The Garrett Group: Tailor-Made Cybersecurity with Intelligence-Driven Solutions

Addressing the need for robust security systems that are on a par with today’s evolving technology and threat landscape has become all the more cumbersome for enterprises. Evaluating and opting for suitable security solutions and services from amongst the plethora of options available in the market has become a confusing affair for CIOs. Additionally, the burden of paying exorbitant amounts for many of these solutions makes companies skeptical about adopting them. As a leader in the cybersecurity and intelligence space since 2007, The Garrett Group addresses these predicaments by adopting security approaches based on their client’s specific risk profile and by providing hands-on assistance to private and federal groups within fixed budgets. The company’s leadership team holds, on an average, an individual experience of over 35 years in the intelligence and cybersecurity domains.

In addition to supporting various national defense entities, The Garrett Group has ventured into critical infrastructure, non-government, and commercial organizations. “We continually evolve our company to meet the current threat landscape and we have postured ourselves to provide top-tier support to our clients and partners by proactively reducing risk, building robust defense programs, and responding to attacks,” says Andrew Munger, CTO of The Garrett Group, who also heads Garrett Group Information Security or G2IS, the company’s division built exclusively for non-government organizations.

The Garrett Group’s goal is to demystify cybersecurity and help organizations decipher the complexities to arrive at sensible solutions. While engaging with a client, the company identifies their critical assets and strategic goals in order to plan the process of analyzing threats and security gaps that need to be filled. Through repetitive threat and vulnerability analysis processes, the company derives a tailored approach toward identifying the security risks of their clients to assist them with smart decision making.

Meanwhile, G2IS’s cybersecurity solutions are categorized into three broad portfolios—cyber-risk consulting, cyber threat intelligence, and cybersecurity training. As a consultant, the company performs various functions such as program maturity consulting, penetration testing, custom risk assessments, and compliance reviews to assess risks and build better defense-in-depth systems. On the threat intelligence side, to help their clients stay a step ahead of attacks, cyber intelligence and vulnerability alerts are generated along with cyber-risk reports pertaining to specific business divisions.
