Stakeholder Communication
In security and cybersecurity, stakeholder communication refers to the deliberate and continuous process of informing all people, organizations, or entities impacted by an organization's security practices, policies, incidents, and overall cybersecurity posture of pertinent information, updates, and insights. It covers all stakeholders—internal and external—including staff members, clients, partners, investors, authorities overseeing regulations, and the broader public. Effective stakeholder communication is essential to provide a coordinated response to security problems and incidents, as well as to maintain transparency and foster confidence. Keeping stakeholders aware and involved in the organization's cybersecurity endeavors entails giving them accurate and timely information regarding security measures, risks, incidents, and mitigation efforts.
ThreatNG, the integrated solution encompassing External Attack Surface Management (EASM), Digital Risk Protection (DRP), and Security Ratings, featuring a unique "Brand Damage Susceptibility" assessment capability, plays a crucial role in bolstering Stakeholder Communication, particularly concerning an organization's external digital presence. By continuously monitoring and analyzing the digital landscape, ThreatNG enables the identification of vulnerabilities, digital risks, and potential threats that may impact brand reputation. For instance, ThreatNG detects a critical vulnerability in an e-commerce website's payment gateway, prompting immediate alerts to relevant stakeholders, including the public, via official channels, ensuring transparency and timely information dissemination. Simultaneously, ThreatNG facilitates a seamless transition of insights to existing security solutions, such as Brand Protection, whereby the system automatically triggers incident response protocols and coordinates takedown efforts for phishing sites impersonating the brand, ensuring comprehensive brand protection while minimizing delays in response actions and eliminating reliance on real-time data.
