Cyber Security Baseline – Does Your Business Hit the Mark?
What is Sweethaven’s Cyber Security Baseline?
In short, Sweethaven’s Cyber Security Baseline Audit consists of a comprehensive set of recommendations defined following a thorough assessment of your systems. Your cyber security solutions and techniques are then measured against a set of criteria, based upon the cyber security threat landscape as is it today. The Sweethaven Cyber Security Experts, will also interrogate your systems to determine any high priority and critical issues that need to be urgently addressed.

Ensuring your business has the solutions to meet this baseline should be of top priority, as, it’s the perfect platform to build and implement further additional services and solutions to your security requirements.
