Cyber Security Risk Assessment for Increased Awareness
Understanding cyber risk can be a struggle for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) without in-house IT experts or generous IT budgets. These organizations may also be unaware of their risks and of the legal requirements that apply to them, such as the GDPR or ISO 27001, when in fact 50% of cyberattacks are targeted at SMEs.
Our experts have designed a service that provides an efficient solution for these companies seeking to minimize risk. We use the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) to assess a website’s vulnerability and issue a report that summarizes the estimated risk, raises awareness and can be used to create a cyber plan.
Your Benefits
- Heightened awareness of your company’s cybercrime risk
- Early detection of vulnerabilities before they become critical
- Expert advice on improving cyber security from a neutral third party
Our Approach
We make understanding your cyber vulnerabilities simple. Our scans are based on the CVSS, which is a widely used industry standard for assessing cyber risk and which undergoes regular evaluation and updating to ensure reliable results.
Our tool calculates vulnerability based on six metrics to arrive at sub-scores for exploitability and impact; these in turn are used to assign a base score. Your results are summarized in a report, which can be delivered to your online dashboard, and adds value in the form of recommendations to lower risk.
Often, additional protection is simple, including measures such as:
- Enforcing password policies
- Using a firewall
- Removing outdated plug-ins
- Using a secure CMS
- Regularly performing scans and following up on security advice
