Cybersecurity Boost for Security Advisory Firm
TRANSACTION ADVISORY CLIENT SUCCESS
CHALLENGE
Our client, a leading and rapidly growing PE backed firm specializing in National Security advisory services, utilizing contractors and advisors with a solid background in Department of Defense, had just engaged a 3rd party IT managed services firm to help oversee IT and security operations. Although they had made efforts to perform security audits of specific end user computing tools in the past, they had never performed a comprehensive vulnerability scan of both internal and external networks.
SOLUTION
Complete an in-depth cybersecurity review leveraging the NIST control framework supplemented by performing internal and external vulnerability scans as part of due diligence. The results of this scan pointed to issues in the network which if not patched, would have left this firm vulnerable to cybersecurity attacks.
