In a world of intense competition, business-critical information must be assured and protected.
Introduction 
Information is one of the most critical assets of any organization, if not the most critical. Just like other important business assets, it adds value to an organization and consequently needs to be protected. It becomes even more important to protect it constantly as it keeps growing at a rapid pace and that also on a daily basis.

A good Information Security Management System (ISMS) protects the information and information systems from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, disruption, modification or destruction. The Information security control framework, improve the organization’s profitability by reducing both the number and the extent of information security breaches and by reducing both the direct and indirect costs (e.g. lost productivity through time lost investigating and resolving breaches and hoaxes; irrecoverable loss of data; expenses incurred in recovering and securing compromised data and systems; notification of customers and regulators; fines for breaching laws and regulations; damaged reputation leading to customer defections and brand devaluation).

The global expansions and reach of businesses have pressed the need for state of the art networks and architectures. A secure network architecture both local and wide area acts as major veins for seamless operations and survival of the business. The security of the network largely depends on various security products adequately implemented which lays a strong foundation for a safe computing environment and other best practices. Harmony’s security architecture review and design service ensure that a robust, cutting-edge and effective security is built into your network. This service concentrates on review and design of an organization’s IT architecture from a security point of view but also addressing the business needs.

The ever-increasing risk to information dependent businesses has transformed information security into more of a business practice than mere products and technologies.

Security practices can be implemented by means of appropriate policies, procedures, processes, guidelines, and standards. Harmony’s consulting services can assist the organization in implementing strong and adequate information security policies, processes and standards. This also ensures that appropriate procedures and guidelines are developed for successful implementation including the practice of these policies, processes, and standards.

The implementation of industry standards and best practices in information security facilitate the organization in streamlining the internal processes and technologies, resulting in the safeguarding of organizational assets, continuous operations, increase in the efficiency and overall business.

The Harmony Information Security (IS) Audit service ensures that the gaps and weaknesses in the ongoing processes, technical configurations and operations are well identified and acted upon in a timely manner. These audits may or may not be against any particular standard but covering various best practices and standards which are best suited for that business and organizational IT infrastructure.

Business continuity planning (BCP) is the creation and validation of a practiced logistical plan for how an organization will recover and restore partially or completely interrupted critical (urgent) functions within a predetermined time after a disaster or extended disruption. It is a strategic management process to identify potential incidents and develop effective response plans.

Good BCP plans, which are implemented successfully during a crisis, will give the company good return of investments and hence BCP can be seen as a business enabler.
We have a team of certified BCP Consultants with many years of industry experience handling the BCP implementations of various business houses from different domains.
