Cybersecurity architecture strategy
In mature organizations, cybersecurity is not a set of tools, but an architecture of decision-making and control across the entire organization. In a complex environment of cyber threats, technological growth, and governance requirements, the absence of a unified security architecture will lead to increased risk, complexity, unnecessary costs, and reduced effectiveness of controls.
At Diyako Secure Bow , the cybersecurity architecture strategy is designed with a risk-based, standards-based, and vendor-neutral approach to seamlessly institutionalize security across all layers of the organization.
This architecture is designed based on a combination of the following factors:
And finally, this architecture becomes an engineered, actionable roadmap for the organization.
This approach is based on the following standards and frameworks:
Security architecture layers include:
In this phase, your organization's security architecture is designed in a risk-based, vendor-independent manner, and aligned with business goals.
1. Data Gathering
• Identify critical assets
• Data classification
• Business process analysis
• Review of the IT structure
2. As-Is Assessment
• Infrastructure and network topology review
• Assess existing security controls
• Analysis of current documentation and architecture
3. Analysis of current challenges and events
• Review of past security incidents
• Identify operational weaknesses
• Analysis of actual and potential risks
4. Requirements and Requirements Analysis
• Review upstream requirements
• Extracting accurate business requirements
In this phase, risks are analyzed in an engineered manner and converted into enforceable security requirements.
1. Threat modeling and attack scenarios
• Threat analysis
• Definition of attack scenarios
2. Vulnerability Analysis
• Identifying weaknesses in different layers
3. Risk assessment
• Probability and impact analysis
• Prioritizing risks
4. Extraction of security requirements
• Converting risks into required controls
In this phase, the organization's target security architecture is designed as an engineered, executable, and scalable blueprint.
• Based on real risks and threats
• Vendor independent
• Scalable and extensible
• Aligned with business goals
• Monitorable and measurable
In this architecture, each risk is mapped to specific controls, and each control is implemented, monitored, and evaluated in one of the layers of the architecture.
This architecture is designed as a dynamic and adaptive architecture to keep pace with the organization's growth, changing threats, and future requirements.
In this phase, the architecture implementation path is designed in a staged and controllable manner.
• Prioritizing security projects
• Determine dependencies and prerequisites
• Execution schedule
• Estimating resources and costs
In this phase, it is ensured that the designed architecture is implemented accurately, standardized, and without deviations.
• Establishing oversight in the form of a governance structure and PMO
• Review of detailed drawings
• Implementation monitoring
• Control security settings
• Preventing deviation from architecture
• Current status analysis report
• Risk assessment report
• Cybersecurity architecture design (macro and detailed level)
• Security implementation roadmap
• Technical and security documentation
• List of Equipment and Solutions (LOM)
• RFP documents for bidding
• Implementation monitoring reports
