Are we really a target?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Business size alone does not determine cyber risk. Smaller companies still use email, payment systems, cloud platforms, customer data, employee accounts, and third-party vendors. Many common forms of cybercrime are automated or opportunistic, not aimed only at large enterprises. The useful question is what exposure your particular business has."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Is this a penetration test?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Not automatically. The engagement begins with a security-posture diagnostic. If deeper technical testing is appropriate, we define the scope and authorisation before any assessment activity begins. A penetration test should only be performed against systems the client owns or has explicit authorisation to test."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Will the assessment disrupt our systems?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"The initial diagnostic is designed to understand security posture without unnecessarily interfering with normal operations. If deeper testing is recommended, we agree on the scope, method, authorisation, and potential operational considerations before that work begins."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"We already have an IT provider. Why would we need this?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Your IT provider may already be doing valuable work. The diagnostic helps establish what is currently covered, what responsibilities sit elsewhere, and whether any meaningful gaps remain. The goal is not to replace a capable provider. It is to make sure assumptions about coverage match reality."}}]}</script>
