How We Work: Discovery, Alignment, Action
Our methodology starts with a targeted discovery phase to map assets and reveal exposure across environments.
Discovery: asset mapping, access review, and exposure identification
We run focused scans, system mapping, and stakeholder interviews to produce an accurate inventory. This step surfaces misconfigurations, exposed services, and weak access paths across cloud and on‑prem resources.
Alignment: translate findings to business risk and framework mapping
Technical findings are validated with stakeholders so critical business processes inform prioritization. We then map each finding to compliance requirements (PDPA/ISO/CSA) and quantify business risk.
Action: prioritized remediation roadmap and executive-friendly reporting
We deliver a clear remediation roadmap with budget guidance, owners, and timelines. The executive report frames recommendations as procurement-ready items and highlights data‑centric controls such as encryption, retention, and DLP.
- Measurement: defined KPIs and milestones so your team can show progress and control effectiveness.
- Handover: collaborative sessions and briefings to equip operations for sustained improvement.
- Continuous improvement: follow-up assessments and monitoring to close residual gaps.
This approach balances technical depth with governance, turning findings into actionable plans that support ongoing cybersecurity and a defensible security audit posture.
Go Deeper with Penetration Testing (VAPT)
To validate whether reported weaknesses are exploitable, we schedule targeted penetration testing under controlled conditions. This step proves whether findings become real attack paths and exposes lateral movement opportunities.
When to add VAPT: after closing critical hygiene gaps and applying recommended fixes from the audit. We then simulate adversary tactics to confirm exploitability and chained flaws.
What our testing covers
- Focused scope: assets with the highest business impact, keeping cost contained while maximizing insight.
- Adversary simulation: we chain misconfigurations, weak credentials, and app flaws to emulate real attacks.
- Application tests: targeted checks for XSS, RCE, and injection vulnerabilities discovered during prior reviews.
- Retesting: we confirm remediation removes exploitable conditions rather than just documenting fixes.
CREST partners and reporting
We partner with CREST‑certified teams for deep, safe execution and procurement‑grade deliverables. Reports include reproduction steps, risk ratings, and tactical fixes that dev teams can act on quickly.
Our goal: provide end‑to‑end visibility so leaders can fund remediation with confidence and strengthen overall cybersecurity posture.
Regulatory and Standards Mapping for Singapore and Beyond
