Information Security
Find material security weaknesses, improve the controls around people and systems, and prepare the organisation to contain and recover from an incident.
Assess, improve and prepare
The assignment may focus on one control area or connect risk assessment, remediation and recovery into a single programme.
01Security and risk assessments
Review systems, identities, information and working practices, then rank findings by likely impact and exposure.
02Identity and infrastructure protection
Improve authentication, permissions, endpoint configuration, network controls, cloud settings, email protection and administrative access.
03Data, backup and recovery
Apply appropriate encryption and access, verify backup coverage and test whether critical information and services can be restored.
04Monitoring and incident readiness
Define useful alerts, investigation access, escalation contacts, containment actions, remediation and recovery procedures.
05Governance and staff practices
Produce policies, evidence and training that reflect the organisation’s systems, responsibilities and stated requirements.
Security work with a verifiable result
Each example produces evidence: corrected configuration, closed findings, tested recovery or an exercised response plan.
Assessment followed by remediation
Examine the environment, agree which findings matter, assign actions and verify that the selected controls have been improved.
Identity and access clean-up
Review accounts, privileges, authentication and joiner-mover-leaver processes, then remove avoidable access and document administration.
Incident and recovery exercise
Walk through a realistic scenario, test communications and restoration, record failures and update the response plan.
Secure a planned technology release
Add security requirements, access controls, testing, logging and recovery to an infrastructure or software project before launch.
Move from assumptions to tested controls
Decisions are based on the real environment, and improvements are checked before they are treated as complete.
- 01
Identify what matters
Establish the critical services, information, identities, suppliers and credible threats.
- 02
Test the current controls
Gather evidence from configurations and working practices rather than relying on policy statements alone.
- 03
Correct the weaknesses
Implement the selected technical and procedural changes and verify the result.
- 04
Exercise the response
Confirm who detects, decides, communicates, contains and restores when an incident occurs.
Security across technology and industry
Security is often delivered alongside infrastructure, networks or software and adapted to the information and operations involved.
What to establish before security work begins
Answers about assessments, compliance support, project integration and incident services.
Can an engagement begin with an independent assessment?
Yes. An assessment can end with prioritised findings and a remediation plan, whether Suracor or another team completes the follow-on work.
Can you help with compliance requirements?
Suracor can implement technical controls and produce evidence against agreed requirements. This does not represent certification, legal advice or regulatory authorisation.
Can security be included in another project?
Yes. Identity, configuration, testing, logging, backup and recovery can be built into infrastructure, workplace, hosting and software assignments.
Do you provide incident response services?
Readiness, investigation support, containment, remediation and recovery can be scoped for named systems and agreed escalation contacts.
Address a security risk before it becomes an incident
Describe the affected systems, the evidence already available and any deadline created by an audit, change programme or recent event.
