Encase your devices
in a impenetrable digital shell

Device hardening is crucial because it significantly improves the security capability of devices, reducing the likelihood of successful cyber attacks.

By minimising vulnerabilities and unauthorised access points, device hardening enhances overall system resilience and safeguards sensitive data.

Security Device Hardening

In today’s interconnected world, cyber threats are more sophisticated than ever. A key aspect of ensuring you don’t fall victim to an attack is to make sure your devices are locked down and impenetrable to criminals. Our Security Device Hardening service includes:

Rigorous security assessments
Customised Hardening Strategies
Proactive Threat Mitigation
Regulatory compliance assurance
Continuous monitoring & updates
Multi-factor Authentication (MFA)
Network Segmentation
Regular Security Audits following implementation

How Security Device Hardening works

Assess

Our team of skilled cyber security experts conducts comprehensive security assessments to identify vulnerabilities within your devices and network. We meticulously analyse potential entry points that cyber criminals might exploit.

Customise

Our experts develop tailored device hardening strategies that align with your organisation’s specific needs and industry best practices. This ensures that your security measures are robust and appropriate.

Mitigate

By anticipating potential threats, we proactively implement measures that prevent attacks before they even happen. Our device hardening services focus on eliminating vulnerabilities and strengthening your defences.

Monitor

Cyber threats are dynamic, so your protection should be too. We provide continuous monitoring and updates to keep your security measures up-to-date and capable of defending against emerging threats.

Audit

Our commitment doesn’t stop at implementation. We conduct regular security audits to assess the effectiveness of the hardening measures and identify any new vulnerabilities that may have emerged.

FAQ

What is Network Segmentation?

We employ network segmentation to isolate critical systems from less secure areas, minimising the potential spread of attacks. This approach limits the impact of breaches and enhances your overall security posture.

What’s the difference between device hardening and patching?

Hardening prevents vulnerabilities, while patching addresses existing ones. Device hardening strengthens security by configuring devices to reduce vulnerabilities, while patching involves applying updates to fix known vulnerabilities in software and systems.

How frequently should security device hardening be performed?

Security device hardening should be performed regularly, ideally as part of a continuous monitoring and maintenance process, to ensure that devices remain protected against emerging threats and vulnerabilities.

What are the best practices for security device hardening?

Some of the best practices for security device hardening include using strong passwords and encryption, restricting access to administrative interfaces, implementing role-based access controls, keeping firmware and software up to date, disabling unused ports and services, and logging and monitoring device activity.

Will security device hardening impact our network performance?

While security device hardening may introduce some overhead due to additional security measures, such as encryption and access controls, the impact on network performance is typically minimal compared to the benefits gained in terms of improved security and risk reduction.

How can I assess the effectiveness of security device hardening?

The best ways of assessing effectiveness are through regular security audits, vulnerability assessments, penetration testing, and monitoring of security metrics such as incident response times, detection rates, and compliance with security policies and standards.
