Security Gap Analysis FAQs

What is a security gap analysis and why is it important?
A security gap assessment or analysis is a systematic review of an organisation’s security standards and practices to identify deficiencies in its security posture. It involves comparing the existing framework against industry best practice, regulatory requirements and organisational goals.

The primary purpose of a gap analysis report is to highlight areas where current measures fall short, prioritise actions to address those gaps and reduce residual risk to deter future cyber-attacks.
