Cybersecurity Audit Penetration Test

World Class Cybersecurity Audit and Penetration Test

Emulating the approach used by hackers, Altius IT performs a controlled real-life cybersecurity audit and penetration testing evaluation of your firewalls, network entry points, and public IP addresses for security issues that allow hackers access to your systems and data.

Our experts analyze your systems for potential vulnerabilities that result from poor or improper system configuration, known and unknown hardware or software flaws, or operational weaknesses.

Our cybersecurity audit goes beyond external penetration testing to evaluate your organization's complete ability to prevent, detect, and respond to cyber threats. Our proprietary audit process covers your defensive and detective cybersecurity capabilities:

Penetration Testing

• External penetration testing – of firewalls, network entry points, and public-facing IP addresses
• Internal penetration testing – including lateral movement and privilege escalation assessment
• Social engineering testing – including phishing simulations and pretexting

Threat Defense and Detection

• Threat landscape assessment – specific to your industry and business profile
• Email security controls – including anti-phishing, DMARC/DKIM/SPF, and attachment sandboxing
• Endpoint detection and response (EDR) – deployment, coverage, and response capabilities
• Security operations – including SIEM configuration, log correlation, alert tuning, and escalation workflows
• Vulnerability management program – including scanning cadence, prioritization, and remediation timelines
• Ransomware readiness – including backup isolation, recovery procedures, and containment playbooks
• Threat intelligence integration – and threat hunting capabilities
• Dark web exposure – and credential leak monitoring
• Zero trust architecture – progress and identity-based access controls

Web Application Security Audit

• Web application security testing – for OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities, including SQL injection, cross-site scripting, and buffer overflow
• Authentication, session management, and encryption – evaluation
• Input validation and API security – assessment
• Web application configuration – and server-side security review

Incident Response

Incident response is a vital part of any comprehensive cybersecurity audit, ensuring that organizations are prepared to act swiftly and effectively when security threats arise. Our auditors evaluate your incident response plan, including documented procedures, tabletop exercise history, communication plans, and your team's ability to detect, contain, and recover from security incidents.

Our report identifies specific vulnerabilities and provides detailed instructions to mitigate or eliminate each risk.

In addition to our cybersecurity audit and penetration test, Altius IT also offers on-site network security audits, web application security audits, and social engineering security assessments as standalone engagements.
