A Proactive, Risks vs. Benefits Approach to Optimizing Security Investments and Detecting Security Weaknesses
Cybersecurity is of paramount concern to anyone operating a business today. The pandemic introduced a great amount of change to our lives and how we work and communicate. With the gradual shift to remote and hybrid work models, organizations are digitally exposed and increasingly vulnerable to cyberattacks. Consequently, the cost of cyber incidents has never been higher.
A Vulnerability and Gaps Assessment digs deeply into an organization’s risk management capabilities, presents solutions, and provides recommendations in a detailed process, resulting in a more dynamic and proactive approach to your security.
Securing an enterprise has become difficult due to the spread of the attack surface from on-prem to cloud and hybrid models. The first step to manage and maintain security posture of such enterprises is to understand where to initiate and how to prioritize an organization’s people, processes, and tools. The other steps include:
The Cybalt Offensive Security Professional Services combines best in class governance, risk, and compliance testing tools, proven testing processes, and top technical talent to deliver a successful on-budget project and an exceptional client experience. The talented team of consultants at Cybalt is comprised of highly certified and experienced personnel. Cybalt professionals have industry accreditations including Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH), Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP), Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA), Information Systems Security Management Professional (ISSMP), Certified in Risk and Information Systems Control (CRISC), and Certification and Accreditation Professional (CAP).
The comprehensive vulnerability testing services performed by Cybalt looks for vulnerabilities across all aspects of the organization’s IT infrastructure. Our vulnerability testing services utilize industry-leading threat intelligence resources, vulnerability databases, such as the NIST NVD, and a combination of professional and open-source scanning and testing tools. The Cybalt vulnerability testing framework assists organizations in planning and conducting technical information security tests and examinations, analysing findings, and developing mitigation strategies, based on criticality and risk to the client organization.
Today, organizations are more connected to the Internet and Cloud than ever before. With the remote working environment here to stay, an organization must be relentless in ensuring an attacker can exploit no known and unknown weaknesses in the network. External vulnerability testing aims to identify any weakness in the deployed, Internet-facing network architecture that can be attacked. Internal vulnerability testing looks for holes in the network and identity management systems to prevent insider threats, a trend on the rise, up 44% so far in 2022.
The vulnerability analysis services of Cybalt are focused on vulnerability exposure and severity of the security weaknesses. Cybalt experts, as a risk management partner, will provide guidance on the best and most cost-effective methods to prioritize your organization’s remediation efforts. Cybalt’s differentiator in its vulnerability analysis capabilities is in its accuracy of testing and ease of use and clear, actionable reports.
With the adoption of new privacy laws and their requirement for organizations to prove they will protect client data, having a mature security program is no longer optional, but mandatory. The Cybalt Gap Assessment services will review an organization’s administrative, technical, and physical controls against relevant compliance standards and security frameworks, such as HIPAA, CIS, NIST CSF, and ISO 27K. Cybalt will help answer the three questions any auditor or client asks: “Do you know what you are trying to Protect? How do you protect it? And can you provide evidence of those protections?”
Cybalt’s Vulnerability and Gap Assessment services’ core value proposition is to ensure an organization is proactive in minimizing vulnerabilities and weaknesses that lead to cyber-attacks.

Overall, the project was a huge success, and we've expanded on this model for other sports and the new NASCAR season. As a result, we'll be able to add more production elements into the show without adding too many more bodies on site. By expanding the use of KVM over IP technology, we're able to keep our production team safe while giving viewers at home a richer broadcast product.”
