Understand the Real State of Your Security - Before an Attacker Does
IT Security Audit – a comprehensive assessment of technical controls, processes, and compliance with NIS2, DORA, and ISO 27001. Facts instead of assumptions.
Many organizations only discover security gaps after an incident occurs. An IT security audit allows you to stay ahead of threats – providing leadership with a clear view of the organization’s security posture and actionable remediation priorities. Increasingly, regular audits are not just best practice, but a regulatory requirement.
What Is IT Security Audit?
An IT security audit is a systematic and independent evaluation of an organization’s technical safeguards, processes, and security policies. Unlike day-to-day monitoring, an audit provides a holistic, cross-sectional view – highlighting not only what is not working, but also why it is happening and how to fix it effectively.
Audit results are not an end in themselves – they form the foundation for informed risk management and remediation planning. Every audit concludes with clear, actionable recommendations that can be implemented immediately or in phases, depending on organizational priorities.
Identify Vulnerabilities Before Others Do
Depending on your organization’s needs and maturity level, an audit can be conducted as a one-time service, a recurring engagement, or an ongoing component of your security management program – ensuring your IT protection keeps pace with an evolving threat landscape.

Why Conduct Security Audits Regularly?
Identify Vulnerabilities Before Others Do
IT environments evolve constantly – new systems, new employees, new threats. Controls that were sufficient a year ago may now contain critical vulnerabilities. Additionally, increasing regulatory requirements (NIS2, DORA, ISO 27001) demand regular verification of security posture.
Regular audits help you:
- Identify vulnerabilities before they are exploited - identification of vulnerabilities, misconfigurations and process weaknesses.
- Prioritize remediation efforts - focus resources where the risk is greatest.
- Meet regulatory requirements - NIS2, DORA, ISO 27001, GDPR, PCI-DSS.
- Build trust - with clients, partners, and regulators.
- Reduce the cost of incidents - audits are significantly less expensive than breach response.
Who Is an IT Security Audit For?
Security audits deliver the greatest value to organizations that:
- Operate under regulatory requirements – NIS2, DORA, ISO 27001, GDPR, PCI-DSS.
- Plan to achieve ISO 27001 or other certifications.
- Have experienced a security incident and need root cause analysis.
- Have implemented new IT systems and want to verify their security.
- Have not conducted an audit in over a year and need an updated risk assessment.
How Does a Security Audit Work?
We conduct audits through a structured and transparent process:
1. Scoping – defining systems, processes, and areas to be assessed based on your organization’s needs.
2. Data collection – analyzing documentation, system configurations, and existing security policies and procedures.
3. Assessment and analysis – identifying vulnerabilities, non-compliance issues, and risk areas against relevant standards and regulations.
4. Reporting – delivering a detailed report with findings, risk evaluation, and clear remediation recommendations.
5. Post-audit support – assisting with implementation of recommendations and preparation for certification or regulatory compliance.
