What is a cyber security audit?
A cyber security audit is a form of IT security service that reviews your entire organisation’s current security measures and identifies any gaps that need rectifying in order to better defend your business against cyber crime.
Our team will look at the entire cyber threat landscape in comparison to your business, including investigating your network security management, systems, endpoints and software usage and reviewing your business processes, such as Disaster Recovery Plans and Business Continuity.
Why is it important to perform a cyber security audit?
Undertaking cyber security auditing is an important first task on your cyber security journey. Why? Not only does it identify weaknesses and points at which cyber criminals can penetrate your systems, but it also identifies a strategic roadmap, highlighting what cyber security solutions need to be implemented and providing you with an idea of the level of investment required.
With the evolving cyber threat landscape, it is important to regularly undertake cyber security audits to ensure your business has the right cyber security services in place and is as robust as possible. It is also beneficial to perform audits after significant business changes such as:
- Acquisitions and mergers
- Moving office premises
- On review of all internal HR policy documents
