“Malware. Ransomware. Social engineering schemes. Brute force attacks. Man-in-the-middle traps”

Your organization’s data and networks are under siege by cyber criminals. As a security-conscious organization, you continually try to protect against the many threats and vulnerabilities facing your cyber assets. How confident are you that your protective measures are effective against current and emerging cyberattacks?

The way cyber professionals recommend to gauge the effectiveness of your cyber defenses – your equipment, protocols, and people – is to test your security. We offer sophisticated penetration testing solutions that help you safely replicate the potential actions of a malicious attacker. We can look at your organization’s systems and protocols holistically, from the viewpoint of both an attacker, and a responder. Our findings can help give your organization a more accurate understanding of its cyber security weaknesses, thereby enabling you to identify and fortify vulnerable areas.

Drawing on our extensive experience investigating a myriad of types and sizes of data breaches, we are able to simulate the real-world techniques used by attackers. Our customized approach means that testing focuses on your company’s high-risk assets and the risk profile of your organization. Ultimately, our goal is to identify and prioritize your organization’s risks and work together to build a manageable plan to strengthen your security defenses.

At the conclusion of our penetration testing services, we provide substantive evidence of vulnerabilities and recommendations for effective countermeasures to reduce your risk. This allows your company to take action before a cyber-intruder can compromise your system and steal sensitive and valuable data.

We utilize vulnerability scanning software with the most up-to-date data security information that help our experts deliver actionable and prioritized recommendations to improve your IT security.

“From Vulnerability Scanning to Actionable Data”

Once vulnerability scanning is complete, our team of experts will analyze the findings, delivering a set of actionable, prioritized recommendations to improve your IT security posture. Applying our expert perspective to thousands of pages of data, we highlight the critical security issues that must be addressed today — and provide you with a plan for continuous improvement over time.

Our expertise allows us to identify and analyze the scope and intent of advanced persistent threats to launch a targeted and effective response. When sensitive information is compromised by malicious software, knowing how it works and what it’s capable of doing is crucial to an effective incident response.

No antivirus or antimalware product can identify and stop 100% of malicious code from penetrating or activating inside your IT network. If you suspect malware caused a data breach or other information security incident, it is vital to quickly understand the scope of the malware impact on your systems and identify any data loss. The only true way to do this is to look at the machine language code inside the malware. Most hackers use sophisticated software to make it hard to get to the actual code; they may even throw a layer of encryption into the equation.

Malicious software attacks that succeed in infiltrating a company’s network pose a strong threat to commercial and public sector interests. We have tools to quickly detect, analyze, and inactivate malware viruses.

Your data. Their systems. Whose standards?

No matter how secure your company’s IT system is, sometimes your risk of data breach depends on who you associate with. In today’s complex business environment, large amounts of sensitive data are often shared with partners, outside vendors and service providers — who all have their own dedicated IT systems, processes and protections.

Our Third Party Reviews can help ensure that your business partners — or companies you refer your customers to — hold the same high standards you have when it comes to data security. We can certify that these third parties are handling sensitive data in accordance with regulatory guidelines and industry standards. Third Party Reviews are especially important in highly regulated environments like healthcare, finance, or insurance — where data breaches are a costly and critical issue. Third Party reviews can also be important for companies working on critical infrastructure.

Therefore before you put your reputation in someone else’s hands, reach out to our Third Party Reviews team. Our trained and licensed Third Party Review experts bring objectivity and quantifiable results — giving you the information you need to make sound business decisions.

If you are involved in a contentious situation where proprietary or confidential information has a high financial value, you could be “bugged.” Executive offices and boardrooms are high-risk targets. Physical listening devices and software “bugs” are easily deployed and difficult to detect. Our experts will use the most advanced technology to determine if you have a physical or digital listening device or “bug” deployed and deal with it.

Our experts are able to detect and locate most planted physical bugs: microphone or video camera recorders or transmitters, phone taps, GPS trackers, and other hardware interception devices. Bug detection techniques are based on finding infrastructure irregularities using various analyzers and detectors: Time Domain Reflectometer, Non-linear Junction Detector, Spectrum Analyzer, Oscilloscope, etc.

A bug can be digital or physical i.e. these listening devices can be physical or in the form of software within the mobile device. Over the last decade and more acutely in the past few years, the focus shifted from conventional hardware bugs to cyber bugs. These are software programs that target IT equipment and use its capabilities to secretly intercept and transmit information. Cyber bugs are very effective as they can either retrieve information as classic bugs do (content and activity of a device) or simply turn the whole device into a spying tool, by using its microphone, camera, GPS, etc.

If we count the fact that mobile devices are always on the move with their owners, cyber bugs become even more frightening. In other words, cyber bugs do not have a hardware body but can do the work of a hardware bug and much more. Not being an actual device to pinpoint, cyber bugs are often difficult to identify and locate. This can be accomplished only by detecting anomalies associated with digital media, GSM, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or local networks. These mediums, along with the actual devices, can be scanned in order to identify potential pathways for cyber bugs.

We work closely with your IT Security department to eliminate electronic bugs by:

• network mapping and monitoring to assess possible threats
• determine anomalies in cellular and Wi-Fi signals
• analyzing network hardware like individual networked computers, wireless access points, switches, routers, power sources, or cables
