Risk Assessment

Cyber risk is business risk. Vantage conducts rigorous information security risk assessments that identify your most critical assets, threats, and vulnerabilities — and translate them into a prioritised risk register.

WHY IT MATTERS

The Business Case

Without a formal risk assessment, organisations over-invest in low-impact controls and underprotect their most valuable assets. Our assessment aligns risk management to ISO 27005 and NIA requirements.

FREQUENTLY ASKED

Common Questions About Risk Assessment

Which risk methodology do you use?

Our methodology is aligned to ISO 27005 and NIA requirements, using a likelihood × impact scoring model calibrated to your defined risk appetite. We can also align to NIST RMF or OCTAVE Allegro where the client has an existing methodology preference.

Will the output integrate with our existing risk register?

Yes. The risk register is delivered in a structured format that can be loaded into the Vantage GRC platform or any common GRC tool (ServiceNow GRC, Archer, OneTrust). We avoid creating yet another standalone spreadsheet that quietly dies after the engagement.

How often should we refresh the risk assessment?

We recommend a full refresh annually with a lightweight quarterly review of the top risks. Many Qatar clients also trigger an interim refresh after major changes — a regulator update, a new business line, or a significant incident.
