RISK TO ROADMAP
Evidence first. Action second.
01
Exposure
Locate where material risk may exist.
02
Evidence
Validate what the environment actually shows.
03
Priority
Consider business impact, likelihood, dependency and effort.
04
Action
Create 30/60/90-day remediation and a medium-term roadmap.
What you receive.
- Executive briefing written for business leadership.
- Risk register with business context and evidence references.
- Current-state or maturity view appropriate to the agreed framework.
- Prioritized 30/60/90-day actions plus medium-term roadmap.
- Dependencies, ownership and decision log.
- Optional implementation support or partner handoff.
Framework-informed, not framework theatre.
Where appropriate, assessments can reference NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0, Canadian Centre for Cyber Security baseline controls and client-specific requirements. Frameworks organize evidence and outcomes; they do not create a false certification claim.
01
Sensitive system access?
Only access necessary for the agreed assessment. Evidence can often be reviewed through controlled sessions or client-provided exports.
02
Offshore specialist access?
Not by default. Delivery location, role, access level and data exposure are disclosed and aligned to client requirements.
03
Do you certify compliance?
No. NovaShield can assess controls and support remediation evidence; formal certification or legal conclusions belong to the relevant authority.
FREQUENT QUESTIONS
Answers to common buyer questions.
What does a NovaShield cybersecurity assessment deliver?
A typical assessment can produce an executive briefing, risk register, current-state or maturity view, prioritized 30/60/90-day actions, a medium-term roadmap, dependencies and ownership decisions.
Will NovaShield need unrestricted access to our systems?
No. Access should be limited to what the agreed scope requires. Evidence can often be reviewed through controlled sessions or client-provided exports, with access requirements agreed before work starts.
Does NovaShield provide 24/7 SOC, penetration testing or digital forensics?
Not as a default promise. Those services should only be represented when a qualified named partner and defined scope are in place.
Which cybersecurity frameworks can be referenced?
Where appropriate, assessments can reference NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0, Canadian Centre for Cyber Security baseline controls and client-specific requirements without implying certification or guaranteed compliance.
