In a world where collaboration with business partners and close contact with customers are key to achieving high performance, EBPO’s Security service line helps clients secure their data, protect identities and build trusted relationships with all stakeholders.

Services

EBPO’s Security service line leverages more than 10 years experience as a trusted security advisor to leading companies. Our security professionals design, build and operate both custom and prebuilt security systems that enable high performance.

High-performance businesses and governments know that secure data and protected identities are the foundations for longstanding, mutually beneficial relationships with customers, business partners and citizens.

Organizations in pursuit of high performance must have IT systems that are flexible and adaptable to enable rapid response to changing market conditions—but which are nevertheless secure. This is one of the most delicate balancing acts that CIO’s have to perform. Incorrect emphasis will either render the company vulnerable, or unable to move with the necessary agility to compete in the competitive global marketplace.

Many leading CIO’s realize that getting this balance right requires the help of a specialist team. EBPO’s Security service line leverages its decades of experience in security, deep industry knowledge and business-process know-how to create pragmatic, flexible approaches to information and network security.

Speciality of EBPO

EBPO is one of the world’s largest independent sources of technology solutions and offers the largest global security implementation workforce. EBPO’s groundbreaking High Performance Business research helps ensure that we see beyond technology to the business benefits that security must enable.

EBPO’s research into what makes for high-performance business is supplemented by more than 10 years’ experience with hundreds of security clients around the globe—and experience in making almost every conceivable technology solution deliver projected business benefits. We carefully assess what our clients need, and then craft the appropriate security solution.

At its simplest, we believe effective information security is about doing five things especially well:

• Assessing and managing security risks and vulnerabilities: Analyzing threats, putting in place the right strategy, governance and organization capabilities to manage risks and comply with regulations.
• Securing the technology and network infrastructure: Providing endpoint security and integrity, traffic management and configuration management.
• Business continuity and disaster recovery: Ensuring not only rapid recovery from technology failure and/or security breaches, but also proactive prevention of failures in the first place.
• Managing identity and access: Providing safe: efficient access to critical applications and resources. Includes user administration, provisioning and access permissions, as well as better user awareness, policies and training.
• Securing enterprise applications: An end-to-end capability to provide application-level security—an approach encompassing technology, controls, processes and management.
