Security Assurance
Our security solutions identify vulnerabilities, provide expert remediation, manually verify every fix, and deliver audit-ready evidence. From security testing and remediation to continuous monitoring, we help protect your business with proven, reliable, and compliant cybersecurity solutions.
Verified the same way it was found, by the person who found it.
Found, fixed, verified, and open-with-reason. Signed off.
Custom rules and decoders written for your estate, not a stock ruleset.

Why this is different
Most security assessment services end with a vulnerability report, leaving your team to handle remediation alone. Our security solutions go further by providing expert remediation, manual retesting, audit-ready evidence, and continuous security monitoring. Every finding is validated, every fix is verified, and every engagement delivers measurable security outcomes you can trust.
Key deliveries
Get clear, actionable security deliverables for every engagement, including technical findings, remediation plans, executive summaries, retest reports, and audit-ready evidence.
What is in scope, what is explicitly out, testing windows, escalation contacts, and what we do if we find something critical mid-test.
Each finding with reproduction steps, evidence, affected assets, and severity ranked against your business context rather than a raw score.
Specific fixes, sequenced by risk reduced per unit of effort, with compensating controls where a patch is unavailable or cannot be applied yet.
Two pages for the people who sign off budget — what the risk is, what it would cost you, and what we recommend doing first.
Every finding tested again. Resolved, or reopened with what is still wrong. Not a re-scan — the same method that found it.
Found, fixed, verified, and open-with-documented-reason, with accepted-risk sign-off and the evidence behind each closure.
The differentiator
A finding is not considered closed simply because remediation is reported. Our security remediation services include manual retesting to verify that the original vulnerability has been resolved. Failed retests are reopened, while verified findings receive documented closure evidence for stronger security assurance and audit readiness.

Services
Each is scoped on its own. Each feeds the same closure discipline.
| Service | What it covers | What changes |
|---|---|---|
| Closure validation | Every finding retested by hand and formally closed or reopened, with an audit-ready evidence pack. | You can prove remediation, not just claim it |
| Penetration testing | External, internal and assumed-breach, cloud configuration, wireless and phishing — plus custom-built applications, white box where source is available. | Exposure quantified and reproducible |
| Vulnerability assessment | Validated findings with false positives removed and severity re-ranked in business context. | A short real list instead of a long noisy one |
| Remediation advisory | Specific fixes for your stack, sequenced by risk reduced per unit of effort, with compensating controls where patching is not possible. | Your team knows what to do Monday morning |
| SOC monitoring | Built and run on Wazuh, with custom rules, decoders and active-response scripts written for your estate. Alerting with on-call escalation; staffed 24x7 available separately. | Detection to containment in hours, not weeks |
| Annual programme | Quarterly assessment, two penetration tests, a retest each cycle, drift monitoring and monthly reporting. A duration choice, not a tier. | Posture trends down instead of resetting |
| Configuration audit | CIS benchmark review across hosts, hypervisors and cloud accounts, with every accepted deviation documented and justified. | Hardening you can evidence, drift you can see |
| Access & privilege review | Account sprawl, orphaned credentials, privilege creep, shared accounts and MFA gaps across directory and cloud. | Leavers actually gone, admins actually few |
| DR & backup validation | We restore your backups and time the restore against your stated RPO and RTO. Ransomware resilience and backup immutability included. | A recovery time measured, not assumed |
| Compliance readiness | Gap analysis and evidence assembly for ISO 27001, SOC 2, PCI DSS, GDPR and HIPAA. We prepare you; we do not certify you. | You enter the audit knowing the gaps |
| Incident response retainer | Terms, contacts and containment authority agreed in advance, so nobody negotiates scope during an incident. | Response starts in minutes, not after a PO |
From finding to fixing
Access reviews and configuration audits keep surfacing the same exposure: data walking out on endpoints. USB copies, files cached on laptops, departments reading each other’s shares, leavers whose access was never fully removed. Assurance work finds it — and then most organisations discover the fix means licensing a third-party endpoint suite, per seat, forever.
So we built the fix. MCloud turns the Active Directory you already own into a managed desktop — controlling what leaves the machine, what runs on it and what each user can reach. It has been running across a national contractor’s regional offices and project sites for over a year, at more than a thousand users.
MCloud is a product in its own right and is sold separately.
Scope
By our security testing team and specialist partners, under MDCS scoping and validation. We scope it, we validate the findings, and we own the closure.
Continuous automated monitoring with alerting and on-call escalation. Dedicated staffed 24x7 exists as a separate scoped service — the two are priced and scoped separately.
We do not certify compliance — no consultancy can. We prepare the evidence and close the gaps; an accredited body issues the certificate.

We find it, we tell you how to fix it,then we prove it is fixed.
