Cybersecurity Life Cycle Philosophy
SGV operates under the Security Life Cycle Model which illustrates our philosophy for developing and maintaining various security solutions for our clients. This methodology results in the prevention of security incidents and helps strengthen the resiliency and sustainability of the infrastructure.
Policies, Procedures, and Standards - The core of an effective security program.
Audit and Assess – Organizations must know at least what they're trying to protect, from whom they're protecting it, and how they want to operate.
Design and Develop – Design and develop appropriate security solutions, plans, or policies.

Implement and Deploy – Implementation of the designs developed previously requires significant planning and testing to ensure that systems operate as expected after new security measures are in place.
Manage and Monitor – Ensure the required security levels are maintained
Educate and Train – Without the proper awareness and training, users may inadvertently do things that could compromise system security. Security is everyone's job!
