What does ATOM mean in MANAGEMENT

Active Threats Opportunity Management (ATOM) is a unified proactive approach to managing an organization's cyber security landscape. It involves the implementation of integrated security controls and processes designed to detect, respond, mitigate and manage internal and external threats and opportunities in a timely fashion.

ATOM helps organizations identify, assess, prioritize and remediate their cyber risk by utilizing real-time data from various sources to identify relevant threats and quickly apply appropriate countermeasures. Additionally, ATOM provides an adaptive strategy for threat intelligence whereby new trends and changes in the security landscape can be identified and addressed swiftly.

Implementing an ATOM framework provides organizations with greater visibility into their cybersecurity posture while helping them identify weak points they may not have been aware of before. Additionally, it reduces cyber risk by enabling faster responses to incidents as well as enhancing the ability to proactively identify potential threats before they cause damage.

The primary purpose of ATOM is to provide protection against malicious actors trying to exploit your systems such as hackers, malicious code or insider threat activity. Additionally, it also provides guidance on responding to emerging cyber-threats including targeted phishing campaigns, ransomware attacks or other targeted threats.

The time required for implementation depends largely on the complexity of your environment but typically falls within reasonable timelines depending on available resources. In many cases, clients report that their teams were able to make significant progress during the first two weeks following initial engagement with our team at SecureKey Technologies

While there are always risks associated with changes in any system or environment that cannot be fully mitigated or eliminated; when following best practice approaches such as those recommended within the industry standard NIST Cybersecurity Framework those risks can be significantly reduced

After completing initial implementations there is always some regular maintenance required if you wish for your system's defense mechanisms remain effective over time due various changes throughout its IT environment. To facilitate this process we recommend engaging third party professionals on a quarterly basis who can review & update policies & procedures in order ensure continued protection from cyberattacks.
