FRAMEWORK
Stay one step ahead with the Frontier Data Security & Management Framework
Developing comprehensive data security and management framework can be challenging. There are many elements to consider – corporate policy, data encryption, access privileges, intrusion detection, disaster recovery, to name just a few. Aside from perfecting the information security process, businesses now need to comply with many more regulatory requirements than ever before, such as GDPR, PCI-DSS, HIPAA, ISO 27001, MIFID2, etc. There are many individual frameworks surrounding IT security, for example, cybersecurity, data protection, ISO; each with its own dedicated model. However, these frameworks only cover these specific niche areas. There is no comprehensive all-encompassing model, covering every aspect of IT data security and management, until now.
Frontier has designed a Data Security and Management Framework providing an easy-to-follow methodology, in order to seamlessly implement the required solution. Built upon our 15-years’ consulting experience around IT infrastructure and security, we have developed a ten element data security and management framework for organisations to adopt. Based on business requirements and use cases, an organisation can use our framework to define possible solutions, manage risk, and reduce vulnerabilities.
