CYBER SECURITY AUDIT · LONDON
Sereno provides cyber security audit services in London to help businesses understand their current cyber security posture.
Our cyber security audit reviews the security measures already in place and highlights areas that may leave your organisation exposed to cyber threats. You receive detailed findings and practical recommendations to strengthen your security.
WHY ASSESSING CYBER RISK MATTERS
A cyber security audit gives you a clear view of how well your current protections are working and where attention may be needed, helping you prioritise improvements based on actual cyber risks.
A comprehensive security audit can identify weaknesses in existing security controls that may affect systems, devices and data security, such as excessive user access, unsupported software, missing security updates, weak authentication settings or devices that are not configured securely.
Finding security gaps early gives you time to fix them before they cause disruption or put business data at risk. Regular reviews also help you keep protection up to date as your systems and working practices change.
If you are planning to achieve Cyber Essentials or Cyber Essentials Plus certification, an audit can help you understand where your current setup falls short of the relevant requirements.
Understanding your cyber security posture makes it easier to decide which improvements should come first and where additional cyber security services may provide the most value.
OUR IT SECURITY AUDIT SERVICES
Our cyber security audit service provides a comprehensive assessment of the areas that affect day-to-day business security.
WHEN A SECURITY REVIEW MAKES SENSE
Cyber security audit services are useful whenever there has been a significant change to your IT environment, or when you want a clearer view of current risk.
CYBER SECURITY AUDIT IN LONDON · OUR AUDIT PROCESS
Sereno follows an established process to understand your current setup, assess the risks and provide recommendations for improvement.
We start by understanding your IT environment and agreeing which systems, devices, accounts and cloud services need to be reviewed.
Our team examines the controls and configurations already in place, looking for security weaknesses that could leave systems or data exposed.
We review the issues identified during the audit and consider which ones pose the greatest concern for your business. The findings are then prioritised so you know what should be addressed first.
You receive a detailed report that explains the findings and recommended actions in simple terms. If changes are needed, Sereno’s security experts can assist with their implementation.

REVIEWING NETWORK SECURITY
If you need a closer look at your network environment, Sereno can carry out a more focused review of the controls protecting your infrastructure. This can include firewalls, remote access, network configuration and other security measures that affect how systems and users connect. The aim is to identify gaps, reduce exposure and strengthen your organisation's security.
TURNING FINDINGS INTO ACTION
An audit can show where improvements are needed, but some businesses also need guidance on what to do next. Our experienced consultants can help you prioritise changes and plan practical improvements based on how your business operates.
WHY OUR CYBER SECURITY AUDIT SERVICES
Sereno works across networks, devices, cloud platforms and user access, so the audit is considered in the context of your wider IT setup.
The findings are explained clearly and prioritised according to their importance. You receive a comprehensive report with recommendations that are realistic for your business.
If the audit identifies areas that need improvement, Sereno can help put those changes in place through our cyber security services and managed security support.
We help London businesses prepare for Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus, so our team has practical experience of the controls these schemes require and the common gaps that prevent businesses from being ready for assessment.

CloudTango Review
A cyber security audit helps you understand where your current protections may be falling short before weaknesses lead to disruption or a security breach. A comprehensive review also gives you a basis for deciding which improvements should come first, helping strengthen cyber resilience as your business and IT environment develop.
The tools used depend on the scope of the audit and the systems being reviewed. The process may combine technical checks with a manual review of configurations, access controls, devices, networks and cloud services.
Start by making sure the auditor has accurate information about systems, devices, cloud services, user accounts and current security policies. It is also useful to document any recent changes or known concerns in advance so the review can focus on the areas most relevant to your business.
You come away with a clear picture of the weaknesses found, their level of priority and the steps recommended to address them, which may include changes to access, configuration, patching, backup and disaster recovery arrangements, or other security controls.
