WWT is a global leader for the majority of F100 and government organizations, providing audit, compliance and risk management readiness assessments. Specific business units or an entire organization may be evaluated within an assessment to identify findings, gaps and a risk management roadmap. WWT provides a level of detailed analysis to create roadmaps to increase security program maturity and maximize the use of people, processes and technology to reduce risk while increasing efficiencies. <br/><br/> Organizations have different requirements, to both meet compliance and desired areas of risk management focus. For example, US DoD contractors and supporting organizations are required to be CMMC compliant, thus requiring readiness assessments using the CMMC framework published by the US DoD. Other organizations may desire to use a framework like ISO, to focus more upon business controls and operations. WWT supports a wide range of assessment including but not limited to NIST (a wide variety), ISO, CIS, and CMMC.

The goal of the AWS Well-Architected Review is to provide customers with an analysis of a specific workload deployed within their AWS environment. The analysis is done by utilizing the Well-Architected Tool supplied by AWS with consultation and examination from a Certified Well-Architected Practitioner, provided by World Wide Technology (WWT). WWT is an Advanced AWS Consulting Partner and a certified AWS Well-Architected Review partner. AWS Well-Architected Review Partner members have in-depth training on the Well-Architected Framework. By working with an approved partner such as WWT, customers can often receive funding from AWS to offset the cost of remediation in a production workload. We can help implement best practices, measure the state of workloads and make improvements where assistance is required.

Many customers do not have the insights necessary to recognize or understand inefficiencies that exist within their current data environment. These inefficiencies can pose risks and present issues when migrating to the cloud. The Rapid Data Insights (RDI) engagement identifies issues that may exist within the customer’s environment and establishes a foundation for assessing and preparing for data environment migration. By analyzing a representative sample of workloads, WWT consultants can quickly provide recommendations to overcome barriers and mitigate risks for cloud adoption.

Virtual Chief Information Security Officer (vCISO) offerings are a great way to develop and mature the security posture of your company. There are a variety of reasons that organizations seek WWT Security Consultants to assist in their environment. For large enterprises, a vCISO can help bridge the gap between an outgoing CISO and the hiring of a new one. The vCISO will be able to assist with the interview and onboarding process, while also providing knowledge transfer that would not be available otherwise. For small to medium sized business, a vCISO is able to provide guidance to security teams and executive leadership for solidifying the security program and identifying areas for improvement – without breaking the bank.

Application Dependency Mapping (ADM) is a management solution which discovers various applications running on various servers and network devices within a customer’s network infrastructure and maps the dependencies between them. It aids in discovering, mapping and building a holistic view of all the resources running in a business infrastructure and the relationships between them.

We develop a road map to help future growth, upgrades and expansion of a data center. Through a data center assessment, we help provide a clearer picture of the data center’s capacity and reliability, as well as its vulnerabilities. The assessment will provide an insightful and holistic view into their environment that they have never had before.

As the threat landscape evolves, one thing remains consistent and that is need to apply security patches to systems and devices processing or storing an organization’s data. The number of vulnerabilities organizations need to address continues to grow as technologies such as IOT expand. The problem is further amplified by most organizations leveraging multi/hybrid cloud environments in addition to traditional data centers.

During this assessment, WWT’s experts will help you obtain a risk assessment across your organizations cloud footprint to jumpstart your cloud security program. WWT will work strategically to discover all your assets and identify risky configurations, assess your resources against compliance standards (PCI, GDPR, NIST, CIS), monitor privileged users and access credentials for abnormal behavior, gain real-time network visibility to detect suspicious traffic, and uncover critical hosts that have exploitable vulnerabilities.

The primary goal of our Operational Readiness Assessment is to modernize the IT workflows and processes associated with your IT operations. Our Assessment is a well-defined practice that provides operational awareness and enables the full value realization of the investments into an organization’s IT assets. Our approach has two phases. First, we aim to understand your current IT process maturity. Second, we design IT process modernization requirements to achieve your overall goals of synthesizing IT systems through the right people, processes and technology.

With today's information management and security challenges, most would agree there is nothing more confidential and sensitive than privacy data. These challenges have no boundaries — the potential impact can be anyone, be it a company or an individual. Compounding the issue are major weaknesses publicly seen by the multitude of data breaches. This has resulted in a greater demand of stringent mandates and, the CCPA, is one example of a major response. Meeting CCPA is equally demanding and at WWT, we bring expertise to assist businesses in preparing and managing the stringent compliance requirements.

The Contact Center Strategic Platform Assessment is an in-depth consulting engagement to gauge a customer’s readiness to upgrade/enhance their contact center solution to meet their strategic and operational objectives.
