Digital Risk Management in Information Systems Security (ISS) involves identifying, assessing, and mitigating risks associated with digital assets, technologies, and data. It ensures that organizations proactively manage threats to confidentiality, integrity, and availability while aligning with business objectives and regulatory requirements.
Managed security services provide continuous monitoring, threat detection, and incident response through specialized external providers. These services help organizations prevent attacks, quickly identify breaches, and respond effectively to minimize damage and downtime.
Innovation in cybersecurity through research and development drives the creation of advanced tools and techniques to combat evolving threats. Continuous R\&D enables the development of proactive defense mechanisms, such as AI-driven threat detection and next-generation encryption technologies.
