What is a Security Audit?

The Apex Security Audit provides a thorough assessment of a business’s IT infrastructure, focusing on best security practices, user policies, remote access configurations, and physical access controls. 

Our expert engineers assess vulnerabilities, identify areas for improvement, and provide actionable recommendations. This proactive approach helps businesses tighten security measures, reduce risk, and ensure a more secure environment for their data and systems.

How does a Security Audit work?

Many businesses operate with weak or outdated security configurations, leaving them vulnerable to data breaches, unauthorised access, and compliance issues.

Often, these weaknesses go unnoticed until a significant security event occurs. Businesses struggle to maintain up-todate security measures across their networks, user policies, and remote access points

The Importance of a Security Audit

Mark

Cyber threats are constantly evolving, and without regular reviews, businesses can easily fall behind on essential security measures.
 
The Apex Security Audit helps organisations stay ahead of potential risks by identifying weaknesses before they are exploited. This is crucial not only for day-to-day operations but also for businesses preparing for certifications like Cyber Essentials, where having robust security practices in place is essential.

The Outcome

At the end of the audit, the customer will receive a detailed report highlighting the current state of their IT security, along with recommendations and pricing for any necessary remedial work.
  
This will enable them to make informed decisions about improving their security posture and protecting their business from threats. The audit also provides a solid foundation for those pursuing Cyber Essentials or similar certifications.

What This Product Doesn't Do:

Doesn’t Include Remediation Work: The audit identifies 
issues and provides recommendations, but any remedial work or improvements are quoted for separately and are not included in the audit.

Not a Certification: This is not a Cyber Essentials Certification or equivalent, but it helps prepare for the process by identifying where improvements are needed.

No Real-Time Threat Mitigation: The audit is a one-time 
assessment and does not provide ongoing real-time protection or monitoring.

Doesn’t Replace Continuous Security Management: While it identifies vulnerabilities, businesses still need ongoing cybersecurity measures and monitoring to stay protected.

Doesn’t Fix Internal Security Practices: While it reviews policies, businesses need to ensure that employees follow internal security best practices, which the audit does not enforce.
