What an IT audit covers
What is an IT audit, and what does it cover?
An IT audit examines the systems your business depends on and how they're managed. We focus on the questions you need answered, covering areas such as:
- Devices The condition, support status and update arrangements for laptops, desktops, servers and mobile devices.
- Microsoft 365 and cloud Licensing, security settings, account access and backup arrangements.
- Security Device and email protection, access controls and gaps against relevant requirements.
- Backups Backup coverage, protection from the live environment and evidence of recovery testing.
- Network and connectivity Firewalls, Wi-Fi, remote access and dependencies that could interrupt operations.
- Suppliers and contracts Service responsibilities, subscriptions and upcoming renewal decisions.
- Risks Findings prioritised by their likely business impact and the work needed to address them.
An IT health check gives you a more focused review of a specific concern. You'll know what we're checking and what the findings can tell you.
Three focused assessments
We also offer three paid, standalone assessments for businesses with a particular question to resolve.
- Security posture assessment Penetration testing, an email security review including DMARC, an external exposure check and an explanation of the findings.
- Cyber Essentials readiness assessment A review of policies, procedures, controls and infrastructure, with a readiness score and remediation roadmap.
- AI readiness assessment A review of how tools such as Copilot are used, the associated data and governance risks, and opportunities to improve working practices.

Cyber Essentials readiness assessment
A Cyber Essentials gap assessment compares your setup with the five control areas and identifies the work needed before assessment. We prepare you for the level you're working towards, whether that's basic certification or Plus.
