About Us
Derived from the Latin con-sciere “to act with knowledge,” Consciere (con-see-air-ay) is dedicated to helping our customers make well-reasoned information risk management decisions. Consciere was founded by well-known industry experts with many years of experience assisting clients of all sizes address real information security challenges and opportunities.
Our approach is based on the long-accepted principles of “Plan, Do, Check, Act” (with knowledge!), derived from the notion that strategic management consulting drives better downstream tactical decisions. We begin with a straightforward engagement at the senior-most levels of an organization, identifying the “what” and the “why” of your security program, resulting in a roadmap to enable risk management as a competitive advantage. In extreme cases, we offer a triage service to quickly and efficiently identify major gaps and vulnerabilities that must be addressed. Next, we perform a more thorough, standards-based assessment of performance against the roadmap to clarify and prioritize concrete action. Finally, Consciere’s in-house capabilities combined with our extensive network of industry relationships delivers the “how, who, where, and when” to execute on the plans in partnership with our customers’ full-time staff.
The information security marketplace continues to evolve, but some themes remain fundamental: information security is a business challenge, comprised of people, process, and technology vectors that must be rationalized to define a coherent value proposition. Economics and customer dynamics must also be weighed thoughtfully to arrive at practical solutions. Contact us today to leverage our decades of experience and “act with knowledge.”
