A Path to Success with the TouchstoneISP Service
Companies today are receiving more and more inquiries from potential customers about their cybersecurity policies. This is becoming extremely common nowadays given the increasing number of cyberattacks each year. Cybersecurity policies and company security are now front of mind for customers. Potential customers want to know specific details of a company’s cybersecurity program and policies as a prerequisite for hiring them. Some of these requests involve asking for “Shared Assessments” questionnaires with very detailed questions about the cybersecurity measures, policies, and procedures, at a company.
Many businesses have reached out to Touchstone Security for assistance with these complex security questionnaires. Touchstone has enabled many companies to set up a complete Information Security Program (ISP) custom-tailored to their needs and crafted with the requests set forth by potential customers in mind. Thanks to this service, our clients are now able to confidently inform each potential customer that they possess a top-tier cybersecurity program managed by a team of highly trained field experts. They no longer need to deal with things like Shared Assessment questionnaires, nor do they need to worry about any ongoing management of their cybersecurity.
This is made possible through the TouchstoneISP Service. After several collaborative strategy sessions with each client, Touchstone builds a comprehensive cybersecurity platform. This eases companies’ concerns over cybersecurity and compliance requirements. Businesses are able to assure their customers that they have a holistic set of cybersecurity policies and procedures in place to safeguard their data. Additionally, they can rest easy knowing that their cybersecurity platform is designed to meet compliance requirements.
But the relationship doesn’t end there, because cybersecurity by nature is not a single-step process. Touchstone performs numerous and continuous security assessments that enable our clients to clearly see how their data is stored and secured. Through communication with key stakeholders at the companies we work with, we establish full Information Security Programs. These programs provide a detailed manual encompassing a range of cybersecurity tools including best cybersecurity practices, policies, procedures, and plans designed to protect against potential attacks and respond to incidents if they do occur.
Our TouchstoneISP Service provides an invaluable cybersecurity toolkit to our clients. Our clients can relax knowing that their cybersecurity needs are being fully satisfied by qualified professionals. Equally important, our clients’ customers can now feel safe knowing their information is being handled correctly and according to the proper cybersecurity frameworks and regulations. This helps our clients build trust with potential clients and enables them to provide detailed documentation illustrating their top-tier cybersecurity platform.
Recently, our TouchstoneISP Service was implemented for a new manufacturing client. The initial phase of the project took 2 weeks to carry out, weeks earlier than the client expected. Upon entering phase 2 of the engagement, Touchstone began to pinpoint and address weaknesses in the company’s data security and implement additional best practices for managing their entire IT infrastructure. Over the course of this process, our client was put under time-sensitive pressure by a potential Fortune 100 customer. The potential customer wanted them to deliver a detailed description of their Information Security Program.
Touchstone Security – Your Cybersecurity Partner
Communication, collaboration, and trust were key ingredients throughout this process. We want to establish trust and open communication with any company we work with. With our recent engagement, communication was both consistent and fast – speeding up the process and documentation. All parties involved were in communication with Touchstone including the client’s MSP. Touchstone understands how to work with the technologies and partners needed in order to carry out a successful cybersecurity engagement. This knowledge and commitment to building trust and long-term client relationships set us apart from many other cybersecurity firms who may understand the security process but not how to leverage the various technologies around the process to work in tandem with security.
Touchstone also helped manage the price of meeting critical cybersecurity frameworks. After a few hours of collaboratively strategizing with the client, Touchstone was able to determine the correct cybersecurity framework to best meet the client’s needs. Having a team of professionals who can identify the most cost-effective way to ensure your cybersecurity policies align with best practices according to industry standards saves you money and headaches in the long-term. Implementing a comprehensive cybersecurity posture is a long-term investment in the future of any company in the 21st century.
This client leveraged the TouchstoneISP Service to perform a comprehensive compliance evaluation, craft a complete set of cybersecurity policies and procedures, cost-effectively achieve their cybersecurity objectives and meet critical frameworks, and mitigate their risk of experiencing a cyberattack. As we continue to support them, we remain committed to assisting them with client questions and work tirelessly to ensure they meet all the necessary cybersecurity requirements for their business. The careful consideration and dedication we demonstrated through this engagement is the same high level of service we provide to all of our valued clients.
