About Windows Vista Update
Nnigma
Inc. was founded in 2002 as a result of the founder's
dissatisfaction with the (then) existing methodologies and
solutions for designing and implementing comprehensive ERP
security.
With over 50 years of
Information security experience, the founders thought they could
do better and set up Nnigma Inc. They acquired a web development
group a couple of years later.
As a leader in the ERP Information security and Identity
Management consulting space, Nnigma helps its clients with the
following:
application development security (for SAP,
PeopleSoft etc),
Signon, Authentication and Authorization strategies,
validating current enterprise security solutions,
clients' information Security Objectives,
policies, Guidelines, Standards, Procedures,
classification/reclassification for security
purposes,
assessment/analysis models to identify threats,
classify assets, and to rate system vulnerabilities
so that effective controls can be implemented.,
potential Compliance issues,
Analysis Models,
management best practices,
Architecture and Models,
Portal Strategies and associated security risks.

The foundation of
our work is a deep understanding of not only enterprise security
and application security but also of the complex challenges that
come from implementing even a midsized ERP application. We offer
a distinct and powerful global perspective that can only come
from working with our clients in different time zones around the
world. Our consultants work with world class tools like
Oblix COREId and
Netegrity Siteminder in
conjunction with PeopleSoft and SAP systems.
We understand the plethora of compliance issues that affect
companies as they implement ERP systems. We focus on potential
risks and threats associated with the implementation of
PeopleSoft, SAP and other ERP systems. Our consultants have
decades of ERP security experience and have seen different
permutations and combinations of security configurations.
We believe in short, discreet engagements (usually a
maximum of 3 months).
We typically we
come in to an organization at the beginning of the ERP project
and we perform an Nnigma Initial Snapshot Analysis and
Recommendation (NISAR). We meet with Management,
consulting partners and technical staff to get a rough idea of
the security landscape and management objectives for the
project. This process is designed to be as discreet as possible
and our staff work as observers. We then prepare an initial
report for the client and then disengage. This lasts
approximately one month.
If the client so desires, we come back in a few months later
(during the middle of the implementation) and we perform a mid
project review with all technical stakeholders. We call this an
Nnigma Mid Term Analysis and Recommendation (NMTAR).
Here, We compare the state of the security landscape to what it
was a few months back and make recommendations for improvements,
mid course corrections etc. In our experience, this is the most
crucial time to cement the security strategy for an ERP
implementation. This is also the time when projects start to
slip. We are able to share our industry knowledge with key
technical resources and management. After we present our
deliverable, we disengage. This also lasts for approximately one
month.
The third time we come back in is a month before the go live
date. We then work with our clients to make sure that from a
security perspective, the project looks like it's on the right
track. We call this an Nnigma Finish Line Analysis (NFLA).
We then present our clients with a comprehensive deliverable of
where they started, made changes and have ended. We also make
recommendations about potential open issues, nice to haves and
upgrade related concerns.
We have also been engaged by clients to do random independent
security analyses and pre-ERP analysis and recommendations.
We are able to
differentiate our services in three major ways.
1) We have ERP
application experience as well as enterprise security
experience.
2) All we do is security work. No generic consulting add-ons.
3) We have reasonable rates.
We have developed rigorous and reusable tools and methods for
analyzing risk and making sound recommendations for ERP
security solutions. These tools and methods help our clients to
assess the impact of strategic decisions before they are acted
upon.
Using our industry, business-process knowledge and our insight
into/access to existing and emerging technologies, we identify
new application and enterprise security trends and formulate and
implement solutions for clients under demanding time
constraints.
Our mission is to continue to provide comprehensive security
recommendations and solutions to our clients all over the world.
