Our Assessment Process
A three-phase approach to identify and remediate security gaps in your environment.
Phase 1: Discovery & Scoping
We meet with your team, map your environment, define the scope, and identify all systems, users, and data flows to be evaluated.
Phase 2: Vulnerability Analysis
Using industry-standard tools and manual review, we probe your environment for weaknesses — from network misconfigurations to endpoint gaps.
Phase 3: Report & Remediation
You receive a detailed findings report with a prioritized remediation roadmap, including specific tool and hardware recommendations.
What We Assess
A comprehensive evaluation across eight critical security domains.
Network Security
Firewalls, switches, VLANs, open ports, and remote access policies
Endpoint Protection
Antivirus, EDR solutions, patch levels, and device management policies
Email Security
Spam filtering, DKIM/DMARC/SPF configuration, phishing exposure
Identity & Access Management
Active Directory hygiene, privilege escalation risks, MFA adoption
Data Protection
Backup policies, encryption at rest and in transit, data classification
Compliance Readiness
HIPAA, PCI-DSS, NIST CSF, and industry-specific regulatory alignment
Physical Security
Server room access controls, hardware security, and physical threat vectors
Incident Response Readiness
Detection capabilities, response plans, and recovery procedures
NIST Cybersecurity Framework Alignment
We align our assessments with the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) to give your organization a proven, structured approach to managing cyber risk.
Identify
Asset management, risk assessment, and governance — understand what you need to protect and where your risks live.
Protect
Access controls, security training, and data protection measures to safeguard critical services and infrastructure.
Detect
Continuous monitoring, anomaly detection, and event analysis to identify threats before they escalate.
Respond
Incident response planning, communication protocols, and mitigation strategies to contain and minimize impact.
Recover
Recovery planning, improvements, and communications to restore services and strengthen resilience after an incident.
Why NIST CSF?
The NIST Cybersecurity Framework is the most widely adopted security standard in the United States. It provides a common language for managing cybersecurity risk and is recognized across industries including healthcare, finance, government, and retail. ITCC maps every assessment finding to the appropriate NIST function, giving you a clear roadmap that aligns with industry best practices.
Why Security Assessments Matter
Proactive security is your best defense. Here's what the data shows:
of small businesses that suffer a cyberattack close within 6 months
Without proper security measures, breaches can be fatal to your business.
average cost of a data breach
Identify and close gaps before they become costly incidents.
increase in ransomware attacks year over year
Proactive hardening is your best defense against emerging threats.
Most breaches exploit known vulnerabilities
Regular assessments catch issues before attackers do.
What Does a Security Assessment Cost?
Security assessments are scoped to your environment, so pricing varies. For most small businesses and organizations, assessments start at $3,500 and scale based on the number of locations, users, systems, and compliance frameworks in scope. Every engagement includes a full written findings report and a prioritized remediation roadmap.
