IT security solutions for small businesses: The CyberRiskCheck

IT security solution for small businesses: The CyberRiskCheck

IT security solutions for small businesses: The CyberRiskCheck

In today's digital world, companies of all sizes are increasingly exposed to cyber threats. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in particular are the focus of these attacks, as they often have less comprehensive security measures in place than large corporations. However, cyberattacks can have devastating effects - from financial loss to business interruption and significant reputational damage.
In response to the growing threat situation, the German Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) has developed DIN SPEC 27076 - a simplified IT standard for small and medium-sized companies.

What is the CyberRiskCheck?

Existing IT security standards are largely aimed at large companies. Until now, these standards have been too extensive for small and medium-sized companies.

The German Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) has developed a time and cost-efficient standard - DIN SPEC 27076. Based on DIN SPEC 27076, the CyberRiskCheck consulting standard is aimed at small and medium-sized companies with up to 250 employees.
The standardized CyberRiskCheck helps companies to systematically assess their IT security situation and protect themselves effectively against cyber threats.

What are the challenges facing companies in terms of IT security?

Companies face a variety of challenges when it comes to protecting themselves against the increasing threat situation:

Complex IT security
The complexity of IT security requirements often exceeds the company's expertise, which leads to increased vulnerability to cyber attacks. The complexity of modern IT infrastructures and the constantly growing threats require specialized knowledge and continuous attention, which many companies do not have.
Limited budget
Limited financial resources mean that companies have to forego comprehensive protection and instead limit themselves to basic security measures. However, these minimal measures are often not enough to effectively protect companies in today's threat landscape.
Shortage of time
Due to a lack of time, companies often do not have the necessary resources to adequately deal with IT security issues. Daily business operations often take up all of their attention, leaving little time for strategic planning and implementation of security measures. As a result, IT security is not prioritized until a serious incident occurs.

Why is the CyberRiskCheck relevant for companies?

The CyberRiskCheck offers companies a structured and standardized method for addressing the aforementioned challenges. With the CyberRiskCheck, companies have a powerful solution at their fingertips to specifically identify vulnerabilities and receive prioritized recommendations for action that are tailored to their specific needs and resources.
With the CyberRiskCheck, companies can not only take their IT security strategy to the next level, but also meet the requirements of banks and insurance companies for proof of cyber insurance and effectively protect themselves against cyber threats. The CyberRiskCheck helps companies to effectively improve their IT security strategy without the need for extensive expertise or significant financial resources.

How does the CyberRiskCheck work?

1st evaluation meeting

In the first step, an initial meeting is held to collect initial company data, which is later evaluated in the results report. In addition, the company to be advised is informed which documents (emergency plans, backup concepts, access concepts, etc.) need to be prepared. Furthermore, the responsible persons who are to participate in the consulting process are determined.

2. cyber risk check
The 27 standardized test criteria of the cyber risk check are discussed together with the IT service provider. This allows the current state of the company's security situation to be analyzed and potential weaknesses to be identified.
3. evaluation of the data
Based on the data collected during the cyber risk check, the IT service provider prepares a results report. The report contains the most important recommendations for action, which serve as guidelines for minimizing the most relevant security risks and taking IT security to the next level.
4. presentation of the results
In the final step, the IT service provider presents the results of the cyber risk check to the company being advised. The results report and the recommendations for action are explained in detail. The IT service provider is also available to answer any questions.

The cyber risk check and the results report it contains serve as the basis for further steps. For example, companies can be commissioned to implement the recommendations for action.

What is checked during the CyberRiskCheck?

During the CyberRiskCheck, a comprehensive analysis of a company's IT security situation is carried out. This holistic review gives companies a clear insight into their IT security risks and enables them to take proactive measures. The check covers a number of critical aspects:

What are the benefits of the CyberRiskCheck?

Quick start

The CyberRiskCheck offers companies a simple introduction to information security. In just four uncomplicated steps, companies receive a sound and comprehensible analysis of their current IT security situation and potential risks.

Clear test criteria

The CyberRiskCheck contains 27 requirements, which are divided into regular and important requirements. This makes it clear to the company which measures should be prioritized in order to reduce acute threats.

Customized results report

The IT service provider evaluates the collected data and creates a customized results report. This report provides the individual risk status value, a visualization of the weak points and an overview of relevant recommendations for action.

Practice-oriented recommendations

The recommendations for action are specific and sorted by urgency and contain concrete measures to eliminate identified security gaps. This gives companies the opportunity to improve potential weaknesses in information security in a targeted manner.
