Security assessments

Start with a clear baseline. Add the help you need.

We assess the systems and data your business depends on, explain the highest-priority gaps, and give your team a practical improvement plan. Add cloud, application, device, or recurring review when it changes the outcome.

The flagship assessment

Argus Ready security baseline.

Choose this when leadership needs a defensible answer to where the organization stands and the technical team needs an ordered plan.

Recommended starting point

Know where you stand.

We review external exposure, identity and access, data protection, patch and configuration health, and detection and response readiness. The assessment is sized around the systems most important to your organization.

Focused assessments

Go deeper where the risk or decision demands it.

Buy a focused review when you already know which system, release, account, or suspected weakness needs attention.

EXTERNAL EXPOSURE

Find what the internet can see

Choose this when: you have added domains, remote access, vendors, acquisitions, or cloud services and are unsure what is publicly reachable.

You receive an approved asset view, exposed-service findings, ownership questions, priority risks, and corrective actions.

WEB + API

Test a business-critical service

Choose this when: a website, portal, API, or customer application is being launched, changed, renewed, or questioned by a customer.

You receive validated findings, affected functions, business impact, safe reproduction details, and remediation guidance.

MOBILE + DEVICE

Review software before it ships

Choose this when: your business builds, buys, integrates, or depends on an Android app, iOS app, compiled application, device, or firmware image.

You receive security-relevant software identity, permissions, data-handling concerns, suspicious behavior, and follow-up recommendations.

CLOUD

Check high-impact cloud settings

Choose this when: an AWS environment has grown quickly, changed ownership, or needs an independent review before an audit or customer decision.

You receive a read-only inventory, high-risk access and network observations, coverage limits, and prioritized corrections.

VALIDATION

Confirm whether a concern is real

Choose this when: a scanner, vendor, insurer, customer, or internal review raised an issue whose urgency or practical impact is uncertain.

You receive a controlled validation result, supporting evidence, impact assessment, and a clear next action.

RETEST

Prove the fix worked

Choose this when: your team completed remediation and needs an independent closure record for leadership, a customer, insurer, or audit file.

You receive a before-and-after result, remaining risk, closure evidence, and an updated posture summary where applicable.

Choose the engagement

Three clear buying paths.

Each proposal states what is included, who needs to participate, what you will receive, the schedule, and the fixed fee before work begins.

BaselineArgus Ready

A complete starting picture

Best when the organization has never had an independent assessment, the environment has changed, or leadership needs priorities for planning, insurance, or customer conversations.

Five-area score + action plan
FocusedArgus Verify

One important system or question

Best when a specific application, cloud account, device, public surface, reported issue, or completed fix needs specialist review.

Defined target + technical answer
RecurringArgus Watch

Keep the baseline useful

Best when systems change regularly and leadership wants scheduled exposure review, remediation tracking, retesting, and trend reporting.

Monthly or quarterly review
01

What sets the price

The number and type of systems, assessment depth, access required, operating constraints, reporting needs, and whether retesting is included.

02

What the proposal states

The included systems, permitted methods, customer responsibilities, schedule, deliverables, exclusions, retest terms, and total fixed fee.

03

What does not happen

Additional testing, systems, or charges are not added without a written scope change agreed by both sides.

04

Why there is no universal price

A single application review and a multi-location business baseline require different access, evidence, and effort. A clear fixed proposal is more useful than a misleading package price.

Common questions

What buyers usually want to know.

Will you start testing when I submit the form?

No. The first step is a conversation. Any security testing requires a separate written scope and authorization from the organization that owns or controls the systems.

Do we receive both business and technical detail?

Yes. Baseline work includes a concise leadership view and a technical findings register. Focused reviews state their exact deliverables in the proposal.

Can you help after the report?

Yes. Remediation planning, implementation support where appropriate, and post-fix verification can be included or added as a separate engagement.

Is the score a certification?

No. It is a dated summary of the agreed scope across five security areas. It supports decisions but does not replace a required legal, regulatory, or framework-specific audit.

Can we buy one focused assessment?

Yes. Argus Ready is the recommended baseline, but a known application, cloud, device, exposure, validation, or retest need can be scoped directly.

Is ongoing review a 24/7 SOC?

No. Argus Watch is a scheduled exposure, remediation, and verification service. It does not claim continuous endpoint monitoring or emergency incident response.

Talk through your priorities

Start with the smallest assessment that answers the question.

Tell us what the business depends on, what changed, and what outcome you need. We will recommend a practical scope.
