Cyber Security Risk Assessment Services
Protect What Matters Most
A cyber security risk assessment is a systematic process to identify, evaluate, and prioritise potential threats and vulnerabilities to an organisation’s IT systems and data. Sounds terrifying! But look on the bright side: your current MSP runs cyber reports regularly and gives you insight, right? Or maybe not. Most MSPs will look to give you a risk assessment to determine your cyber maturity level, then come back with a host of software packages designed to ‘keep your data safe’.
Well, Netbox Managed IT is a bit different. Yes, we offer the assessment service and give you a plan to help mitigate any risk—but threats don’t just ‘go away’. They are constant. So that’s why Netbox Managed IT provides you with a single pane of glass view of your network vulnerabilities, develops a plan with YOU to eliminate imminent risk, and then provides vulnerability software to keep the threat to a minimum for our entire engagement.
Don’t forget that more than 80% of cyber breaches happen because of human error, but don’t worry, we also speak to your staff to understand how they work! This is another personable service we offer as part of our risk assessment.
Identify Vulnerabilities
Understand where your organisation is most at risk, from outdated software to misconfigured systems and human errors.
Prevent Costly Breaches
A proactive approach to identifying and mitigating risks can save your business from the financial and reputational consequences of a data breach.

Demonstrate your data protection and security commitment, fostering trust with customers, partners, and stakeholders.
Endpoint Protection
Safeguard Your Business, One Device at a Time
Every device connected to your network—laptops, desktops, smartphones, tablets, and servers—represents a potential entry point for cyber threats.
Securing these endpoints is critical to maintaining the integrity of your business and protecting sensitive data. That’s where our Endpoint Protection Services come in, offering advanced solutions to detect, prevent, and respond to cyber security threats in real time.
Endpoints remain a major target for attackers and endpoint protection is your first line of defence. Our software combines static and behavioural detections to neutralize known and unknown threats.
Rising Cyber Threats
With cyber attacks becoming more targeted and sophisticated, every device on your network is a potential vulnerability. Endpoint protection fortifies these critical points of entry.
Increased Remote Work
As remote and hybrid work environments become the norm, ensuring endpoints’ security outside your office network is essential.
Business Continuity
Endpoint protection helps prevent downtime and disruptions caused by malware or cyberattacks, ensuring smooth operations.
Identity and Access Management
Control Access, Protect Your Business
Unauthorised access can lead to data breaches, compliance violations, and lost productivity. Identity and Access Management (IAM) is a framework of policies, technologies, and processes that ensures the right individuals have access to the right resources.
By managing user identities and access privileges across your organisation, IAM enhances security, simplifies user experiences, and streamlines IT management.
Our IAM services provide end-to-end solutions to secure your environment, safeguard sensitive data, and ensure compliance with industry regulations.
Strengthened Security
Protect sensitive data and critical systems by ensuring only authorised users can access them, reducing the risk of insider threats and external attacks.
Simplified User Access
Streamline employee, partner, and customer access by providing secure, single-sign-on (SSO) and role-based access controls.
Improved Risk Management
Monitor and manage access permissions to reduce the risk of accidental data exposure and enforce least-privilege principles.
Intrusion Detection & Response Services
Stay One Step Ahead of Cyber Threats
In addition to filtering incoming and outgoing traffic, organisations need to implement a solution to monitor network activity so that malicious activity does not go unnoticed. An intrusion Detection System (IDS) or Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) can make all the difference.
IDS vs IPS An IDS is a somewhat more basic solution than an IPS. The former will only monitor traffic and alert a system administrator when it notices something suspicious, while the latter will also try to block any malicious activity it registers.
An IDS or IPS solution should monitor traffic coming into the network and traffic within the network and must be carefully configured to avoid raising many false positives. Both solutions can come as a hardware device that needs to be physically connected to the network or as a software program.
Rapid Threat Detection
Identify malicious activities such as unauthorised access, malware, and network anomalies as soon as they occur.
Protection Against Evolving Threats
Stay ahead of the latest cyber threats with real-time updates and advanced detection methods powered by artificial intelligence and machine learning.
Reduced Financial Impact
By detecting and mitigating threats quickly, you can avoid the costly consequences of data breaches and system downtime.
Managed Detection and Response (MDR)
Managed Detection and Response (MDR) is a comprehensive cyber security solution that combines advanced tools, threat intelligence, and expert analysis to detect, investigate, and respond to cyber threats in real-time. Unlike traditional monitoring, MDR doesn’t just alert you to a problem—it provides a complete solution by containing threats, mitigating damage, and guiding recovery.
