Ransomware: Four issues to prepare for

Information security
Information security is an ongoing management process. For sustained, long-term information security, all parts of the company need to contribute – from employees and the information security officer through to management.
Our experts can support you with:
Status analysis of your information security
Security risk analyses to determine level of threats and required protection, as well as a risk-oriented package of measures (in accordance with ISO 27002, BSI baseline protection etc.)
Derivation of measures to secure IT infrastructure in accordance with company-specific needs and the required level of protection
Preparing or adapting security policies
All information processes will be optimally integrated into all parts of the company and business processes.
Certification of security and proper IT processes and ISMS in accordance with ISO 27001 or industry-specific certification such as TISAX.

Managed security services
Through the digitalisation of business processes, IT environments are becoming more complex. In parallel with increasing digitalisation, the risk of cyberattacks is growing, which increases the level of security required. In this way, companies are confronted with an increasing HR workload (building and increasing know-how), infrastructure and technical measures (protection measures, log management etc.), as well as security operation processes (false positive triage and incident response).
As a partner who understands technology and business, PwC provides managed security services (MSS) to companies, helping them to improve IT security and cut costs. Our clients profit from the international, multi-industry expertise of around 350 cyber experts within the PwC network in six European countries (Austria, Belgium, Germany, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Turkey).

- Implementation of OT security hygiene assessments to determine your OT security maturity and derive an OT security roadmap

Technical security
PwC supports you during the entire lifecycle from early recognition and resolution of IT security threats to checks of applications and IT systems for vulnerabilities.
Are your systems and applications sufficiently protected against attacks (penetration testing / red team testing)?
Were threats considered and risks minimised when developing/introducing new IT systems (threat analysis / secure architecture / secure coding)?
Are your employees aware of the current threat level, and do they recognise threats early and report them via the appropriate channels (security awareness training / simulation phishing / social engineering)?
Has a simulation of a realistic attack been carried out to check your processes, staff, and protection measures (red team testing)?
We would be glad to support you to select the required services and prepare an individual proposal for you.

Business continuity management
Maintaining or restoring critical business activities after an incident is of major importance for the resilience of a company. Significant disruptions of operations caused by major incidents or outages frequently cause financial and reputational damage. With an effective business continuity management (BCM) system, you can restore important services in a timely manner and avoid lasting damage.
BCM systems need to be based on organisational strategies, structures, and priorities, but should also be sustainable and adjust to changes. Our business continuity specialists help companies to establish a reliable and efficient BCM programme. In this way, BCM becomes an integral part of your company.
