addressing vulnerabilities. Unlike a cybersecurity audit that follows a checklist, risk assessments should be conducted with consideration for your organization’s business goals. This approach provides a broad overview of the weaknesses in your network, enabling security teams to implement appropriate controls to mitigate risks.
