Security Risk-Cyber ISO/NIST/IEC Overview

Security Risk-Cyber ISO/NIST/IEC is a specialized cybersecurity solution designed for compliance and risk management, integrating globally recognized frameworks such as ISO, NIST, and IEC standards. It focuses on identifying, assessing, and mitigating cybersecurity risks in IT/OT environments, with capabilities to assist in firewall configuration analysis, cloud security compliance (AWS, Azure), and network security management. One core function is evaluating firewall rule sets for non-compliance with security policies (e.g., detecting 'ANY' in source/destination fields), encrypted communication, and logging. For example, in a banking scenario, the tool would review firewall configurations to ensure they adhere to stringent NIST standards, mitigating unauthorized access risks.

Core Functions of Security Risk-Cyber ISO/NIST/IEC

  • Firewall and Network Device Risk Assessment

    Example Example

    A bank uses Security Risk-Cyber ISO/NIST/IEC to identify open ports, outdated configurations, and weak encryption rules in their firewalls. The tool highlights risky rules that use unsecured communication protocols like Telnet or FTP, providing recommendations to switch to SSH or HTTPS.

    Example Scenario

    During a routine audit, the system identified several firewall rules allowing HTTP traffic to sensitive databases. The bank updated its configurations to use HTTPS and added logging for all traffic, reducing its exposure to man-in-the-middle attacks.

  • Cloud Security Compliance Checks

    Example Example

    An e-commerce platform integrates with AWS and uses the tool to assess IAM policies, ensuring adherence to the principle of least privilege and compliance with NIST SP 800-53 guidelines for cloud environments.

    Example Scenario

    After running the compliance check, the tool identified that several Amazon S3 buckets were publicly accessible, which posed a data breach risk. The platform followed the recommendations to restrict access and enable encryption, thus meeting GDPR and AWS best practice standards.

  • Security Hardening for IT/OT Systems

    Example Example

    In an industrial control environment, the tool analyzes switches, routers, and SDN setups, recommending changes to ACLs and VLAN configurations to align with IEC 62443 standards for critical infrastructure.

    Example Scenario

    A manufacturing company had exposed its network to the internet through misconfigured router settings. The tool recommended isolation through VLAN segmentation and improved ACLs, reducing the risk of external cyberattacks.

Ideal Users for Security Risk-Cyber ISO/NIST/IEC

  • Financial Institutions

    Banks and financial institutions handle sensitive data, making them prime targets for cyberattacks. Security Risk-Cyber ISO/NIST/IEC helps these institutions assess their firewall configurations, identify misconfigurations, and ensure compliance with standards like NIST SP 800-53 and PCI DSS. The tool's ability to manage risk assessments and provide real-time firewall analysis ensures compliance and safeguards customer data.

  • Manufacturing and Critical Infrastructure

    Organizations operating in industrial control systems (ICS) and critical infrastructure face unique challenges with their OT networks. The tool supports adherence to IEC 62443 and NERC-CIP standards, assessing firewall rules and VLAN segmentation to prevent unauthorized access to critical systems. By securing network zones and ensuring proper access controls, these companies can mitigate risks of service disruptions and cyber sabotage.
