      The digital environment offers broad opportunities for development, but at the same time it creates complex threats. By proactively managing and mitigating these risks, you make a strategic investment in your organization’s security and growth.

       

      Why is cybersecurity a priority?

      In the digital environment, cybersecurity is no longer just technical support – it is one of the organization’s core functions. To protect critical assets, it is essential to proactively identify and purposefully manage risks at all levels of the business. By embedding security principles into everyday operations, you not only reduce threats but also strengthen organizational resilience and long-term market positioning.


      Our approach


      By assessing your organization’s priorities, we identify how cybersecurity can deliver added value to your business. Our strategic and operational expertise, combined with global experience, enables us to establish the required level of security while allowing you to focus on your core activities.
      We collaborate with a global network of more than 6 300 cybersecurity experts, bringing together technical and strategic expertise across all areas of IT and information security. Our approach is built on developing and strengthening capabilities rather than imposing limitations.

      Digital resilience and operational reliability are critical factors in enabling an organization to maintain process continuity during crisis situations. With the increase in ransomware attacks and regulatory requirements, it is essential to timely assess and strengthen business continuity management capabilities.

      Effective business continuity and disaster recovery planning help an organization recover quickly from disruptions while maintaining financial stability and reputation. We design and implement tailored business continuity, crisis management, and disaster recovery plans.

      KPMG has extensive experience across various areas of technical security testing, including:

      • Web application penetration testing;
      • Mobile application penetration testing;
      • Security testing of internal and external networks and IT infrastructure.

       

      We specialize in the requirements of regulatory frameworks such as the National Cybersecurity Law (and related Cabinet of Ministers regulations), DORA (Digital Operational Resilience Act), NIS2 (Network and Information Systems Directive 2), SWIFT (Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunications), GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation), and others. We help organizations navigate complex regulatory landscapes by identifying gaps in current practices and implementing measures to ensure full compliance.

      Our CISO as an outsourced service offering provides access to high-level expertise, delivering strategic security guidance and supporting the development of information security within the organization.
      We also offer interim CISO support to ensure leadership continuity during the executive search process. In addition, we assist with the onboarding and integration of a new CISO, enabling rapid adaptation within the organization and effective leadership of security initiatives.

      The Cyber Maturity Assessment is a KPMG methodology that provides a comprehensive overview of an organization’s current information security posture. Through an in-depth analysis, you gain insight into the organization’s readiness to manage cyber threats.
      The Cyber Maturity Assessment covers nine domains, identifying priority areas for development. You will receive a detailed maturity evaluation along with a practical strategic roadmap for strengthening security capabilities.

      We support the implementation and maintenance of an Information Security Management System (ISMS) in accordance with the ISO/IEC 27001 standard. We use this standard as the foundation for a risk management approach tailored to your organization. Within the ISMS framework, we provide:

      • Gap analysis – a comparison of the current state against standard requirements;
      • Implementation support – end-to-end assistance in establishing the system;
      • Training – specialized programs to enhance employee competence and awareness.

      The human factor is a critical element of cyber incident risk. Insufficient employee engagement can significantly reduce the effectiveness of security programs. Our services help integrate security into organizational culture and employees’ daily processes, reinforcing the adoption of secure behaviors.

      Data privacy management is a critical trust factor. Our team helps ensure compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) by working with:

      • Maturity assessments – audits of current practices and action plans;
      • Governance frameworks – development of documentation and processes;
      • Automation – implementation of technological solutions to improve process efficiency;
      • Impact assessments – risk analysis for data processing and transfers to third countries.

      The evolving threat landscape and regulatory requirements demand transparent reporting on cybersecurity risk management. We help establish systems and processes for regular risk measurement by defining key performance indicators (KPIs). The results are presented in a way that provides clear support for management and board-level decision-making.

      We perform IT and information security due diligence in the context of mergers and acquisitions, divestments (spin-offs), and initial public offerings (IPOs). Our experience spans both strategic and tactical advisory as well as hands-on implementation, ensuring organizational alignment with global standards and requirements for a successful stock exchange listing.

      We provide a comprehensive approach to cloud transformation – combining architecture, engineering, IT operations, and security capabilities to ensure a secure transition and the implementation of sustainable solutions. Our team consists of highly qualified specialists with experience in implementing and maintaining leading cloud solutions.

      Our cyber incident response services help rapidly manage and mitigate the impact of attacks. We design and assess incident response protocols, providing support both locally and internationally.
      Following an incident, we conduct root cause analysis, digital forensics, and evidence collection, ensuring information preservation and supporting security transformation initiatives.

      Identity and Access Management (IAM) ensures systematic control and protection of digital identities and access rights. It is one of the fundamental elements of cybersecurity. We help define an IAM strategy, implement appropriate solutions, and establish a risk-based governance framework for managing user access rights.
