Risk Assessments

Uncover security gaps before attackers find them and take control.

Security Gaps Don’t Fix Themselves

Most cyberattacks do not begin with overwhelming force. They begin with small, overlooked vulnerabilities that allow access to your systems. Our risk assessments identify weaknesses across your network, systems, and policies before they are exploited. We provide clear, actionable insights that help you prioritize fixes and reduce exposure.

Whether you need to qualify for cyber insurance, strengthen internal controls, or prepare for expansion, our assessments give you a clear view of where your risks are. We help you turn uncertainty into action by showing exactly what needs to be secured and why it matters.

Clarity That Strengthens Your Security

  • Identify weak points before attackers exploit them

  • Validate your existing defenses with real-world testing

  • Meet requirements for HIPAA, PCI, and cyber insurance

  • Get prioritized action steps instead of vague reports

  • Protect internal systems and public-facing infrastructure

  • Gain visibility into how threats could spread

  • Build a stronger foundation for long-term security planning

How We Identify And Reduce Risk

We conduct in-depth security assessments that combine scanning, testing, and expert analysis. Our process is designed to expose real vulnerabilities, not just surface-level issues, and help you take meaningful action.

Layered Testing

We combine automated tools with manual techniques to identify vulnerabilities in both internal and external systems. This approach helps reveal configuration flaws, outdated software, and gaps in your environment.

Compliance Alignment

Every assessment is structured to align with your industry’s regulations and standards. We help you prepare for audits, meet legal requirements, and maintain ongoing compliance across HIPAA, PCI, and FTC safeguard frameworks.

Actionable Reporting

Our reports are clear, prioritized, and free of confusing technical jargon. Each finding includes severity ratings and step-by-step remediation guidance so your team knows exactly what to do next.

Remediation Support

We help implement recommended fixes, resolve weaknesses, and verify improvements through follow-up testing. Our team stays involved until you are confident that vulnerabilities are closed and your risk is reduced.

Are You At Risk?

Most networks accumulate vulnerabilities over time without anyone noticing. As systems change and staff evolves, it becomes harder to keep track of what’s exposed and what no longer meets security standards. You may have unknown entry points, outdated software, or misconfigured settings that leave you open to attack without triggering alerts.

Risk assessments are not just for compliance. They give you a clear view of what is really going on inside your environment. Whether you're preparing for an audit, tightening security, or updating cyber insurance, a professional assessment can help you uncover problems before they cause damage.

We Can Help

Why You Should Choose Us. We don’t just run tools and hand you a confusing report. Our risk assessments are conducted by experienced professionals who explain exactly what we find, why it matters, and how to fix it. You get more than data. You get clarity and a plan that moves you toward real security improvement.

From internal scans to full-scale penetration testing, our team adapts every engagement to your specific environment and compliance needs. We deliver fast results, actionable insights, and hands-on guidance to help you close gaps and reduce risk with confidence, day in and day out.

Internal Vulnerability Scanning

Find Security Gaps Inside Your Network

Internal scans identify vulnerabilities within your firewall that attackers or malicious insiders could exploit. We look for unpatched systems, poor configurations, and outdated software that might be putting your business at risk. These scans help ensure your internal environment is secure and aligned with your company’s access policies and compliance goals.

We help you maintain a secure internal network by detecting weak points that could be exploited from within your organization or by unauthorized users who bypass external defenses.

  • Outdated software and operating systems are flagged for patching.

  • Misconfigured devices and systems are identified for correction.

  • Scans are scheduled regularly to maintain security visibility over time.

External Vulnerability Scanning

Stop Threats Before They Reach Your Network

External scans simulate how attackers view your business from the outside. We assess your public-facing systems, firewalls, and services for exploitable vulnerabilities that could give outsiders access. This helps reduce the risk of intrusion, reputation damage, or data theft.

Our external assessments show what your network looks like from the outside and identify vulnerabilities that should be addressed before attackers attempt to take advantage of them.

  • Open ports and exposed services are identified for closure or control.

  • Firewall rules and public IPs are scanned for common vulnerabilities.

  • Reports include severity rankings and remediation priorities.

Pen Testing

Real-World Testing Of Your Security Defenses

Penetration testing goes beyond scanning by actively testing how your systems hold up against attack. We attempt to exploit weaknesses, elevate privileges, and gain access just like a real attacker would. This approach shows how far a breach could go and what damage it could cause to your business.

We replicate real-world attack scenarios to help you understand which vulnerabilities matter most, how attackers could move through your environment, and what steps are needed to strengthen your defenses.

  • Common attack paths are mapped and tested to reveal weak spots.

  • Privilege escalation and lateral movement are attempted under controlled conditions.

  • A detailed report explains what was accessed and how to close the gaps.

Why Businesses Count On Our Risk Assessments

Risk assessments are only valuable when they lead to action. We focus on delivering clear, prioritized insights that help businesses take control of their security. Our team combines deep technical expertise with plain-language reporting to make complex threats understandable, actionable, and fixable without confusion or delay anywhere.

  • Clear Reporting

We turn technical findings into language your team can understand. Each report explains risk levels, impact, and recommended action steps so you can quickly prioritize and fix vulnerabilities without confusion, wasted effort, or unnecessary delays or gaps.

  • Hands-On Support

Our job isn’t finished when the scan ends. We assist with remediation, validate fixes, and re-test as needed to ensure vulnerabilities are properly addressed and your systems are fully secured moving forward successfully and consistently.

  • Real Testing

We use tactics real attackers rely on. Our testing shows how far threats can spread inside your network and what systems would be affected if those vulnerabilities remain unpatched, exposed, or actively targeted repeatedly by attackers.

  • Proven Experience

We work with regulated, high-risk, and fast-growing businesses that face evolving threats. Our background allows us to guide you from assessment through resolution with practical advice, proven methods, and reliable industry-aligned security execution and guidance.

FAQs About Our Risk Assessments

How often should a business perform a risk assessment?

Most businesses should perform a full risk assessment annually, with additional assessments after major changes like system upgrades, office moves, or new regulatory requirements. High-risk industries may require more frequent testing.

What’s the difference between a vulnerability scan and a pen test?

A vulnerability scan looks for known weaknesses using automated tools. A pen test goes further by simulating real-world attacks to exploit those vulnerabilities and test how far an attacker could go.

Will a risk assessment disrupt daily operations?

No. Most of our scanning and testing can be performed without interrupting normal operations. We schedule activities during low-impact times and coordinate closely with your team throughout the process.

How do I know if my business needs a risk assessment?

If you store sensitive data, manage a network, or need to meet compliance standards, you need one. Even small businesses can have significant vulnerabilities they are unaware of until tested.

Do your assessments meet compliance standards?

Yes. Our assessments are aligned with regulatory frameworks like HIPAA, PCI, and FTC safeguards. We provide the documentation, reporting, and testing required to support audit readiness and demonstrate due diligence.
