Endpoint Security Assessment for UK Businesses
Find and fix weak configurations, missing protections and exploitable gaps across laptops, desktops, servers and mobile devices before attackers use them as a way in.
Our certified engineers test your endpoint defences against real attacker techniques and CIS benchmarks to give you a clear, prioritised remediation plan.

About Endpoint Security
Why structured, proactive security testing is essential for your organization
Definition & Approach
An endpoint security assessment reviews how well your devices are protected, configured and monitored. We test your antivirus and EDR tools, patching, encryption, hardening and user privileges against CIS Benchmarks and real attack techniques.
- EDR and antivirus effectiveness testing
- Hardening, patching and encryption review
- Privilege and local admin analysis
Business Urgency
Endpoints are the most common way in for ransomware and phishing-led attacks, and remote working has widened the attack surface. Strong endpoint controls limit how far an attacker can get from a single compromised device.
Holistic Protection Across Every Attack Surface
Our testing methodologies evaluate entry points, authentication mechanisms, network boundaries, and business logic.
What our endpoint security assessment covers
Windows, macOS, Linux and mobile devices, reviewed from the build to the security tooling.
EDR & Antivirus Effectiveness
Test whether your endpoint protection detects and blocks real malware and attacker behaviour.
Hardening & Configuration Review
Review device builds against CIS Benchmarks and secure configuration standards.
Patch & Vulnerability Assessment
Identify missing operating system and third-party application patches.
Privilege & Access Review
Find local administrator rights, weak credentials and privilege escalation paths.
Encryption & Data Protection
Check disk encryption, removable media controls and data loss protection on devices.
Mobile & Remote Device Security
Review mobile device management, BYOD controls and remote access security.
