Incident Procedures

ZafePass mitigates NIS2 incident handling by reducing attack vectors and eliminating the risk of compromise, ensuring that security incidents are extremely rare. This leads to simpler, more efficient procedures, enabling organizations to respond quickly and effectively when needed.

1 NIS2 Policy and Procedures

IT Security Policy

Security policies defined around a digital resources in a ZafePass environment - will a) only be accessible to entitled & validated users. Zafepass guard-railed micro-perimeter sec. policies are enforced automatically.

Risk Management Policy

ZafePass will help in creating more accurate risk assessments as it will become easier to identify risks due to the lower attack-vectors and granular controls. Zafepass separate data and infrastructure, thus be immune to infrastructure vulnerabilities.

Encryption Policy

ZafePass ensure data will remain encrypted during transit and at rest. Throughout the entire communication path - from the user to the specific IT, OT or loT resource being accessed. Encryption is a vital element, transparently built into ZafePass.

Contingency Plan

ZafePass provide advanced security measures - like reduction of attack surface and simplified management. This enables org's to better prepare for and respond to potential security incidents and threats - ultimately hindering operations to halt.

Contract Update

ZafePass ensure all security requirements, and contractual obligations adhere to the security measures, data policies, and meets the org's security standards. Liabilities and repercussions for non-compliance will likely shift in the event of a breach.

Procedure for Incidents

ZafePass not only enhances the security posture of an organization but also strengthens the incident management capabilities, allowing for more effective and efficient handling of security incidents within the IT, OT or loT environment.

2 NIS2 Governance

Gap and Context Analysis

Zafepass doesn't directly deliver Gap and Context analysis - but can greatly impact this part by providing the enhanced security controls and the context-aware access as well as the alignment with regulatory requirements. It's a modern approach to digital environment security that can adapt to the evolving threat landscape and compliance needs.

Yearly Process Wheel

Zafepass guard-railed micro-perimeter based security will positively impact both the yearly SOA governance wheel by enhancing security and compliance and NIS2 governance by helping organizations meet specific cybersecurity requirements.
With other solutions - complexity is a risk. However, the implementation of Zafepass carefully managed and avoid any unnecessary complexity and ZafePass ensure that it aligns with the broader governance frameworks in place.

3 NIS2 Risk

Identify Risks

ZafePass' guard-railed micro-perimeter based security not only strengthens the environment-security but also significantly improves risk identification by adopting a proactive, dynamic, and context-aware 'comply-to-connect' approach. This helps organizations better protect their assets and data from potential threats and vulnerabilities.

Assess Risks and Prioritize Focus Areas

ZafePass impacts risk assessments and prioritizations by providing dynamic, context-aware, and identity-centric approach to resource security. Zafepass reduce the attack surface and emerging threats are efficiently mitigated due to the guard-railed micro-perimeter based security definitions can be focused on the resources that are most critical and sensitive.

Risk Reduction and Measures

ZafePass' guard-railed micro-perimeter based security helps reduce risks and improve security measures by shifting the security model from perimeter-based to resource-based. This approach reduces the attack surface, provides fine-grained access control, and dynamically adapts to changing security requirements, making it more challenging for attackers to breach the environment and making lateral movement impossible.

Assess Effectiveness

ZafePass' guard-railed micro-perimeter security provides a dynamic, context-aware, and adaptable approach to resource centric security by integrating to other security solutions - enabling organizations to correlate information, analyze security events and incidents for better and faster assessment of the effectiveness of their risk measures.

4 NIS2 Supply Chain

Audits and Policies

ZafePass indirectly helps map vendor audits and supply chain security by providing fine-grained well-defined conform access control, auditability, risk mitigation, and scalability. This approach aligns well with the principles of Zero Trust, Software Defined Perimeter, Secure Service Edge and Deperimiterization - turning Zafepass into a modern solutions mitigating the evolving threat landscape where supply chain attacks are a growing concern. Track who accessed what resources, when, and why. This audit trail is invaluable during vendor audits as you can provide evidence of compliance with access controls and policies.

Process Supervision

Using ZafePass' guard-railed micro-perimeter built-in transparent security methodology, org's can significantly enhance the security of their vendor supervision processes. Zafepass allows them to provide controlled and secure access to the entitled resources needed, reducing the risks associated with vendor access, ensuring sec. compliance and regulatory requirements.

Determine Audit

ZafePass provide a powerful approach for securing vendor access and conducting vendor audits. Using guard-railed micro-perimeter security policies that are automatically enforced - it enhances security, provides fine-grained access control, simplifies vendor management, and offers robust auditing and validation capabilities. This helps organizations ensure that vendors meet security requirements and adhere to compliance standards while minimizing the risk of security breaches.

5 NIS2 Awareness Training
