Website Security Audit

Think of all the sensitive information websites process on a daily basis. From customer data to payment details. If our website isn’t secure, not only do we risk financial losses, but our reputation could be irreparably damaged.

When I talk about a security audit, I’m referring to a comprehensive evaluation of your website to identify any vulnerabilities that hackers could exploit. This isn’t just a quick scan. I use state-of-the-art tools and methods to dive deep into the website’s architecture, code, and configurations. Once the scan is complete, I manually review the findings, ensuring that no stone is left unturned.

The result? A detailed report highlighting potential risks and providing actionable recommendations to fortify your website.

What I look for during cyber security audits

Network Scans

I delve into the layers of your network, identifying any open ports, misconfigurations, or other vulnerabilities that could serve as entry points for malicious actors. My goal is to ensure that the outer layers of your digital realm are as robust and impervious as possible.

Website Scans

Using advanced scanning tools, I meticulously analyze every webpage, script, and plugin. This isn’t just about looking for known vulnerabilities; it’s about anticipating potential weaknesses that could be exploited in the future.

Common Attack Vector Penetration Testing

By simulating the most common attack vectors, I put your website’s defenses to the test. Whether it’s SQL injection, cross-site scripting, or other prevalent threats, I approach your site as if I were an attacker, aiming to uncover any possible avenue of intrusion. But worry not, this is a controlled environment, and the goal is purely to fortify, not to exploit.

Findings Report & Consultation

Uncovering vulnerabilities is only half the battle; understanding them and knowing how to address them is where the true value lies. After my thorough analysis, I provide a detailed findings report that not only pinpoints the issues but offers actionable solutions. But I don’t just hand over a document and disappear. I sit down with you, ensuring you fully grasp the implications of each finding and the recommended remediation steps. Together, we chart a path forward to a more secure digital future for your brand.
