Frequently Asked Questions

Our audits include patching reviews, firewall config checks, vulnerability scans, SSL settings, DNS checks, and a full remediation report.
Smaller businesses are often targeted due to weaker defences. A breach could lead to data loss, legal action, or loss of trust.
Yes. We provide tailored support for security controls, documentation, and audits to meet ISO 27001, PCI DSS, and GDPR requirements.
Absolutely. We can action everything we find, or you can share the report with your own developer or IT provider.
A penetration test simulates real-world attacks to identify how attackers could exploit your site or systems and where to improve.
We recommend at least once every 6–12 months, or after major updates to your website, server, or CMS platform.
Yes, but it depends how it’s managed. Keeping plugins/themes up to date, setting strong passwords, and applying hardening steps is critical.
A firewall helps block malicious traffic before it reaches your site. We recommend software firewalls at minimum, or WAFs for added protection.
We walk you through the results, explain them in plain English, and either apply the changes or support your team in doing so.
Yes. We offer monthly plans for monitoring, patching, and follow-up scans to keep you secure all year round.

Cybersecurity Terms You Should Know!

Firewall

Protects your network or server by filtering incoming and outgoing traffic, blocking malicious activity.

CDN (Content Delivery Network)

A global network of servers that speeds up your site and adds protection from traffic overload or attacks.

SSL Certificate

Encrypts data between your site and visitors. Required for secure HTTPS connections.

2FA (Two-Factor Authentication)

Requires a second method (like a code to your phone) in addition to your password to log in.

Vulnerability Scan

A scan to detect outdated software, misconfigurations, or known weaknesses in your system.

Penetration Testing

Ethical hacking to simulate attacks and find exploitable weaknesses in a system or website.

Patch Management

Regularly updating systems and software to fix security vulnerabilities before attackers exploit them.

WAF (Web Application Firewall)

A firewall that protects web applications from common threats like SQL injection or XSS.

DNSSEC

Adds an extra layer of trust to DNS, ensuring users are directed to the correct site without spoofing.

Zero Trust

A security model that assumes no device or user is trusted by default, even inside the network.

SOC (Security Operations Center)

A centralized unit that monitors, detects, and responds to cybersecurity incidents in real time.

Phishing

A deceptive attempt to obtain sensitive information by pretending to be a trustworthy entity in digital communication.

Endpoint Security

Measures taken to secure end-user devices like desktops, laptops, and mobile devices from cyber threats.

SIEM (Security Information and Event Management)

Software that provides real-time analysis of security alerts generated by applications and network hardware.

Encryption

The process of converting data into a coded format to prevent unauthorized access.
