Security Risk Assessment
☂ Helps satisfy common cyber insurance requirements

What is Security Risk Assessment?
A security risk assessment is a structured evaluation of your business's technology environment to identify vulnerabilities, threats, and gaps in your current security controls. It gives you a clear picture of your risk exposure and where to focus your efforts.
Why it matters
You can't protect against risks you don't know about. A risk assessment provides the foundational knowledge needed to make informed security investments and avoid spending money in the wrong places.
How we implement it
We conduct interviews with key stakeholders, review your technology environment, and assess your controls against the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, with device and system configuration measured against the CIS Benchmarks. Findings are documented in a prioritized report with risk ratings and actionable recommendations.

Common questions
What does a security risk assessment cover?
Your whole posture: devices, accounts, network, cloud, backups, policies, and where sensitive data actually lives. You get a clear picture of what is strong, what is exposed, and what to fix first.
Is this the assessment HIPAA requires?
HIPAA expects a documented security risk analysis, and this fulfills that expectation, in a form you can hand to an auditor, insurer, or partner who asks for evidence.
How often should we reassess?
Annually as a rhythm, plus after significant changes like a new location, new systems, or a merger. Each assessment measures progress against the last, so improvement is visible.
What happens after we get the report?
Findings come ranked by risk and effort, and the ones already covered by your plan get scheduled straight away. You end up with a work list rather than a document that sits in a drawer.
