Keeping Sensitive Data Safe

Protecting sensitive data has become a top priority for virtually all businesses. MSA Investigations can help companies keep their data safe from hackers and other digital threats, and identify vulnerabilities in the underlying IT infrastructure.

  • Stage 1: Penetration Test

    This offers a view of the threats faced by the organization from outside. Our MSA Penetration Test Professionals take time to develop a cyber-profile of the company, and then interact directly with the systems to identify vulnerabilities. In this regard, we assume the role of an outsider attempting to penetrate a company's IT defenses, including any vulnerabilities in procedures and staff.

  • Stage 2: IT Security Assessment

    This step is where MSA identifies internal weaknesses from within a company's network. We examine the network’s vulnerabilities to detect evidence of employee wrongdoing or carelessness.  Additionally, a review of company policy can be conducted to identify weaknesses in processes and procedures.

Why MSA for Cyber Security?
