Cybersecurity Risk Assessments

Protect Your Business. Strengthen Your Operations. Stay Ahead of Modern Threats.

Why Your Business Needs a Cybersecurity Risk Assessment

Cyber attacks no longer target only large companies. Today, small and mid-sized businesses, auto shops, warehouses, manufacturers, and professional offices are increasingly at risk — not because they’re high-value, but because they’re easy targets.

A single vulnerability — weak passwords, unsecured Wi-Fi, missing backups, or misconfigured Microsoft 365 — can lead to:

  • Operational downtime

  • Ransomware incidents

  • Business disruption

  • Loss of revenue

  • Reputational damage

Our Cybersecurity Risk Assessment identifies your vulnerabilities, prioritizes risks, and gives you a clear roadmap to protect your business — without technical jargon or expensive tools you don’t need.

What This Assessment Covers

Your assessment includes a comprehensive security review across four critical layers:

🔐 1. Identity & Access Security

We assess how securely your staff access business systems, including:

  • Password and credential security

  • MFA (Multi-Factor Authentication) status

  • Access permissions and role-based controls

  • Shared accounts and remote access risks

🖥️ 2. Device & Endpoint Protection

We examine the security of all computers, laptops, tablets, and shop-floor devices:

  • Antivirus/EDR protection status

  • Patch & update management

  • USB and removable media risks

  • Remote management vulnerabilities

🌐 3. Network & Wi-Fi Security

We test your network for weaknesses that criminals commonly exploit:

  • Segmentation (guest vs. office vs. equipment)

  • Firewall configuration

  • Router security

  • Wireless network isolation

  • Exposure to internet-based threats

Ideal for environments with:

  • CNC machines

  • Diagnostic tools

  • IoT/automation equipment

  • Industrial Wi-Fi

☁️ 4. Microsoft 365 / Cloud Security

Most small businesses rely on cloud email and storage — but misconfigured accounts are the #1 doorway for attackers.

We review:

  • MFA status

  • Email forwarding rules (common hacking tactic)

  • SharePoint & OneDrive permissions

  • Data retention

  • Defender configuration

  • External sharing settings

🔄 5. Backups & Incident Readiness

Your ability to recover quickly is more important than trying to block every attack.

We assess:

  • On-premise & cloud backups

  • Recovery point objectives

  • Backup isolation from ransomware

  • Incident response procedures

  • Business continuity readiness

What You Receive

At the end of the assessment, you receive a detailed, easy-to-read report including:

✔️ Your current security posture (red/yellow/green scorecard)

✔️ Critical risks identified & their business impact

✔️ Prioritized action plan — what to fix first

✔️ Recommendations matched to your budget

✔️ 30-day improvement roadmap

✔️ A follow-up consultation to explain the results

This helps you make informed decisions — without costly over-engineering.
