Cyber Security

Your intellectual property, proprietary information and client records are of significant value to criminals and your competitors, not to mention various activists. Unauthorized access to your network could mean that your confidential information might be stolen, altered or destroyed. Intruders cause economic loss and embarrassment for your company by hijacking corporate websites or disrupting internal email systems.

We deliver solutions to organizations by incorporating IT security into strategic business goals and objectives. Maintaining this secure environment is essential to the professional and public reputation of all corporations. This responsibility is a daunting task with today’s environment of increasing risk. 

Corporate host environments must be secure. Any possible vulnerabilities must be identified and addressed. Our security assessment and penetration test uses custom developed methodologies. With our custom tools, our Forensic IT professionals have discovered major and undocumented vulnerabilities not discovered standard commercial tools. 

Security Assessment

A Security and Vulnerability Assessment is a review of a network to identify weaknesses that could be used to disrupt or compromise the availability, confidentiality and/or integrity of your data. We assess the network architecture layout and implementation and then provide recommendations which will reduce available opportunities for compromise by amateur, criminal or state-sponsored attackers.

Penetration Test

Penetration testing is the evaluation of the inherent security features of an IT environment to assess its vulnerability to unauthorized access. Technicians make use of commercial and custom tools, including specialized software and hardware and social engineering techniques, to simulate an attack by unauthorized persons.

Social Engineering Test

Social Engineering is the gathering of confidential information from unsuspecting employees through lies, misrepresentation, pretext or guise. Information, such as passwords and user ID’s, are used to replicate the conditions of an unauthorized attack.
