Sabsa will allow Bahrain businesses to assess cyber challenges holistically
MANAMA, July 19, 2022
Sysprove Consulting and the SABSA Institute are providing organisations in Bahrain the ability to effectively analyse and assess business challenges, in addition to addressing the latest cybersecurity risks and design proper architected security solutions that align with their business goals and objectives.
Organisastions will be able to define their Enterprise Security Architecture (ESA) - a vital part of the information security strategy - based on the SABSA® framework.
Sysprove Consulting is a Bahrain-based IT consultancy and an official partner of David Lynas Consulting (DLC).
A number of organisations in the Kingdom and the region have benefited from the ESA defined by Sysprove Consulting and DLC. This includes the country's leading telecom operator, where the complete security strategy was defined, enabling the organisation to have a holistic security approach, and the National Critical Infrastructure Authority in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
SABSA has since 1995 evolved to be the ‘approach of choice’ for organisations in over 50 countries and in sectors as diverse as banking and finance, nuclear power and critical national infrastructure, information services, communications technology, healthcare, insurance, manufacturing, and government.
The primary objective of SABSA is to foresee a global business world of the future, leveraging the power of digital technologies, capable of managing information risk, assurance, and security by adopting it as the framework and methodology of preference regardless of industry sector, nationality, size, or socio-economic status.
Ravi Jayasundera, CEO at Sysprove, commented: “The security challenges faced by organisations are becoming more complex and require the implementation of a robust security strategy and architecture. We want organisations from diverse sectors in Bahrain to implement a holistic framework such as SABSA to manage their enterprise security strategies. Together with the SABSA Institute, Sysprove will support organisations to spread awareness of the SABSA framework, ESA, and facilitate SABSA Training within the Kingdom.”
An official at DLC said: “Organisations today face ever-increasing complexity and ever-accelerating change in an innovation-focussed environment that renders yesterday’s policy and standards out of date. A true Architectural framework that can be applied both at enterprise scale and to deliver tomorrow’s solutions at any level, that can enable an organisation to adapt to ever-changing and inter-connected requirements, is critical to future success. The SABSA method holds the key for solving problems in complex ever-changing environments, and our partnership with Sysprove will provide organisations and professionals in the region with easier access a team of SABSA-certified professionals and instructors.” --Tradearabia News Service
