Information Technology Consulting

Huron can help your business get the right return out of its Information Technology investment. That means properly identifying risk, figuring out how to deal with it, ensuring your network is secure and is known as a safe place to do business. It also includes making sure your business processes can continue, without interruption, in addressing a broad array of possible contingencies. We pride ourselves on our thought leadership; we have centers of excellence that are designed to continuously improve the products we offer. We have subject matter experts who are assigned to various industries, and they understand the nuances and particularities of each market and stay abreast of the latest developments.

Areas of focus include:

IT Governance
We help make sure your IT department is designed to assist you in achieving your business goals by benchmarking your IT Governance processes against similar organizations. We can analyze, assess, and score your IT environment and then assist you by improving your governance structures and processes. Often this takes the form of an “Entity Level Controls Assessment” and a “Process Improvement Effort”.

IT Audit
We know the industry risks you face, evaluated both from regulator and market perspectives. We have the depth of experience to quickly customize an audit plan and execute it. We will suggest remediation that makes sense for your situation. Our aim is to help you improve, rather than just tell you about your weaknesses.

IT Security
An unsecure network is the fastest way to damage your reputation with your customers and partners. We have the experts who can assess your security vulnerabilities, whether from an outside hacker or an inside employee. We do the technical work that exposes the gaps and exposures; we translate those gaps and exposures into business risk, so that together we can decide the best solutions for your business.

Business Continuity Management
Business is interrupted for all kinds of reasons but it doesn’t always have to be. We help you come up with a plan ahead of time that will allow you to continue to serve your customers, process your revenue, and meet your obligations after a disaster or outage. We help plan for large events, like hurricanes and terrorist attacks and for more localized issues, like power outages and data center losses. What you get is a playbook for those contingencies that will allow you to continue to run your business.
