Operational Impact Assessments

NCC works with state and local governments to strengthen cybersecurity resilience through Operational Impact Assessments. These assessments help organizations identify their “crown jewels” — the systems, data, and services most critical to their mission — while mapping key cyber dependencies that could affect operations if compromised.
