SECURITY AUDIT.

Cyber threats are constantly evolving, and the weaknesses attackers exploit are often hiding in plain sight. A WeAreLIT Security Audit gives you a clear, independent picture of how well your business is protected today. We review your networks, devices, cloud services, user accounts and policies, identify the gaps that put your data at risk, and give you a practical, prioritised plan to close them.

Why Your Business Needs a Security Audit

You can’t protect what you can’t see. A security audit uncovers misconfigurations, outdated software, weak passwords and excessive access rights before an attacker does. It helps you meet the expectations of customers, insurers and regulators, reduces the risk of costly downtime and data breaches, and gives you confidence that your investment in IT security is working.

An Independent, Expert View

Our experienced engineers assess your environment against recognised best practice and frameworks such as Cyber Essentials, ISO 27001 and UK GDPR. We explain our findings in plain English, without jargon or scare tactics, so you understand exactly where you stand and what to do next.

WHAT WE ASSESS.

Network & Perimeter Security

Firewalls, routers, Wi-Fi, VPN and remote access are reviewed for open ports, insecure configurations and unpatched firmware.

Endpoints & Servers

We check laptops, desktops, servers and mobile devices for up-to-date patching, antivirus/EDR coverage, encryption and secure configuration.

Microsoft 365 & Cloud

Your Microsoft 365, Google Workspace and Azure tenants are audited for security settings, sharing permissions, mail protection and audit logging.

Identity & Access

We review user accounts, admin privileges, multi-factor authentication, password policies and leavers’ accounts that should no longer have access.

Data Protection & Backup

We confirm where your sensitive data lives, who can access it, and whether your backups are secure, tested and able to recover from ransomware.

Policies, People & Compliance

We assess security policies, staff awareness and incident response readiness, and map findings against your compliance obligations.

OUR AUDIT PROCESS.

1. Discovery & Scoping

We get to know your business, systems and goals, and agree the scope and timings of the audit with minimal disruption to your team.

2. Assessment

Our engineers carry out a thorough technical review using industry-standard tools, combined with configuration and policy checks.

3. Report & Prioritise

You receive a clear report with a risk rating for every finding, an executive summary and a prioritised remediation roadmap.

4. Remediate & Review

We walk you through the results and can fix the issues for you, then re-test to confirm that every gap has been closed.
