There are many security frameworks in IT such as ISO 27001 ISMS, NIST Cybersecurity Framework, CIS Controls describing processes and security controls that provide an appropriate level of protection for organizations depending on the effectiveness of their implementation. This set of structures that provide the best practices of information security is applicable to most organizations, regardless of industry.

It is indisputable that the level of protection of an organization depends on how effectively the processes and security controls are implemented. Effectiveness is essential here, and to achieve that you need the right management tool. The organizational structure of the company is this unique management tool. Even organizations with identical business processes have different organizational structures. The organizational structure is the powerful tool for designing IT systems that support the company’s business processes.

Digifence technology is the implementation of security best practices using the organizational structures of companies in the process of designing and implementing IT systems. For example, the organization of system users and access to data or network segmentation should be based on the organizational structure of the company. This strategy allows you to design and implement flexible and scalable IT infrastructures. Any changes in the organizational structure of the company should be reflected in its network and information infrastructures.

The maximum efficiency of the IT function is achieved through the precise application of the company's organizational structure in the design and implementation stages of the IT systems. An important factor here is that even if the organizational structure of the company is not optimally designed in terms of business functions, it is still necessary to strictly follow its structure in order to achieve maximum integration of the IT function with the business processes of the organization.

The FBI Director Robert Mueller once said: “There are only two types of companies: those that have been hacked, and those that will be hacked.”

Digifence technology aims to reduce cybersecurity risks through the implementation of cyber resilient systems.
