Security Audit
Second Party Audits
are commonly used where an organization has to assure itself of
the ability of a potential or existing supplier or sub-contractor
to meet the requirements of Information Security. Today there is a
tendency for organizations to outsource more and more of their
business processes. Therefore Second Party Audits are becoming
increasingly important as part of the process for making the
initial selection of reliable vendors, and then for monitoring
their ongoing performance.
With a thorough
understanding of the Information Security basics, CyberQ auditors
need minimal guidance to understand the client's security needs
during such second party audits. At the same time, having hands-on
management experience, they are able to strike the right balance
between security needs and other business requirements.
