Welcome!
Gorilla Security is a company offering services to help secure your business.
We focus on combining three aspects of building a good security model in an enterprise:
- People are the most important factor in the equation. Without them, there is nothing.
- Processes and procedures, this includes all security policies, instructions and generally the way of working.
While this is very important, it's not complete till you get the other two aspects.
- Tools and systems are in our opinion a support to help the processes and procedures, to enforce some policies. They should also support the third aspect.
We believe combining the approach toward being able to influence and measure all three aspects is a critical factor towards success.
This is reflected in our offering.
If you contact us, we'll be happy to elaborate our vision with you.
