Question 1

We are a small business — are we really a target?

Accepted Answer

Most attacks are not targeted at all; they are automated scans looking for any system with a known weakness. Small businesses get hit precisely because they assume no one is looking. The common outcomes are ransomware, a hijacked email account used to defraud your customers, or a defaced website.

Question 2

What does a security audit involve?

Accepted Answer

We review your website or application for known vulnerability classes, check how passwords and sessions are handled, examine access controls and third-party components, and review your backup and recovery position. You receive a written report ranked by real-world risk, with specific fixes rather than generic advice.

Question 3

Do you fix what you find, or only report it?

Accepted Answer

Either. Some clients want the report so their own team can act on it; others want us to remediate. We quote the fixes separately from the audit so the assessment stays honest and you are not paying for findings we invented work from.

Question 4

Is penetration testing disruptive to our live systems?

Accepted Answer

It is scoped so that it is not. We agree in writing what is in scope and what is off limits, run intrusive tests against a staging copy where possible, and schedule anything that could affect performance for off-peak hours.

Question 5

Will this help us meet compliance requirements?

Accepted Answer

A security audit and the resulting fixes support compliance work under GDPR and UK GDPR, CCPA, PIPEDA and the Australian Privacy Act, and provide evidence of due diligence for insurers and enterprise customers. We are not a certification body, so we will be clear about what our report does and does not prove.
