Testing proves you Secure Important Data   

"You need to know that your investment in technology is protecting you from data losses and public breaches."  

Business partners, clients, and regulators require that you regularly test your websites, networks, and devices for known vulnerabilities and misconfigurations.    You test to ensure I/T service providers are diligent, to prioritize future upgrades, and for simple peace of mind.   If you don't find the vulnerabilities in your websites and networks, outsiders will. 

Working Security Testing Services include:

• Scanning your networks, computers, and websites for vulnerabilities
• Evaluating your wireless networks for insecure configurations
• Penetration testing critical application and devices
• Validating staff awareness through Social Engineering techniques
• Delivering a risk prioritized plan to address vulnerabilities in the right order
• Working with your teams to close issues and document success

Working Security delivers vulnerability reports, ethical hacking services, and penetration tests.   We provide testing services on-site at your business and remotely by virtual private network (VPN) connection.   All test services come with detailed technical results, prioritized to allow immediate mitigation of identified weaknesses.   Our reports and matching action plans allow you to demonstrate a responsible standard of care for the data you hold for partners, clients, and customers.

Identify and Protect what's Important

"Risk assessment is the foundation of Information Security.  As the first step in almost every information security compliance and regulatory standard, organization must not ignore this vital step."    

Identifying information assets and the real threats to those assets allows you to make responsible decisions about protecting them.   Without this foundation, you risk spending too much on the wrong solutions to protect the wrong assets.   When you get it right, you demonstrate responsible care in protecting the information of your customers and your business.

Risk assessment isn't a marketing give-away and we don't pad our assessments with hardware and software recommendations we hope to sell. 

Working Security conducts risk assessments using National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) guidelines consistent with the complexity of your business and in compliance with industry standards like HIPAA.  

With a Working Security Risk Assessment, you'll be able to make deliberate and prioritized changes to your computing policies and infrastructure that demonstrate due diligence in protecting information.  We provide vendor neutral and unbiased assessments of your technology and how it mitigates business risk.