Our MDR services are tailored to your business needs, ensuring you’re always protected, even against the most sophisticated attacks. When a threat is detected, our service responds quickly to contain and mitigate the impact. This can include isolating affected systems, removing malware, and restoring normal operations.
Combat Advanced Threats
Modern cyber attacks such as ransomware, phishing, and zero-day exploits require advanced tools and expertise to detect and mitigate. MDR ensures you’re prepared to handle these threats.
Continuous Monitoring
Cyber attacks can happen anytime, often outside regular business hours. With MDR, your environment is monitored 24/7 by cyber security experts ready to respond instantly.
Cost-Effective Security
Building an in-house security operations centre (SOC) is costly and resource-intensive. MDR offers enterprise-grade security at a fraction of the cost.
Penetration Testing (PenTest)
Identify Vulnerabilities Before Attackers Do
At Netbox Managed IT, we help organisations solve the ongoing challenge of meeting compliance requirements, achieving security best practices, and researching multiple vendors to compare numerous factors to meet their needs.
Pentests are becoming a standard requirement for insurance companies and are considered best practices in cyber security policies. We can provide one-off or automated monthly/quarterly/annual testing to meet all your compliance needs.
Identify Weaknesses
Discover hidden vulnerabilities in your IT environment, including misconfigurations, outdated software, and insecure practices.
Mitigate Risks
Prevent breaches by addressing issues before attackers exploit them, minimising the risk of financial loss and reputational damage.
Gain Expert Guidance
Receive detailed reports and actionable recommendations from cyber security experts to strengthen your defences.
Professional Dark Web Monitoring
Protect Your Business from Hidden Threats
Dark web monitoring is emerging as a crucial element to a solidified and advanced cybersecurity strategy. Some MSPs, however, by default, think that the murmur around the Dark Web is just a fad and don’t take it too seriously. We are not one of those MSPs. Having a strategy and solution around Dark Web monitoring makes sense and is another arrow we need to have in our security quiver. Why?
First, starting in the Fall of 2018, email scams that leveraged stolen credentials to get users to pay an attacker started popping up. In these scams, the user would get an email listing one of their compromised passwords and then state that the attacker had information regarding their web surfing habits and associated videos that would be released if the user didn’t send money. Today hackers are working smarter, not harder.
Secondly, even with all the stories we hear about security threats and the bad things happening to companies, people still aren’t taking security seriously. Your employees are the most significant security risk to your organisation. If you’ve been in business for a while, you can probably recall when organisations didn’t take backups seriously and had a cavalier attitude toward protecting their data.
That’s where we are right now with security. People know that they should do it, but it never seems to become a priority—unless a security event happens, at which point it is way too late. Within many organisations, most breaches are not initially detected and may not be discovered until several months after the initial attack. According to the Cost of a Data Breach Report, the average time to identify and contain a data breach is 280 days (approximately 9 months).
Protect Sensitive Data
Prevent cyber criminals from exploiting stolen data, including passwords, financial information, and customer records.
Safeguard Your Reputation
Avoid the reputational damage associated with data breaches by acting swiftly on dark web intelligence.
Prevent Financial Loss
Detect and address issues such as stolen payment information, fraudulent activity, or intellectual property leaks.
Employee Security Awareness Training
Your First Line of Defense
Employees are almost always the number one critical element in a cyber security assessment. Nearly half of all office workers have had their data compromised at some point. And as if that wasn’t scary enough, the numbers only get more concerning from there.
Following an incident, a whopping 35% of office workers don’t change their passwords—a measure that can go a long way to preventing future information theft. And while at work, 49% of respondents admit clicking links sent to them by unknown senders.
We can provide security awareness training and ongoing tips to your workforce to ensure the hackers don’t have an easy into your company’s data.
Combat Sophisticated Threats
Cyber criminals constantly develop new tactics to deceive even the most cautious employees. Ongoing education keeps your team informed about the latest threats.
Strengthen Your Security Culture
When employees understand their role in cybersecurity, they become active participants in protecting your organisation, creating a culture of shared responsibility.
Reduce Costs Associated with Breaches
Preventing a breach through awareness training is far more cost-effective than dealing with the aftermath of an attack.
Vulnerability Management
Proactively Safeguard Your Organisation
Once your current risk state has been identified and addressed, it’s crucial to diligently maintain ongoing cyber hygiene. Our Vulnerability Management tool allows your customer to move beyond a ‘snapshot-in-time’ by automating routine scanning of their environment for future threats and vulnerabilities.
Findings are prioritized based on the type and impact of vulnerability and provide a clear visual understanding of which risks require immediate remediation. With ConnectWise Vulnerability Management, your clients maintain visibility of their cyber risk and are better informed about where incremental security investments will deliver the greatest results.
