SILKROAD'S client-centric goals are to support technical & organizational objections using a capabilities-based approach combined with due diligence, technical peer-review, team-building, rapid execution and sustainable knowledge engineering. Our consultants are published, recognized experts in their subject matter domain(s) who have at least 8 years of network operational experience plus an appropriate engineering or science degree. SILKROAD'S business objectives are grounded in ethics and social responsibility in the growth of global IP internetworking. Data and consumer privacy rights, open encryption, and responsible use of the Internet are our cornerstones. Process is much more critical than technology in the operational risk management of secure systems; overly complex technology increases operational risk significantly. Requirements and operational concept-based engineering processes are critical to operational risk management.
