Security Audits

Why Security Audits Matter

Cyber threats are real, and they’re getting more sophisticated. Small and medium businesses are often targeted because they’re seen as easier targets than large enterprises. A security breach can cost thousands in recovery, damage your reputation, and disrupt your business operations. Security audits help you identify vulnerabilities before attackers do.

We provide comprehensive security assessments to identify vulnerabilities and protect your business from cyber threats. We stay one step ahead of potential attacks by finding and fixing security issues before they become problems. The goal is to make your business a harder target and reduce your risk of a security incident.

What We Assess

Vulnerability scanning identifies security weaknesses in your systems, software, and network by scanning for known vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and security issues. We prioritise findings based on risk so you know what needs attention first. We provide clear reports that explain what we found and what it means for your business.

Security policy review examines your security policies and procedures, looking at password policies, access controls, backup procedures, incident response plans, and other security-related policies. We identify gaps and recommend improvements because good policies are the foundation of good security. We help you make sure yours are effective.

Penetration testing goes beyond scanning to actively test your security by attempting to exploit vulnerabilities to see how far an attacker could get. This helps you understand your actual risk rather than just theoretical vulnerabilities. We test from both external and internal perspectives, simulating real attack scenarios.

Remediation recommendations provide clear guidance on how to fix the issues we find, prioritising recommendations based on risk and impact and explaining what needs to be done and why. We help you understand which issues are critical and need immediate attention versus what can be addressed over time.

How It Works

We start by understanding your environment and your security concerns. We discuss what you want to assess, what your biggest concerns are, and what you’re trying to protect. We tailor our audit approach to your situation, focusing on what matters most for your business.

We perform the assessment using appropriate tools and techniques. We scan systems, review configurations, test security controls, and analyse findings. We document everything we do and everything we find. We’re thorough but efficient, minimising disruption to your business operations.

We provide detailed reports that explain what we found, why it matters, and what you should do about it. We prioritise findings so you know what needs attention first. We explain technical issues in terms you can understand and are available to answer questions and discuss findings.

Why Regular Audits Help

Security isn’t a one-time thing. New vulnerabilities are discovered regularly. Systems change. Threats evolve. Regular security audits help you stay on top of security issues and maintain a strong security posture. We recommend audits at least annually, and more frequently if you have compliance requirements or higher security needs.

We’ve helped businesses identify and fix security issues before they became problems. We’ve also helped businesses recover from security incidents and improve their security to prevent future problems. The difference is usually in having proper security measures in place and maintaining them over time.
