A New Era of Security
Cyber attacks are like natural disasters. There’s no way to prevent a storm from hitting your town, but you can certainly prepare for it……
Vulnerability Scan
Vulnerability scanning is an assessment of your possible security vulnerabilities on your internal and external network. The scan will identify vulnerabilities that a computer, communication equipment, network equipment or website may have which can be exploited by an attacker. Our vulnerability scan is an extensive manual test using the latest hacking tools, which will look for known vulnerabilities and misconfigurations on your network.
The Vulnerability scan is a one-off service where we will test your internal and external infrastructure for vulnerabilities.
Vulnerability Audit
You must understand the threats to allow you to defend against them. The key is to identify what data is being held, how the data is used and what current controls are in place around it. That is why we recommend to any business wanting to truly understand the threat, to undertake a Cyber Audit.
Whats involved?
External Penetration Test: This external test is performed to identify vulnerabilities within a website, system or application.
Internal Vulnerability Scan: Conducting an authorised internal scan across a network to understand any misconfigurations or unpatched systems that might lead to vulnerabilities.
Phishing Simulations: With 83% of UK businesses reporting phishing attacks in the last year, testing the integrity of internal users is more important than ever. Bespoke phishing campaigns are created to fully test and train users to spot malicious emails.
Dark Web Scanning: These scans identify any historic details from previous breaches that could be used by criminal against your organisation.
Prevention is better than cure. If you don’t want others to hack your system, then get an audit done asap
Penetration Testing
A penetration test is performed by an ethical hacker to try and compromise an organisation (or asset). This is done to try and identify existing security vulnerabilities for the client. A penetration test is an authorised simulated cyberattack on a computer system.
The objective of the penetration test is to simulate a real-world attack scenario to determine if a client could be compromised by a real-world cyber-criminal. Once vulnerabilities are identified, and the client is informed, they can fix the security holes.
Benefits to your business:
- Test your Cyber-defence capabilities
- Reveal vulnerabilities in computers, applications and networks
- Find holes and plug them before an attacker can get inside and wreak havoc
- Protect your organisation’s reputation
- Ensure compliance
Cyber Security Solutions
Nowadays, the most important worry for any business is the security of their corporate data. Because of the increasing number of security breaches today, data protection against unauthorised infiltration is on everyone’s mind. IT security is one of the most difficult concerns that enterprises confront, no matter how large or small. When it comes to small and medium-sized businesses, the effect of a security breach is much more severe. Cybercriminals like to target small businesses because they cannot afford to build adequate security systems. Nothing is completely safe, but SMEs may enhance the protective environment by gaining a good awareness of their external online presence, ensuring it is secure through penetration testing, and decreasing exposure through actions such as frequently upgrading security patches.
