Assessment

Prevention. Protection. Safety

Application Security Assessment

Security risks have moved beyond the network and operating systems and are more significant in the application and access to data through applications. Finding and fixing security problems early in the development cycle is more efficient and cost effective than testing after the application goes into production. Yet many companies only test for functional requirements in application testing. Security vulnerabilities can be identified early in the development phase through a structured approach. Our Application Security Assessment is designed to meet best practices for application security. Industry regulations such as PCI, HIPAA and Red Flag require application security testing. Adsevero can also assess custom-designed items such as web applications and commercial applications


Network Risk Assessment

Our solution uses quantitative and qualitative methods to define the current and future state of your security environment in a complete Network Risk Assessment. We determine how your organization maps to best practices, along with the steps needed to get to the next level of security, and maintain a robust security environment as change occurs. A Network Risk Assessment identifies deficiencies and correlates them to practical solution


Penetration Testing Assessment

Penetration Testing is the first tactical step many companies take to begin the identification process for weaknesses in their IT environment. Our security professionals use proven techniques, methodologies and tools to detect undesirable risks. Adsevero will evaluate your technical, administrative and management security controls, and conduct tests against your Internet perimeter using real-world attack techniques — both automated and manual.
We offer 3 types of Penetration Testing:
• External Penetration Test
• Internal Penetration Test
• Website Application Penetration Testing


Vulnerability Assessment

Technology is frequently mis-configured or mismanaged, which in turn introduces points of weakness into the organization. Every device connected to the network has the potential to allow an attacker in. Vulnerability assessment can be used against many different types of systems such as networked based, host based or application based. A company needs to know what threats are inherent in the infrastructure based on current and future technology purchases.
Vulnerability Assessments are necessary to identify vulnerabilities, but also are necessary to show changes in the environment over time as the organization grows and changes. Future threats need to be addressed through vulnerability assessment and trend analysis.Vulnerability analysis is the frontline in securing an organization. Adsevero can develop custom-built methodologies to utilize your personnel and financial resources to help meet business goals. Vulnerability scanning is a necessary tactical approach to securing all the “low-hanging” risk in an infrastructure. Tests will be conducted against Internet perimeters and internal systems using real world attacks techniques in an automated manner


Forensic Services

With any active cyber threat, it is critical to understand the source and full extent of the network security breach in order to effectively respond and eradicate its presence in your environment. Through Adsevero’s Forensics service, our Information Security Consultants move quickly to capture and analyze data stored in your hard drives, CDs, DVDs, thumb drives and other media formats through Incident Response procedures. Following evidentiary procedures to ensure integrity and admissibility, our IT Security team will thoroughly investigate the incident while keeping you informed of all results. Computer forensic investigation can be performed during Incident Response Handling or independently, depending on your needs.

Data Loss Prevention Technical Assessment

The security industry has evolved to the point where data can now be granularly tracked, monitored, blocked and reported. With so many forms of connectivity into and out of the organization, it is difficult to know where your data is and who has access to it. The Data Loss Prevention (DLP) Assessment addresses the needs of organizations to more tightly control their data, know where it is, from creation, to modification to transport, to storage and destruction. Data can reside anywhere from the Blackberry, to email, to spreadsheets on a desktop with no way of tracking it. Solution, we help you gain an understanding of how information moves into and out of your organization and develop policies and procedures along with the necessary tools to control your data leakage problems


Security Audit Assessment

The security audit is a systematic evaluation of the company’s information system by comparing it to an established set of criteria. A security audit produces a written record of the results that document the system capabilities. The security audit typically satisifies the requirements of regulatory compliance like HIPAA and Sarbanes-Oxley. The audit will test authentication for access control to see if the strong password policy is correctly implemented, probably by attempting to create a weak password.


Security Policy Development and Assessment

Our security policy development and assessment services are uniquely tailored to fit your requirements; they deliver results appropriate to the risks and threats your organization faces, and are balanced against your organization’s resources and implementation capabilities. Our process includes an initial risk assessment and gap analysis to identify and prioritize policy, standards and procedures against high-risk threats to your organization. We evaluate your current policies where they exist and address areas requiring revision or inclusion. Our security policy and assessment services use accepted industry standards such as ISO/IEC 27002, COBIT and ITIL. Your security policy will help you reduce your risk and cover all aspects from physical to logical security requirements. It will also give you a solid foundation to increase your IT operations availability, reduce downtime, and provide assurance to customers, partners and suppliers.


Social Engineering Assessment

Social engineering is an attackers manipulation of the natural human tendency to trust. The hackers goal is to obtain information that will allow them to gain unauthorized access to a valued system and the information that resides on that system or within that organization. Since security is all about trust, we believe the user is the weakest link in the security chain, the natural human willingness to accept someone at his or her word leaves many of us vulnerable to attack. No matter how much technology is bought and deployed, you only reduce the threat so much… and then it’s up to your users.


Security Policy Gap Assessment

A Policy Gap Analysis project provides a client with a structured mentoring process for commencing the design of a new security policy framework or evaluating an existing framework. Clients who choose the Gap Analysis ultimately benefit from an understanding of the positive components within their security policy framework as well as deficiencies that must be addressed. The process directly incorporates regulatory compliance topics and technical controls to define the initial security posture for the organization. The review result is a clearly written deliverable that identifies critical findings, recommended next steps, and areas that should be considered for further review.
