FREE NETWORK SECURITY AUDIT

It’s 2am – do you know where your data is?

For a limited time period, we are offering a COMPLETELY FREE 1 hour network & data security audit.

We know an hour isn’t a lot of time – in fact in the area of security, no amount of time spent at a single instance can ever be enough. Absolute security is a myth, and true security is a state that can only be achieved by implementing a multi-pronged ongoing strategy, that never stops training, auditing, monitoring, testing & analysing. However, in our experience, if a business even learns ONE thing from spending an hour with us, that one thing can sometimes be the difference between an minor inconvenience and unmitigated disaster. In the interests of balancing the goals of providing a valuable service, building lasting relationships with our community & being commercially viable, we have had to limit our free security audits to 1 hour.

Q: Why should I (the customer) take you up on this offer?
A: This is not a ‘teaser campaign’, and we won’t walk quietly away after an hour of indecipherable mumbling, pointing and head-shaking. That wouldn’t reflect well on us, it wouldn’t give you any value, and we would have just wasted our time and yours. No, that’s not the plan. We will share our findings with you and we will make some concrete recommendations. We’ll even document it in an e-mail to you. There is such a thing as a free lunch.

At the end of the hour, you will have learned more about how to protect yourselves against at least some of the numerous threats that exist “in the wild” today. And you are under no obligation to give us anything in return. Not even a thank you (although it would be nice). Nothing.

Q: Why is iForge offering this service?
A: What we do hope is that we would have raised some issues, answered some questions & provided you with some actionable information during the hour. We hope that you will realise that network & data security is not something that just large corporations & financial institutions have to think about. We hope that we would have introduced you to a possible solution to some of your security threats. And finally, we hope that you serve us tea & biscuits while we give you this consultation. Oops. This was supposed to be FREE. OK so maybe it’s not. Or actually, finally, we hope that based on what you have seen & heard, you will think more about security and perhaps give us a call.

Q: What will this hour look like?
A: During this hour, one of our security experts will:

• Start by talking with you and establishing a security baseline. This involves talking about your data sensitivity, your risk-sensitivity, your core security requirements, and your current security practices & infrastructure.
• Carry out a baseline analysis of your existing security infrastructure & practices, and identify any issues present, including issues relating to:
  • Data: compromise & loss
  • Data: Virus & spyware protection
  • Data: disaster planning
  • E-mail: security including AV, phishing & spam
  • Systems: Patch management
  • Network: Firewalls

• Talk to your in order to assess your sensitivity to various possible scenarios including:

  • Data compromised (confidential)
  • Data compromised (non-confidential)
  • Data unavailable (temporary)
  • Data loss (permanent)
• Ask you to try and assign a business value to any of the potential issues above
• Briefly introduce you to some “true security” solutions, and offer any advice that you can implement immediately in order to improve the security of your data & network.
