  • Support compliance, audits, and cyber insurance readiness

Our approach combines technical testing, control validation, and compliance mapping into a structured assessment that helps you reduce risk and strengthen defenses with confidence.

 

 

What Is a Cybersecurity Risk Assessment?

A cybersecurity risk assessment evaluates your environment to identify threats, vulnerabilities, and control gaps that could lead to business disruption, data loss, or compliance exposure.
Instead of guesswork, you get a documented view of risk, likelihood, and impact—plus prioritized recommendations your team can actually execute. 

 

What’s Included:
Discovery & Scope
  • Business goals, crown jewels, and risk tolerance
  • Asset inventory review (users, devices, cloud, apps)
  • Assessment scope aligned to your environment
Threat & Vulnerability Review
  • Vulnerability scanning and exposure analysis
  • Patch posture and configuration weaknesses
  • External attack surface review
Identity & Access Risk
  • MFA, conditional access, and account hygiene review
  • Privileged access and admin tool exposure
  • Role/permission risk and access gaps
Email & Endpoint Controls
  • Phishing and email security posture review
  • Endpoint protection and detection coverage
  • Policy enforcement and control effectiveness
Network & Cloud Security Posture
  • Firewall and segmentation review
  • Remote access and VPN control evaluation
  • Cloud configuration and tenant hardening checks
Backup & Recovery Risk
  • Backup coverage and restore capability review
  • Ransomware resilience (immutability/segmentation)
  • RTO/RPO alignment to business requirements
Report, Scorecard & Roadmap
  • Risk findings with likelihood and business impact
  • Prioritized remediation plan (quick wins + milestones)
  • Executive summary for leadership and stakeholders
Co-Managed Risk Assessments

If you have internal IT or security staff, we can run the assessment collaboratively—providing testing, validation, documentation, and prioritization while your team executes remediation.
We act as an extension of your team to accelerate outcomes without adding overhead.

Security-First, Compliance-Aware

Every assessment is designed to be actionable and audit-friendly, with optional alignment to:

  • CIS Controls v8 (IG1–IG3)
  • NIST CSF / NIST 800-53 / NIST 800-30
  • SOC 2, CMMC, and industry requirements
  • Cyber insurance questionnaires and controls
  • Utah HB 80 / Safe Harbor alignment

The result is a clear, defensible assessment that reduces uncertainty, improves control effectiveness, and gives you a roadmap to measurably lower risk.

Our Process

We follow a proven cybersecurity risk assessment process designed to identify threats, uncover gaps, and prioritize remediation—so your security posture is clear, defensible, and aligned with business risk.

Managed Risk Assessments Built for Security & Resilience

Cybersecurity Risk Assessment Services

Our Cybersecurity Risk Assessment services provide a clear, structured understanding of your organization’s security posture—identifying risks before they become incidents and prioritizing actions that matter most.

We evaluate your environment across people, processes, and technology to uncover vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and control gaps that could impact business operations, data protection, or compliance obligations.

From asset identification and threat modeling to risk scoring and remediation planning, we deliver actionable insights that help you reduce exposure, strengthen defenses, and make informed security decisions with confidence.

The result is a defensible, repeatable risk management foundation that supports resilience, regulatory alignment, and long-term security maturity—without unnecessary complexity.

Risk & Cyber Compliance

Cyber compliance is built into every cybersecurity risk assessment we perform. We evaluate how well your security controls, policies, and practices align with regulatory, contractual, and industry requirements—not just whether tools are in place.

Our assessments examine governance, risk management, access controls, logging, monitoring, incident response, and data protection to identify compliance gaps and control weaknesses before they become audit findings or breach vectors.

We map identified risks and deficiencies to recognized frameworks including CIS Controls v8, NIST CSF, NIST 800-30, SOC 2, CMMC, and Utah HB 80, providing clear evidence, impact analysis, and prioritized remediation guidance.

The result is a defensible, audit-ready security posture that reduces regulatory exposure, strengthens cyber insurance eligibility, and gives leadership confidence in their compliance standing.
