Cybersecurity should be prioritised from the onset, using a defence-in-depth approach. This means that a range of security controls should be selected and implemented to protect systems and data from a variety of potential threats. Such an approach enhances resilience and minimises the impact of any security breach.
Cyber security reviews are conducted to identify existing vulnerabilities in an organisation’s information systems. These vulnerabilities could be found in hardware, software, or custom-developed applications. They may include flaws that provide opportunities for cyber criminals to compromise the confidentiality, integrity, or availability of data and services on an IT system.
Security Review Services
Secure System Review
Developing secure systems is fundamental to protecting the users of your products. When we conduct secure system reviews, we will identify existing vulnerabilities and provide insight into how they manifested, demonstrating strategies and techniques to avoid new vulnerabilities in the future. A secure system review can involve code reviews that are performed by software security experts. Secure code reviews are designed to identify vulnerabilities that could allow cyber criminals to compromise an organisation’s information systems, staff or customers. Another key focus of secure system reviews is DevSecOps, which is an approach to removing vulnerabilities from systems throughout the development life cycle. Through secure system reviews, organisations will be able to identify their existing vulnerabilities and take steps towards securing their applications.
Cloud Configuration Review
If you are planning to or already utilise cloud services, it’s crucial to understand the full spectrum of threats in this landscape.
We can help to accelerate the process of identifying any gaps in your security posture, proactively mitigate risks, and provide advice on following best practices while managing end to end capabilities.
Cloud configuration penetration tests will help determine vulnerabilities within your cloud infrastructure, which may arise due to misconfiguration or not following security best practices. Anchoram strives to strike a balance between functionality and security – understanding that functionality and security sometimes come at the cost of one another.
We ensure all our tests are designed to work within your environment and provide the most realistic assessment possible, while also providing advice on how to fix any vulnerabilities discovered during testing.
Pre-emptive Threat Intelligence Assessment (PTIA)
Anchoram Consulting’s Pre-emptive Threat Intelligence Assessment (PTIA) is focused on addressing an organisation’s security issues from a brand and reputation management perspective. Our unique PTIA methodology consists of a combination of OSINT, automated digital footprint enumeration and manual investigation methods.
Our PTIA methodologies adopt a manual approach and are based on practical experience without relying solely on automated scanning tools. Manual investigation techniques return far more accurate results and far less false positives than automated scanning tools. Where automated tools are used, all results will be manually validated.

Cyber Security Services
Operational Technologies like ICS and IoT are both highly specialised and highly targeted, so managing the threats to these systems is essential.
Attack simulations are designed to test the strength of your security mechanisms by simulating an attack on your infrastructure.
Security reviews identify existing vulnerabilities and provide insight into how they may have manifested, as well as determining strategies and techniques to avoid future vulnerabilities.
Penetration testing provides assurance that systems and their respective security controls are working as intended, and are not susceptible to exploitation.
