What is a Business Partner Management Strategy?

The scope of our Business Partner Management Strategy includes a detailed examination of all of your company’s business processes that involve 3rd party business partners or customers. After mapping the business processes our team of trained consultants will overlay our knowledge of key security vulnerabilities, review all the external access points, and interview a sampling of current business partners. Our team will then prepare a recommended strategy and implementation plan for encouraging all of your partners to maintain a minimal level of security based on the needs of your business and the level of access needed by your business partners.

	Identify your partners/customers		Map all of the touch points to your corporate network
	Examine the access points for potential security flaws		Develop a security strategy

Business Partner Management Strategy Engagement Process & Deliverables

After an initial call, the Arsenal Security Group Senior Partner will prepare a statement of work within 2 days and we normally can begin an engagement within two weeks. During the engagement we will use interviews, questionnaires, physical tours and technical tools to develop our assessment. We usually use 1-2 consultants in tandem with our Senior Partner to complete an engagement. We will provide an executive summary, a detailed report with all of our findings and recommendations, and a final on-site presentation. Our engagement is not complete until all of our deliverables have been reviewed and accepted by our client.

We proactively conduct weekly calls with our client when engaged and meet with clients on a quarterly basis to review and understand their security posture – even when we are not actively engaged on assignment to ensure they are aware of new security risks or regulatory changes they may impact their business.
