category: “business”

Our Cybersecurity Audit service gives small businesses a practical, non-technical assessment of their security posture. We focus on high-impact, low-effort fixes that reduce real-world risk.

What we check

  • Network segmentation and firewall configuration
  • Endpoint protections and patching status
  • Backup integrity and ransomware readiness
  • User account hygiene and password practices
  • Exposure of sensitive services to the internet

Deliverables

You will receive a clear report with prioritized findings, estimated effort, and recommended fixes. We offer a fixed-price remediation option or hourly assistance to implement the improvements.

Pricing

  • Basic Audit — $349: small footprint assessment (up to 5 devices)
  • Standard Audit — $749: mid-size networks and multiple locations
  • Remediation — quoted per scope (we provide a fixed estimate)

Service level & warranty

  • Response window for remediation work: 48 business hours for scheduling, with emergency response available for critical incidents (SLA available on request).
  • Work includes a 30-day follow-up check to validate applied fixes and confirm no regression in findings.

Case study — Local cafe

A neighborhood cafe was experiencing intermittent POS timeouts during peak hours. Our audit found an improperly configured guest VLAN and an overloaded access point positioned behind a metal shelf. After segmenting the POS network, moving the AP, and applying QoS, transaction failures dropped to 0% and checkout time improved by ~40%.

Frequently asked questions

  • How long does an audit take? — Typical small-business audits take 2–4 hours on-site, followed by a written report within 48 hours.
  • Will you need admin access? — We may need temporary administrative access to devices to review configurations; we provide a checklist and can work with restricted accounts if preferred.
  • Do you offer remediation? — Yes — we provide fixed-price remediation packages or hourly implementation depending on your preference.

Schedule a cybersecurity audit to get a concise report and actionable next steps to protect your business.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about this service.

What are the signs of a cybersecurity problem?

Warning signs to watch for

Tap to reveal answer

Slow computer performance, unexpected pop-ups, emails you didn't send, password resets you didn't request, unfamiliar programs, and unusual network activity. If something feels wrong, it's worth investigating.

Do small businesses really need cybersecurity?

Small businesses are frequent targets

Tap to reveal answer

Yes. Small businesses are often targeted specifically because they typically have weaker security than large enterprises. 43% of cyberattacks target small businesses, and many never fully recover.

What's included in a security audit?

Comprehensive assessment

Tap to reveal answer

We review your network configuration, firewall settings, endpoint protection, backup status, user account security, password practices, and exposure of services to the internet. You receive a prioritized report with recommendations.

How do phishing simulations work?

Safe testing of staff awareness

Tap to reveal answer

We send realistic but harmless fake phishing emails to your team. We track who clicks links or enters credentials, then provide training based on results. This helps identify which employees need additional security awareness training.

Can you help after a security incident?

Incident response available

Tap to reveal answer

Yes. We can help contain active threats, assess damage, recover from ransomware, and implement measures to prevent recurrence. For active incidents, call us immediately—time is critical.

What compliance requirements can you help with?

PCI and basic compliance

Tap to reveal answer

We help small retailers with basic PCI compliance requirements for credit card processing. We can document your security controls and identify gaps auditors may flag.

How often should we do security audits?

Regular assessment recommended

Tap to reveal answer

We recommend annual security audits at minimum, plus after any significant changes (new location, major system changes, security incidents). High-risk businesses may benefit from quarterly reviews.

What's the biggest security risk for small businesses?

Human error is #1

Tap to reveal answer

Phishing and social engineering cause most breaches. Technical measures matter, but employee training on recognizing threats provides the highest return on security investment.
