What is Cyber Security Consultancy?
Every organisation has risks. Every organisation with internet-connected technology has cyber security risks.
Often, non-technical business leaders assume their cyber risks are relatively low, especially if they haven’t experienced a cyber incident. Whereas technically-minded leaders often appreciate the importance of instructing an expert to assess risks, no matter what they believe.
Cyber security consultancy is simply the process of instructing a subject matter expert to analyse an organisation and document perceived risk.
Atlas Cloud offers varying levels of consultancy to suit any organisation, depending on risk tolerance and compliance needs.
Who do we work with for Cyber Security Consultancy?
Atlas Cloud has a full range of consultancy services to suit any need.
Our cyber security expertise is used to cover the basics, through our cost-effective Cyber Security MOT, right the way up to a complete penetration test. There are many steps in between.
Due to their industry compliance needs, we work with many law firms and recruitment agencies to help assess and remediate their cyber security risks.
CYBER SECURITY MATURITY
Cyber is about risk management and requirements differ for everyone.
Our handy model is designed to help SME directors determine the most appropriate level of analysis for their organisation.
We also offer Dark Web Monitoring or can tailor services around your requirements.
CYBER SECURITY MOT: STEP 1
/ Get started from just £100, a one-time fee.
Step 1 is an external assessment. Like MOT’ing a car, but we don’t touch it – just assess from the outside. Analysis by an expert with results presented over a 15 min appointment. Recommended annually.
Outcome: Receive an MOT certificate and recommendations.
CYBER SECURITY MOT: STEP 2
/ Get started from just £100, a one-time fee.
Step 2 is an internal assessment. Like MOT’ing a car, you briefly hand over the keys while and an expert performs an assessment. Simply grant access and get analysis by an expert with results presented over a 15 min appointment. Recommended annually.
Outcome: Receive an MOT certificate and recommendations.
CYBER ESSENTIALS
/ Get government approval for cyber safety.
Cyber Essentials is a UK Government-backed accreditation scheme to align to their minimum recommended defence mechanisms. It’s a self-assessment analysis, certified by an expert. It needs to be performed annually.
Outcome: Gain external verification and receive the widely-recognised accreditation, which could also act as a deterrent.
CYBER ESSENTIALS PLUS
/ Get premium government approval for cyber safety.
Cyber Essentials Plus is a more rigorous assessment of essentially the same criteria as Cyber Essentials, making accreditation even more prestigious. Includes a vulnerability scan. Performed annually.
Outcome: Gain external verification and receive the widely-recognised accreditation, which could also act as a deterrent.
RECONNAISSANCE
/ A comprehensive cyber security audit.
A full (internal and external) analysis of an organisation, performed and documented by an expert. An expert performs a full vulnerability analysis, documents their findings and makes recommendations. Recommended annually.
Outcome: Findings and required remediation documented.
PENETRATION TESTING
/ Thinking like an attacker is the only way to have full confidence.
Penetration testing is essentially ethical hacking, performed by an accredited expert. It helps to determine vulnerabilities as an attacker would find them. Findings are fully documented with recommendations from the analysis. Often performed annually.
Outcome: Findings and required remediation documented.
