Cybersecurity & resilience

The importance of cybersecurity & resilience

In a world where digital technologies are increasingly intertwined with our daily lives and business activities, cybersecurity is essential. Taking the right cybersecurity measures ensures the availability, integrity and confidentiality of your business data and/or your customer data.

To avoid a failure to properly manage the dependency on IT and a (cybersecurity) incident could lead to failure of a system, supplier in the chain or an employee, it is important to ensure that:

The likelihood of cybersecurity incidents is reduced.
Potential cybersecurity incidents are detected as soon as possible.
The consequences and potential damage of cybersecurity incidents are mitigated.
Business process continuity is ensured during a disruption.
Relevant stakeholders are informed and/or involved.

IMPROVEN helps your organisation comply with (inter)national laws, regulations and standards, such as the Cyber Security Act (NIS2 Directive), DORA, ISO27001, NEN7510 or the BIO. We ensure that your business data is optimally protected against today's and tomorrow's cyber threats.

Our themes & services

The rise of modern cyber threats such as ransomware, phishing and hacking pose a serious threat to individuals and organisations. Large cyber attacks by criminal organisations, state actors or other types of attackers take place daily, with major social, political and economic consequences. Growing attack surface and IT usage within organisations creates a high dependence on a reliable, robust and continuously available IT environment and proper processing of the right information about the organisation, its customers and cooperation partners.

IMPROVEN is ready to support your organisation in this regard. We translate complex cybersecurity laws, regulations and standards into operational, tactical and strategic security processes. By creating awareness, performing risk analyses and implementing appropriate control measures, we ensure that your organisation is secured against cyber threats.

A disease outbreak, lockdown, natural disaster, ransomware attack or some other unforeseeable event; currently, we live in a world that can look different for organisations and its employees from one moment to the next.
Here, it is important to be resilient and flexible in dealing with a disruption, so that service continuity is safeguarded or at least restored quickly and efficiently. For the sake of the organisation and in the interest of customers who depend on you to deliver your products and services.

IMPROVEN helps organisations identify and manage continuity risks and potential impact on service delivery. We use business continuity management best practices, such as the NEN-ISO:22301 and the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, to ensure that your organisation is prepared for any disruption.

In a world where industrial processes are increasingly dependent on advanced technologies, it is essential to protect your operational technology (OT) systems from cyber threats. Improven understands the unique challenges in organisations' complex OT environments. We improve OT security in your organisation without hindering operations and operational efficiency. The necessary OT measures ensure the security of systems and contribute to continuity at the time of a disruption.

IMPROVEN supports your organisation in identifying OT risks, managing these risks and implementing security measures in operational processes. This can effectively manage the complex challenges around OT security within your organisation.

In today's business environment, it is essential for organisations to effectively manage the risks associated with collaborating with external parties. Dependence on (IT) suppliers is growing. Whether they are suppliers, service providers or other supply chain partners, identifying and managing these risks is crucial for ensuring the continuity and security of your business operations.

Improven integrates Third Party Risk Management within your organisational strategy, enabling your organisation to reduce risk and be compliant with changing laws and regulations, allowing your organisation to grow and prosper in an increasingly complex business environment. Third Party Risk Management is a key component of DORA, NIS2 and NEN7510. With insight and control over the entire supplier chain, including sub-suppliers, you as an organisation are in control over the entire chain.
