Enhance your defences with a cybersecurity risk assessment
As ransomware threats become increasingly common, businesses are starting to understand the ramifications of being ill-prepared.
What is ransomware?
At its core, ransomware is a type of malicious software (malware) that allows cyber criminals to gain unauthorized access to an organization's IT infrastructure, leading to the hijacking of valuable assets to extort payment from the victim. These malicious actors employ encryption techniques to restrict employees from accessing vital applications, data, or computer systems. Even if the ransom is paid, there is no guarantee that the cyber criminals will restore the affected services.
The true cost of a ransomware attack
Businesses without a dedicated cyber team are particularly vulnerable to cyber threats. While most businesses recognize the importance of having a robust cybersecurity plan in place, many lack the necessary resources to evaluate their current level of readiness against an attack.

A cost-effective solution
Our team uses Ransomware Readiness Assessments to evaluate your business's security posture and preparedness against ransomware attacks. By simulating the potential impact of ransomware through the perspective of an attacker, we generate a comprehensive list of key recommendations for enhancing your cyber defences.
The value of our Ransomware Readiness Assessments
The assessment can help you identify areas of improvement for your IT and security programs, providing a snapshot of your organization’s current risk posture and informing future investment.
Simulations gauge your business’s ability to respond to and recover from disaster, providing insights into the strengths and areas of improvement within your existing plans.
Our team analyzes your business’s security posture from a cyber criminal’s perspective, giving a realistic picture of what an external cyber attacker would see when targeting your business.
Testing your readiness
Our Ransomware Readiness Assessments help you understand your ability to defend yourself against attack and strengthen your cyber defences.
Collaborate with your IT team to understand the configuration and status of your infrastructure and highlight the vulnerable areas that are more likely to be targeted by cyber criminals.
Deploy simulated malware at a selected network entry point. This malware is used to remotely access your network, without damaging your data or infrastructure.
Explore the network and discover accessible assets from the initial entry point. Leverage advanced tactics, techniques, and procedures utilized by cyber criminals to assess how many other assets and systems can be compromised or reached from the initial entry point.
Gather additional information through a workshop with your IT team, combining your organization’s insight with the results from our enumeration of your internal environment in the previous stage.
Deliver a comprehensive report outlining a snapshot of your business’s current resilience against ransomware attacks, alongside a set of concrete recommendations that can aid in improving your overall security posture.
