Service Overview
Endpoints, email systems, and identity infrastructure represent the primary attack surface for the majority of enterprise security incidents. Ransomware arrives via phishing. Credentials are stolen through endpoint malware. Identity misconfigurations enable attackers to move laterally and escalate privileges. These three domains — while technically distinct — are operationally interconnected and must be assessed together to understand the real exposure they create.
Our Endpoint, Email & Identity Security Assessment provides a comprehensive evaluation of the controls, configurations, and governance practices that protect your user devices, communication channels, and identity systems. We assess not just whether tools are deployed, but whether they are correctly configured, integrated, monitored, and operationally effective.
The assessment produces a prioritized, actionable findings report that gives security and IT leadership a clear understanding of endpoint and identity risk — and the specific steps needed to reduce it.
- Evaluate endpoint protection depth, email security effectiveness, and identity governance maturity
- Identify misconfigurations, coverage gaps, and integration weaknesses
- Provide a prioritised remediation roadmap across all three domains
Key Assessment Areas
Endpoint Protection Review
EDR deployment coverage, configuration quality, behavioral detection effectiveness, and integration with SIEM and response workflows.
Email Security Configuration
Anti-phishing, anti-spoofing (DMARC/DKIM/SPF), sandbox analysis, BEC controls, and mail platform security configuration review.
Identity Architecture Review
Active Directory, Entra ID, and directory services configuration — password policies, account governance, and privilege review.
MFA & Conditional Access
MFA coverage breadth, policy enforcement quality, conditional access rules, and authentication bypass risk assessment.
Privileged Identity Controls
Privileged account inventory, PAM tool maturity, just-in-time access controls, and admin credential exposure assessment.
Endpoint Monitoring & Response
Telemetry coverage, alert quality, response workflow integration, and containment capability readiness assessment.
Challenges We Help Solve
- EDR deployed but misconfigured — detections disabled, exclusions over-broad, telemetry incomplete
- Email security bypassed by sophisticated BEC, phishing, and domain impersonation attacks
- Weak DMARC/DKIM/SPF configuration enabling email spoofing of the corporate domain
- MFA not enforced for all users, applications, or privileged access paths
- Over-privileged domain accounts providing attackers with easy escalation paths
- Remote and BYOD endpoints operating outside policy and EDR management coverage
- No integration between endpoint telemetry and SIEM — alerts not actioned effectively
- Identity infrastructure with legacy protocols (NTLM, NTLMv1) still active and exploitable
