Solution

Close the gaps that actually get exploited

Most organisations that suffer a breach were not defeated by a sophisticated adversary. The controls that would have stopped it were available and unconfigured.

We work through controls in order of what actually gets exploited: identity first, then endpoint posture, email security, patch discipline and backup recoverability.

We also report where effort should not go. A finding that costs a month to close and reduces real risk marginally is worth saying so about.

Priority order, and why

  • Multi-factor authentication and conditional access — closes the most common path, deployable in a controlled way quickly
  • Privileged account review — standing administrative access is the difference between an incident and a catastrophe
  • Endpoint compliance and patch visibility — you cannot fix what you cannot report on
  • Email attachment and link protection — still the most common initial vector
  • Backup recoverability, tested — an untested backup is a plan, not a capability
