Petra Mayer & Associates Consulting - Cyber Security Assessment

The main goal of this project is to plan, implement, manage, monitor and upgrade security measures for the protection of Petra Mayer & Associates Consulting's data, systems and networks. Even though, the organization is a very small business, there may be hidden security issues that need to be revealed in the use of technology, third party platforms and integration of client and contractor systems.
