Training

Secure Coding

Through their expertise and knowledge of databases, networks, hardware, firewalls and encryption, IT security consultants help in preventing attacks. They assess the existing infrastructures and systems for weaknesses and then develop and put in place security solutions to prevent unauthorized access, data modification or data loss. They prevent the theft of financial and personal information, keep computer systems running smoothly, and block hackers from accessing and divulging proprietary data.

Security Awareness

Security awareness is the knowledge and attitude that members of an organization possess regarding the protection of the physical, and especially informational, assets of that organization. Many organizations require formal security awareness training for all workers when they join the organization and periodically thereafter, usually annually.

Security Design

Therefore, it would be prudent to support the assets of the institution (information, physical, and personal) by trying to stop that from happening. Awareness of the risks and available safeguards is the first line of defence for the security of information systems and networks.

As 366 Security & Compliance, we provide Security Awareness training for your organization to achieve a long term shift in the attitude of employees towards security, whilst promoting a cultural and behavioural change within an organisation.

Secure Coding

As the security community becomes more cognizant of common hacking and cyber-attack strategies, it builds appropriate security measures into newer platforms and devices.

IT professionals understand that each type of device technology and operating system has its own vulnerabilities to a range of security issues, including cyber-attacks and hacking. With that in mind, the principle of secure coding helps software engineers and other developers anticipate these challenges and prepare for these issues in design.

The principle of secure coding is supported by various particular categorical strategies. For example, one strategy is to “validate input” to make sure that input comes from trusted sources. Another strategy is to check for buffer overflow vulnerability. In a general sense, developers look to design a secure user interface that limits the number of backdoors, loopholes and vulnerabilities that can invite cyber-attacks.

As the security community becomes more cognizant of common hacking and cyber-attack strategies, it builds appropriate security measures into newer platforms and devices. As a result, many of the traditional vulnerabilities in PC operating system environments have been engineered out of newer mobile or smartphone interfaces. However, as hackers, cyber-attackers and other “black hat” parties are also directing more attention toward mobile, this has become the new playground for secure coding and security work.

Security Awareness

Being security aware means you understand that there is the potential for some people to deliberately or accidentally steal, damage, or misuse the data that is stored within a company’s computer systems and throughout its organization.

Security Design

The security design principles are considered while designing any security mechanism for a system.

These principles are reviewed to develop a secure system which prevents the security flaws and also prevents unwanted access to the system.

Through the years several design principles have been identified as being beneficial when integrating security aspects into a system. These principles in various combinations allow for a system to achieve the previously defined aspects of security based on generic architectural models. Application of these principles will dramatically increase the likelihood your security architecture will maintain assurances of confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
