As enterprises move more and more critical assets and information into the cloud, the ability to secure and govern cloud environments becomes increasingly more important. Further complicating transformations, the driving goals of the cloud – flexibility, elasticity, and scalability – conflict with traditional approaches to data security. So the enterprise’s security vision must transform as well. Organizations that establish trust and transparency with robust cloud security measures will separate themselves from industry peers.

PwC’s approach to cloud security embeds trusted guardrails across the full stack of cloud delivery to unlock the true value of cloud – agility, innovation and scalability. We help organizations navigate their cloud transformation journey with the key elements needed to create trust, build and deliver secure platforms, and manage the risks introduced through cloud adoption.

Device security deals with protecting corporate as well personal (BYOD) devices such as workstations, laptops, mobile phones, tablets, etc. to ensure only authorized users can gain access to resources using those devices.

Operational technology systems are combinations of hardware and software that detect or cause a change to a physical device or process. Operational technology is pervasive, and expanding as firms continue to digitally transform and depend on automation the information generated by these systems.

Organizations must adopt a proactive security posture in order to programmatically manage cybersecurity risk to operational systems. We offer a variety of services to enable integrated IT and operational technology security programs and reduce risk to organizations.

Identity and Access Management ensures that the right people have the right access within the organization. Strong identity and access management is a crucial part of any cybersecurity program. Many organizations begin to strengthen their Identity and Access Management programs by buying a suite of technologies, but fall short in realizing the full value. 

PwC helps organizations create a successful Identity and Access Management transformation by implementing the alignment of people, processes and technology to reduce risk and satisfy an ever-increasing number of compliance requirements. We help companies set up provisioning access to an organization’s workforce (employees and contractors) and consumers or clients. We also assist with technology and processes to enable access to high risk / privileged assets / applications in an organization.
