AGS' Information Security experts can help you meet increasing regulatory and compliance requirements with our comprehensive risk management planning and support services.

Getting it Right
Information Security program planning should address four areas: Vulnerability Assessment & Testing, Policy & Procedures, Technology Deployment, and Training. Each of these areas supports the others, and together they meet emerging standards of due diligence in Information Security.



Comprehensive Information Security Planning & Management Services
We start by reviewing your communications and IT technology architecture from top to bottom - inside and out. Vulnerabilities are identified, analyzed and assessed. We then work with you to design, implement and support policies and technologies that meet your goals, budget and compliance requirements.

Our Information and Security planning and management services include:

  • Development of security architecture and framework
    Our consultants analyze your total security architecture - communications and IT systems, current policies, objectives and human resources - and provide you a comprehensive security architecture recommendation, based on industry best practices.

  • Development of security policies and programs
    Our consultants analyze your agency's security and privacy policies, standards, personnel and management processes against the needs of your organization's Internet and IT strategies.
    • Policy Controls: personnel, asset classification and control, physical security, system access controls, network and computer management, application development and maintenance, business continuity, compliance.
    • Technology Controls: Identification and authentication, access control, confidentiality, integrity, non-repudiation, security management.

  • Security Program Management Support
    Need extra hands? Our consultants can provide interim or on-going program management support either via telephone, on-site consultation or on-site management.

  • Training
    Reducing security risk is more than just having great technology, policies and procedures. Improving employee awareness is critical. AGS can train your team to correctly support and manage all elements of your new security program.

Balance Security & Accessibility
It only takes a few minutes to compromise an unprotected computer that is connected to the Internet.

The negative impact of a virus or successful cyber attack can be devastating on networks, on the information contained within systems and on the confidence of employees and customers.
