Kyndryl Security Benchmarking and Systems Hardening

Scans security controls and compares the results with industry best practices to provide recommendations on product configuration settings.

Over time due to changes in benchmark standards, systems may fall behind and no longer exemplify currency with regards to modern system hardening standards. In addition, system hardening is often mistaken to be considered as a one-time task. Therefore, change management procedures are a weak link in maintaining compliance posture.


Kyndryl Security Benchmarking and Systems Hardening services help you to compare your IT infrastructure security controls with a selected scan framework (CIS Benchmarks, NIST, PCI/DSS, and so on) to enhance operational security and resilience, providing recommendations on product configuration settings and technical specifications.​​

Benefits

Improved systems hardening simplifies systems operation and reduces risk of operational issues, misconfigurations, incompatibilities, and compromise.​​

Significantly improved security

A reduced attack surface translates into a lower risk of data breaches, unauthorized access, systems hacking, and malware.

Simplified compliance and auditability

Fewer programs and user accounts coupled with a less complex environment means auditing the environment will usually be more transparent and straightforward.
