Security Assessments

A security assessment gives you a clear, honest picture of where your organization stands. We evaluate your security program against industry-recognized frameworks, scoring every control on a 0–5 maturity scale so you know exactly what’s working, what’s not, and where to invest next.

Frameworks We Assess Against

  • NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) 2.0 — the gold standard for comprehensive security program evaluation, covering 106 controls across Govern, Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, and Recover
  • ISO 27001 — international information security management standard
  • PCI DSS v4.0 — payment card industry data security requirements
  • CIS Controls v8 — prioritized, prescriptive security safeguards
  • NIST SP 800-53 — federal security and privacy controls

Our Process

Every assessment follows a structured, repeatable methodology designed to surface real risks rather than check boxes:

  1. Stakeholder interviews — we sit down with the people who own and operate your systems to understand how security actually works day to day
  2. Documentation review — policies, procedures, network diagrams, and configurations are analyzed against framework requirements
  3. Technical validation — claims are verified through hands-on inspection of systems, logs, and configurations
  4. Maturity scoring — all 106 controls are scored on a 0–5 scale, from Not Implemented through Optimizing

What You Receive

  • Scored maturity assessment with per-control ratings across all six NIST CSF 2.0 functions
  • Gap analysis identifying the distance between current state and target maturity
  • SWOT analysis of your security program’s strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats
  • Risk-prioritized remediation roadmap so you tackle the most impactful items first
  • Executive report with visualizations suitable for board-level presentation

Who This Is For

Security assessments are ideal for organizations that need to meet compliance requirements, are preparing for an audit, want to benchmark against industry peers, or simply need a clear understanding of their risk posture before making security investments.

Penetration Testing

Penetration testing is authorized, controlled offensive testing that simulates real-world attacks against your systems. Rather than guessing whether your defenses would hold, we find out. Our testers use the same tools and techniques as actual threat actors, but with your permission and within a defined scope.

Types of Testing

  • Network penetration testing — external and internal network infrastructure, identifying exploitable vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and lateral movement paths
  • Web application testing — authentication, authorization, injection, business logic flaws, and API security
  • Wireless security testing — rogue access points, encryption weaknesses, and wireless network segmentation
  • Social engineering — phishing campaigns, pretexting, and physical security testing to evaluate the human layer
  • Physical security testing — badge cloning, tailgating, and facility access control assessment

Our Methodology

We follow established industry methodologies to ensure thorough, consistent, and repeatable testing:

  • OWASP Testing Guide — for web application and API assessments
  • PTES (Penetration Testing Execution Standard) — for structured engagement execution
  • NIST SP 800-115 — for technical security testing and assessment

What You Receive

  • Detailed findings report with each vulnerability documented, including attack path and business impact
  • Risk ratings — Critical, High, Medium, and Low classifications based on exploitability and impact
  • Proof-of-concept evidence — screenshots, logs, and data demonstrating each finding
  • Remediation guidance — specific, actionable steps to fix each vulnerability
  • Executive summary — a concise overview suitable for non-technical leadership

Infrastructure Hardening

Infrastructure hardening is the process of locking down your systems, networks, and cloud environments to industry benchmarks. Default configurations are designed for ease of use, not security. We close those gaps by applying proven hardening standards and verifying the results.

What We Harden

  • Servers — Windows Server and Linux systems, including file permissions, service configurations, and patch management
  • Endpoints — workstations and laptops, including disk encryption, application whitelisting, and local policy
  • Firewalls and network devices — rule review, segmentation validation, and firmware updates
  • Cloud environments — Azure, AWS, and GCP configuration review covering identity, storage, networking, and logging
  • Active Directory — GPO review, privilege escalation path analysis, Kerberos configuration, and trust relationships

Standards We Follow

  • CIS Benchmarks — consensus-based security configuration guides for over 100 technologies
  • DISA STIGs — Department of Defense Security Technical Implementation Guides
  • Vendor best practices — Microsoft, AWS, Google, and Cisco security hardening guidance

What You Receive

  • Hardening report documenting current configuration state against benchmark requirements
  • Configuration changes — implemented with your approval, documented for reproducibility
  • Verification testing — post-hardening validation to confirm changes are effective and nothing is broken
  • Ongoing monitoring recommendations — guidance on maintaining hardened state over time

IT Project Management

Technology projects that ignore security create risk. We bring security-first project management to your most critical technology initiatives, ensuring that every architecture decision, migration step, and deployment is evaluated through a security lens from day one rather than bolted on at the end.

Projects We Manage

  • Cloud migrations — on-premises to cloud, cloud to cloud, or hybrid architecture transitions with security baked into every phase
  • Infrastructure upgrades — network refreshes, server migrations, and data center consolidation with minimal risk exposure
  • Office buildouts — new location technology deployments including structured cabling, wireless, and security systems
  • M&A technology integration — merging disparate IT environments securely during mergers and acquisitions
  • Security tool deployments — SIEM, EDR, identity management, and other security platform implementations

What You Receive

  • Project plan with security requirements — milestones, timelines, and security gates integrated from the start
  • Risk assessment — identifying and mitigating project-specific security risks before they become incidents
  • Architecture review — ensuring designs meet security best practices and compliance requirements
  • Post-implementation security audit — verifying the completed project meets security objectives before handoff
