We audit the complete set of security controls in NIST 800-53 (18 security domains, a whole week of discussions with your team) or NIST 800-171, depending on your requirements. We help government contractors comply with Supplier Performance Risk System (SPRS) before a government audit.
On top of that, we will audit your cloud environments – Azure (Entra ID), Microsoft 365, and Amazon AWS.
If you are a software development company, we will audit your Secure Software Development and your DevSecOps practices.
📃 More than a report. A detailed, step-by-step plan to secure your company in 14 security domains.
🎯 After the IT Security Audit, we generate a comprehensive, technical Information Security Program Plan for your company.
📅 The plan will be split by category and criticality, scheduling changes for each finding category by month.
⌚ Within a year, you will have completely transformed your company’s defenses.
🎁 And yes, you will also get a detailed report. But the main value of the Audit will be the Information Security Program Plan!
✔ Do you hate checklists? We do too!
💬 We turn the audit process into an interactive discussion and rather than asking you yes/no questions, we discuss each one with your team.
📚 Those discussions turn into consulting sessions, allowing for idea sharing and learning.
Our pricing is transparent – and depends only on the number of hours calculated for your audit after our meeting.
The number of hours required for your IT security audit depends on the complexity of your IT infrastructure.
Let us have a chat, tell us about your company – as soon as we agree on the audit scope, we will calculate your price based on the hours needed to complete your audit and generate an Information Security Program Plan for you.
📅 The data collection process takes two to five business days.
⚡ You will receive your Report and your Information Security Program plan one week after the audit is complete.
An IT security audit is a great place to start for your company. It will highlight many vulnerabilities in your IT infrastructure that could leave you at risk of a dangerous cyber attack.
Our IT security audit examines your IT department against 965 elements in the U.S. standard NIST 800-53 or NIST 800-171 (SPRS). We compare its security controls with those in your organization and give urgent recommendations to implement against the risks to your business. This means you can rest assured that your business is safe, allowing you to focus on other parts of the company.
We also execute information security audits for companies under UKGC’s requirements.
An IT Security audit is an audit of how resilient your information technology systems are to an attack or human error. Its scope depends on the size of your company and your objectives. A security audit might mean a quick assessment of a few systems or a comprehensive security review of your on-premise and cloud infrastructure.
We audit the controls in place (or their absence). These controls might be administrative, or in other words, the practices employed by your administrators, and they could also be technical or even physical.
Physical security controls are not necessarily related to preventing theft by an outside party. Preventing people from plugging in various unknown devices in servers and computers can also be seen as a physical security control.
Planning for the audit execution
Before conducting an IT Security Audit, we have readiness meetings with your management team and the IT administrative personnel.
These meetings help establish the reasons behind the audit and its strategic security objectives. Is regulatory compliance driving your desire to audit your IT systems? Were you a victim of a security breach? Or do you want full visibility into how prepared you are for a hacking attack?
Here is our IT Security Audit Preparation Process:
How much does a cyber security assessment cost?
I know you might hate to see this answer, but… it depends!
The cost of a cyber security assessment depends on the size of your IT infrastructure and its complexity. Generally, the price starts at $9000 (€8,544) for smaller companies with less than 10 servers or which are fully remote and with less than 50 employees and can go up to $25 000 for larger companies with multiple locations and a large amount of internal and external services to assess.
It also depends on whether you would like to test your Active Directory, AWS, GCP, Google Workspaces, Azure Entra ID, Secure Software Development practices, etc.
An IT Security Audit is a bit like a health check-up, but for your IT systems. It involves a thorough review of your organization’s technology and procedures to make sure they’re secure and not leaving you exposed to nasty cyber threats.
We specialize in helping government contractors comply with NIST 800-171 and Supplier Performance Risk System (SPRS) self-evaluations before a government audit.
If you’ve got a business with any sort of digital footprint, then you’re a candidate for an IT Security Audit. It doesn’t matter if you’re running a modest e-commerce shop or a giant corporation, keeping a tab on your cybersecurity health is crucial.
An audit is all about digging deep into your tech systems. We’ll be checking out how well you’re protected against threats, how you manage data, and whether your policies are up to date. We’ll also review how your team handles technology and whether they’re aware of the latest cyber security best practices.
Think of an IT Security Audit as your game plan. It’ll help you spot any weaknesses in your IT security before they become a problem. Plus, it’s a great way to show customers and partners that you’re serious about keeping data safe.
Absolutely! Remember, in cybersecurity, prevention is always better (and cheaper) than cure. The cost of an audit is a small price to pay compared to the potential financial loss and damage to your reputation from a data breach.
Look for a service that has a proven track record in cybersecurity. They should also have a comprehensive approach that covers your IT systems, policies, and even staff training. It’s also important that they can explain their findings in a way that you understand and can act on.
An audit is like the GPS in your cybersecurity journey. It gives you a clear picture of where you are right now, helps you identify where you want to go (better security), and the steps you need to take to get there.
For sure! Many industries have strict rules around data security. An IT Security Audit can help you keep on top of these regulations and avoid any potential fines or penalties.
Don’t panic! If we find a problem, we’ll also help you find a solution. This could involve updating your systems, revising your policies, or even arranging some cybersecurity training for your team.
Regular check-ups are best, as the world of cybersecurity is always changing. At least once a year is a good rule of thumb, but you might need more frequent audits depending on the nature of your business and the sensitivity of the data you handle.
