Ask a useful question
Start with the concern you need to address. It might be a system exposed to the internet, too much account access or a cloud setting. The review should answer that question, not just produce another scan.

Security assessment
A security scan can leave you with a long list of warnings. We help you work out which ones need attention, which need more checks and what your team should do next.
How it works
Turn the findings into decisions
An assessment should help you decide what to fix first. You need to know why it matters and what must happen before a change can be made.
Review what the tools find
Our platform gathers information from the systems included in the review. What it can check depends on access and how those systems are set up. We review the results before treating a warning as a confirmed problem.
Choose a practical order
We look at the risk to your business and the work needed to address it. The report should explain why each action matters and what needs to happen first. Your team should not have to make those decisions from a score alone.
Technology partnerships
Technology partners you know
We help you choose and look after the technology your team uses every day.
A clearer picture of the work worth doing next
Before we start, we agree which systems to review and what access is needed. We explain anything the review cannot cover. Then we check the evidence, keeping confirmed issues separate from points that need more investigation.
A useful finding needs more than a severity score. It should show what was found, which system is affected and why it matters. It should also make clear what needs checking before anyone changes a setting or removes access.
The engagement can sit alongside your existing IT and security teams. Security consultancy provides help with specific decisions, while a security audit reviews evidence against agreed criteria. We help distinguish those needs so you commission the work that answers your question.

Your service
Know what will be assessed and what follows
Before we collect information, we agree what the review covers and what access we need. Your report will explain the findings, any gaps and the next steps to discuss.
Systems and access
We agree which systems to examine, what permissions are needed and how information will be handled. Any limits to the review are made clear.
Findings with reasons
You get the evidence behind each finding and an explanation of its likely impact. We also identify what needs to happen before work can start.
A workable next step
We discuss the findings with the people who can approve changes. We agree who should take each action and whether further checks or separate work are needed.
Before you decide
Your questions, answered
How quickly can we receive an assessment report?
The timetable depends on the systems, access and checks agreed for your review. Tools can gather information quickly, but the findings still need to be checked. We confirm a realistic timetable before work starts, rather than promise the same delivery time for every business.
Does the assessment prove that we are compliant?
No. The report gives you technical evidence from the agreed review; it is not a certificate of compliance. You may need other records, checks and an independent assessment. Findings about system settings can support that work, but they do not prove that every requirement has been met.
Can the assessment work alongside our own security team?
Yes. We can focus on the questions your team needs help with. We agree access, the systems to review and how we will discuss the findings together. Your team’s knowledge of the applications and how people use them helps us put the results in context.
Does the report include carrying out every recommendation?
No. Carrying out recommendations and checking the results are agreed separately. The report helps you decide what to do next and who needs to be involved. Some changes may be routine; others may need a supplier, budget approval or a planned project.
Your next step
Which security questions do you need answered first?
