Cybersecurity Services

Prioritise risk mitigation actions and meet compliance requirements by getting a professional risk report from a “friendly hack” into your systems – carried out by certified experts.

Penetration Testing simulates real hacking techniques to identify potential cybersecurity threats. A team of certified experts carry out the project on your systems and infrastructure and then deliver a report which enables you to prioritise mitigations. There are different types of penetration test:

  • Web Application penetration testing targets your web-based systems and identifies security flaws that a hacker could find, for example as a way in to access your data.
  • External Infrastructure penetration testing targets your network infrastructure from the outside, just as a real hacker could. 
  • Internal Infrastructure penetration testing simulates an attack from within the organisation, including from malicious or resentful employees.
  • PCI-DSS penetration testing helps you meet the requirements of PCI-DSS compliance. Networks are assessed to check for weaknesses that could put your clients’ credit card details at risk.

Other types of penetration testing are available as well, including for example wi-fi penetration testing and social engineering penetration testing.

Understand your risk profile from an independent examination of your internal IT Security controls and present system vulnerabilities.

A Security Audit examines the controls with the IT infrastructure and assesses compliance. It also substantiates the risks of controls not being met.

Benefits range from server configuration, system productivity and asset listing through to determining causes of frequent problems, ensuring backups are adequate and establishing risks to information. Controls are assessed in order to mitigate risks.

The Audit supports systems continuity and management/maintenance, as well as security.

Cyber Essentials is a government backed scheme that helps protect organisations against the most common cyber attacks. Cyber attacks can come in many shapes and sizes but most of the time they are very basic in nature and can be prevented in simple ways. 

Cyber Essentials can reassure customers that you’re working on protecting your IT, it means you have a clear picture of your cyber security level and can attract new business with the promise you have some cyber security measures.

Simulate an email phishing attack on your organisation and receive training for employees on how to reduce the risks of getting infected.

A phishing attack exploits employees, to start with, as opposed to systems. Fraudulent emails can trick employees into giving up credentials or other privileged information, or into taking actions that will download malicious software which can start an attack on the laptop and across then into the corporate network.

A Phishing Simulation service will prepare employees to better withstand and avoid phishing attacks. The service simulates a real-world attack on the organisation and trains employees in how to spot malicious emails and deal with this type of situation. 

The service can include advising on filters and controls to block unwanted emails.

When ordered as a managed service, as opposed to a one-off project, the service includes 24/7 support for employees who wish to send suspicious emails for checking by experts.
