Make sound risk management decisions

Your business faces information and privacy risks at many levels - from the risk of inappropriate disclosure of confidential customer data, the risk of non-compliance with privacy statutes, to the risk of financial loss from hacker intrusion. TELUS services enable you to develop or refine your information and privacy risk management strategy, and provide a sound business case for investments in process and technology.
Through hard, qualitative or quantitative evaluations of the risks your business faces and their probabilities and financial impacts, the Threat & Risk Assessment (TRA) provides the planning basis for making sound risk management decisions. TELUS services enable organizations to better direct their security and privacy risk management expenditures, resulting in net cost savings, improved security and privacy controls, better compliance, and lower risk to the organization.

TELUS methodology was among the first to be designed after the de facto  international code of practice for information security management, ISO 17799, which defines management controls for information and privacy risk across the full spectrum of business operations. TELUS delivers full-spectrum ISO 17799  and ISO27001/2 based threat and risk assessment across the entire enterprise, as well as activities that focus on specific ISO 17799 control areas and/or organizational units.

TELUS consultants work closely with your team, developing draft and interim findings as the engagement progresses.
