Cybersecurity & threat detection

Audit, harden, monitor and rehearse the response — so a breach is an incident you handle rather than a crisis you discover late.

What does a cybersecurity engagement cover?

A typical engagement audits your current exposure across infrastructure, applications and access, hardens the gaps by priority, sets up monitoring and alerting for suspicious activity, and produces a rehearsed incident response plan covering the DPDP Act's breach notification obligations.

Basics first, sophistication later

Most successful attacks on organisations of this size are not sophisticated. They exploit an unpatched server, a reused password without multi-factor authentication, an exposed database, or a phishing email nobody was trained to spot. Advanced tooling bought before those are fixed is money spent on the wrong layer.

So we work in order of what actually gets exploited: access control and MFA, patching, exposure reduction, backup integrity, then monitoring and detection. Unglamorous, and it closes the paths attackers actually use.

Deliverables

What you receive

  • A security audit report with prioritised, specific findings
  • Hardening implemented across the agreed scope
  • Monitoring and alerting configuration
  • Verified, test-restored backups
  • Incident response plan including breach notification duties

Engagement shape

Audit as a fixed-price first phase of two to four weeks. Remediation is scoped from the findings.

Tooling

What we typically build with

  • OWASP ASVS
  • Wazuh
  • Cloudflare
  • Vulnerability scanning
  • MFA and SSO
  • DPDP Act 2023
  • Nmap and Burp Suite

Stack decisions follow the problem. This is where we usually start, not a fixed menu.

Frequently asked

Questions we get about this

Is a penetration test the same as a security audit?

No. A penetration test attempts to exploit specific systems and tells you what an attacker could reach. An audit reviews configuration, access, processes and exposure more broadly. Most organisations get more value from the audit first, then a penetration test once the obvious gaps are closed.

What are our obligations if we are breached?

Under the DPDP Act 2023, personal data breaches must be notified to the Data Protection Board and to affected individuals. The practical difficulty is detecting and scoping a breach quickly enough to report accurately, which is why monitoring and a rehearsed plan matter more than the policy document.
