IT Security Gap Analysis is a structured process used to identify vulnerabilities and deficiencies in an organization’s cybersecurity framework. It compares the current security posture against established standards, policies, or best practices, such as NIST, ISO 27001, or industry-specific regulations. The analysis involves reviewing security policies, technologies, and processes to pinpoint areas where risks or non-compliance exist.

The outcome is a detailed report highlighting security gaps, their potential impact, and recommendations for remediation. This process helps organizations prioritize improvements, allocate resources efficiently, and reduce the likelihood of security breaches.
