ISS France trusts Phinasoft to make their Cyber-Risk Analyses Management easier. We asked Stéphane Gomez about his experience with our services.
Can you describe your context and in particular what led you to look for a software to manage Risk Analyses?
In order to raise the maturity level of our Security, Risk Management and Documentation, we engaged in the following projects:
- Security by Design
- Enriched documentation on GDPR, data, applications and third parties
- ISO27001 compliance
A major issue was being able to cope with the continuous flow of new projects to secure. And we had very limited time for that. We then needed some simple and collaborative tools giving as much autonomy as possible to the projects’ teams.
What wasn’t right with your current solutions at the time?
Broadly two things: their inadequacy with the quantity of Security Assessments and with a limited Cyber-Risk Management culture in the firm. To conduct our Security Assessments, we started to use excel sheets that showed several drawbacks on the following needs:- Large scale use,
- Change Management over time on a given perimeter,
- Flexibility and User Experience,
- Ability to use different methodologies according to our needs.
