When did you last audit your security?

If you have to think about it for more than 3 seconds, it was probably too long ago.

We have conducted over 50 security audits in sectors where a failure isn't an inconvenience — it's a crisis. National security, critical infrastructure, public administration.

What we see again and again

  • Pentesting that hasn't been repeated in over 2 years
  • Inherited cloud configurations that nobody has reviewed
  • Incident response plans that exist only as a forgotten PDF

Cybersecurity is not a one-off project. It's a continuous process. And the difference between being protected and believing you're protected is, in many cases, a timely audit.

A perspective most consultancies don't have

At AP Interactive we don't just audit — we operate our own infrastructure. That gives us a perspective few consultancies have: we know what it means to defend critical systems because we manage them every day.

When we identify a vulnerability, we're not reading from a checklist. We're applying the same operational discipline we use to keep our own network running.

Certified forensic experts on staff

We also have judicial expert witnesses certified by PETEC on our team. If an incident reaches the courts, we're also prepared to support you through the legal process with forensic analysis and digital evidence with judicial validity.

This matters more than it used to. Regulators and courts increasingly require technical evidence to meet specific standards of rigour and chain-of-custody. Having the right experts from the start can make the difference between a manageable incident and a protracted legal dispute.

What a security audit actually involves

A typical engagement with us covers:

  • External perimeter scan — what's visible to an attacker from the internet
  • Internal network assessment — segmentation, access controls, lateral movement risks
  • Credential and access review — who has access to what
  • Phishing simulation — testing real staff response
  • Prioritised remediation report — practical actions, not a generic finding dump

If it's been more than 6 months since you reviewed your security posture, it might be time.
