These events have a negative impact on the company both operationally and to customers, so that it becomes a serious concern of management. Therefore, this research aims to see how companies develop infrastructure to ensure the reliability and improvement of IT security. The research methodology used is a qualitative approach by collecting data through documentation and interview studies. Based on the results of the assessment, there were 16 out of 20 controls that exceeded the threshold value. These results illustrate that the security of the IT infrastructure of PT.
