Endpoints—laptops, desktops, mobile devices, and servers—are the most common entry points for cyberattacks, including ransomware, phishing, and zero-day exploits. A misconfigured endpoint can compromise entire networks and sensitive data.
At CyberHQ, we conduct a comprehensive Endpoint Security Configuration Audit to identify weaknesses, enforce best security practices, and ensure compliance with industry standards.
Our Endpoint Security Audit Process
1. OS & Software Hardening
We assess your endpoints against CIS Benchmarks, NIST, and ISO 27001 guidelines.
✅ Patch Management – Ensuring OS and third-party software are up to date.
✅ Unnecessary Services & Applications – Disabling unused features to reduce attack surface.
✅ Application Whitelisting & Blacklisting – Restricting unapproved software.
✅ Secure Boot & BIOS/UEFI Protections – Preventing unauthorized firmware tampering.
Supported OS: Windows, macOS, Linux (Ubuntu, CentOS, RHEL)
2. Endpoint Access & Identity Security
We analyze how users access endpoints to prevent unauthorized logins and privilege escalation.
✅ User Account Control (UAC) & Least Privilege Review – Limiting admin access.
✅ Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) – Enforcing MFA for critical accounts.
✅ Password Policies & Credential Protection – Ensuring strong passwords and Windows Credential Guard.
✅ Remote Desktop & SSH Security – Securing RDP, SSH, and VPN configurations.
3. Endpoint Detection & Response (EDR) Review
We evaluate your endpoint security tools for threat detection and real-time protection.
✅ Antivirus & EDR/XDR Effectiveness – Checking AV signatures, heuristics, and behavioral analysis.
✅ Logging & SIEM Integration – Ensuring event logs are collected for security monitoring.
✅ USB & External Device Control – Blocking unauthorized removable media access.
✅ Incident Response Readiness – Verifying that alerting & automated responses are enabled.
4. Data Protection & Compliance
We check endpoint policies for data loss prevention (DLP) and regulatory compliance.
✅ Disk Encryption (BitLocker, FileVault, LUKS) – Ensuring full-disk encryption is enabled.
✅ USB & File Transfer Restrictions – Preventing unauthorized data exfiltration.
✅ Cloud Storage Security – Securing OneDrive, Google Drive, Dropbox configurations.
✅ Compliance Readiness – Ensuring endpoints meet PCI-DSS, HIPAA, GDPR, and ISO 27001 requirements.
