Cybersecurity ISO Implementation Case Study
Challenge
Enhance the client’s information security posture with special consideration to their unique and complex security requirements
Solution
ISO 27001 deployment along with TruOps GRC platform.
Result
Security measures meet ISO 27001 standards, the ability to affirmatively respond to the state of their security program and an expedited and efficient compliance process.
Summary
SDG had the opportunity to collaborate with a multinational, publicly traded organization specializing in photonics solutions.
In Depth
Challenge
Recognizing the rising number of cyber threats and regulatory changes, the client sought to enhance their information security posture. The client’s unique position as a provider of high-performance commercial lasers and 3D sensing technologies added a layer of complexity to their security requirements due to their use in a wide range of manufacturing, defense, and consumer applications.
Specific challenges to overcome:
ISO 9001/TL 9000 certified but lacking any security certifications required for customer assessments (ex. ISO 27001:2013).
DOD projects required compliance with NIST 800-171 & CMMC 2.0 Level 2 requirements.
Existing security measures lacked depth and structured processes resulting in inconsistent risk management.
Executive management understood production and manufacturing risk, but not ISO 27001 requirements.
An array of applications, systems, and owners across global operations
Solution
SDG designed a comprehensive solution to these challenges, including ISO 27001 standard deployment. The client also purchased TruOps, an SDG-integrated GRC platform.
Results
Following the deployment of ISO 27001 and integration of the TruOps GRC platform, the client’s headquarters now meet ISO 27001 standards with a global rollout underway.
In addition:
Conclusion
The project was a remarkable success, meeting and surpassing the client’s expectations. SDG not only implemented ISO 27001 at the client’s headquarters but also designed a risk-based approach for global implementation. This forward-looking approach ensures the long-term value and scalability of the solution, helping the client maintain rigorous information security standards across all its locations.
