What is a cybersecurity assessment?

It is a structured evaluation of the company's security that considers the business context, existing controls and the references agreed for the project. Taura combines interviews, evidence review and technical checks to identify gaps and build a prioritized action plan.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Which frameworks do you use?

References are chosen to fit the project's goals. We usually combine NIST CSF, CIS Controls and ISO/IEC 27001, with documented criteria for interpreting maturity and gaps.

What is the difference between an assessment and a pentest?

An assessment looks at how security is organized as a whole: controls, processes and practices. A pentest investigates, in depth, whether specific systems can be exploited. Many companies use the assessment to decide where the pentest should start.

Can the report be used with customers and auditors?

It helps answer security questionnaires and vendor assessments, and prepare for audits. Acceptance depends on who is asking and on the scope assessed, and an assessment is not a certification.
