Description: Security assessment techniques are methods used to evaluate an organization’s security posture. These techniques allow for the identification of vulnerabilities, risk assessment, and determination of the effectiveness of implemented security measures. In the context of cybersecurity frameworks, these techniques are fundamental, as they emphasize the need for continuous verification and authentication of access to resources. This requires ongoing security assessments. Assessment techniques may include security audits, penetration testing, vulnerability analysis, and configuration reviews. Each of these techniques provides valuable information about system security and helps organizations strengthen their defenses against cyber threats. Implementing these techniques in various environments is especially critical, given that data and applications may be exposed to a variety of risks, from malware attacks to unauthorized access. Therefore, security assessment becomes an essential component to ensure that security policies are effectively applied and that infrastructure remains secure.
