Control Categories

Three Pillars of Security Controls

A policy without an enforcing control is just words on paper. We implement controls across all three categories.

Technical Controls

  • MFA, role-based access control, and privileged access management
  • Encryption at rest and in transit for all sensitive data
  • Firewalls, IDS/IPS, network segmentation, and VPN
  • EDR, email filtering, SIEM, and vulnerability management
  • Automated backup and tested recovery procedures

Administrative and Physical Controls

  • Security policies, risk management, and governance documentation
  • Security awareness training and simulated phishing campaigns
  • Incident response planning and vendor management
  • Physical access controls, surveillance, and environmental protections
  • Change management and personnel security procedures
CIS Controls

Prioritized Implementation Groups

We align control implementation to CIS Implementation Groups based on your organization's size and risk profile.

IMPLEMENTATION GROUP 1

Essential Cyber Hygiene

Asset inventory, software inventory, data protection, secure configuration, account management, and access control for every organization.

IMPLEMENTATION GROUP 2

Sensitive Data Protection

Email and browser protections, malware defenses, data recovery, network monitoring, and security awareness training for elevated risk.

IMPLEMENTATION GROUP 3

Advanced Threat Defense

Application security, incident response management, and penetration testing for organizations facing sophisticated threats.

PTG PROPRIETARY

39-Layer ZeroHack Stack

Our proven methodology layers controls to create defense in depth that addresses the full spectrum of modern cyber threats.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know which controls my organization needs?

The right controls depend on your industry, data types, compliance requirements, risk profile, and budget. A risk assessment and gap analysis identifies the specific controls you need. We use frameworks like CIS Controls and NIST to provide a structured, prioritized approach.

How long does it take to implement security controls?

Basic controls like MFA and endpoint protection can be deployed in days. A comprehensive controls implementation program for a mid-sized organization typically takes three to six months.

How do we measure control effectiveness?

We establish metrics and monitoring for each control to verify it is functioning as intended. This includes regular testing, vulnerability scanning, penetration testing, and continuous monitoring with reports on control status.

Can you implement controls without disrupting our operations?

Yes. We test controls in staging environments when possible, deploy during maintenance windows, and communicate clearly with affected teams throughout the process to minimize disruption.
