Align With Security Risk Management Best

Practices and Defence Regulator Methods

Minimise critical project security risks and establish your company as a trusted Defence Industry security partner

Defence Industry is routinely targeted for its sensitive and classified information, and according to the 2023 Insider Threat Report, 74% of all defence organisations are at least moderately vulnerable to insider threats and data leaks.

Broader risk exposure requires a holistic approach to identification, mitigation, monitoring and management of security threats and risks. SECTARA’s approach is purpose designed for Defence Industry and can be applied to any scope within the enterprise and supply chain.

According to the 2023 Insider Threat Report, 74% of all defence organisations are at least moderately vulnerable to insider threats and data leaks.

In this backdrop of increased incidents of security breaches and information leaks globally and with the matter of national security at stake, organisations operating in the defence industry need to be diligent about how they identify, monitor, and manage systemic risks they’re exposed to.

Align With Regulator Risk Management Methodologies

Analyse context, assets, threats, controls/vulnerabilities and risks, and recommend mitigating measures, all in a step-by-step assessment process.
Take a project-wide security approach to Defence engagements, use data libraries to speed the process, and monitor and review assessments in real-time.
Compel supply chain vendors to conduct assessments using your company’s criteria, not theirs. Collaborate online to assure assessment quality.

Improve threat intelligence and incident response

Leverage a suite of advanced real-time threat monitoring and analytics tools to build a global threat intelligence library and enable proactive risk mitigation.
Conduct comprehensive vulnerability assessments on defence systems, infrastructure, and supply chains to identify potential security threats.
Implement effective defence strategies based on threat intelligence to improve the security posture and combat ongoing and emerging security incidents.

Minimise Insider Threats and Risks

Assess risks associated with privileged access and role-based permissions, and assign treatments to mitigate them.
Identify and assess fraud, espionage, sabotage and other insider threat vectors, and coordinate project/enterprise-wide strategies to address them.
Achieve enormous productivity gains through documenting and applying threat actor and act, asset and control library content to each new assessment.

Minimise the risk of insider threats

Identity and monitor suspicious activities by employees such as abnormal data transfers and unusual system usage patterns by deploying behaviour analytics.
Design training programs for defence personnel using insights obtained through a comprehensive assessment of the latest security threats.

Improve the resilience of the defence supply chain
