Talal Abu Ghazaleh Information Technology International (TAG-ITI) provided its services in IT Audit & information security to National Bank of Bahrain (NBB)

The scope of work covered NBB’s IT infrastructure and will help ensure that it is in line with internationally accepted IT security practices.

Mr. Mahmoud Khalafawi, TAG-ITI’s Executive Director said that NBB has shown great confidence in our abilities to help them improve their IT security practices and infrastructure. Our work will involve independently reviewing the IT security controls they have in place and identifying areas of improvement in NBB's people, processes and technology, using techniques that anyone intending to cause malicious harm would use. This will allow us to effectively assess their IT security posture by using the latest vulnerability assessment tools and methodologies. "

He continued by saying "Such work is extremely valuable and helps IT teams to independently identify threats their infrastructure is exposed to. This in turn helps them to focus their IT expenditure on areas which are in most need and also provides higher management with valuable reporting from a reputable third party.
