About Service

Network Security Assessment Overview

Your network carries everything — applications, user activity, file transfers, cloud traffic, and remote access. If it’s not configured correctly or monitored, attackers can move through internal systems undetected. Misconfigured firewalls, weak rules, outdated devices, and unmonitored traffic are common entry points in many organizations.

A Network Security Assessment provides a clear picture of your vulnerabilities and how to fix them. CyberXSoft helps businesses review their internal and external networks, analyze traffic patterns, identify risky configurations, and provide practical recommendations that improve security without complicating operations.

Our goal is simple: help you understand your network clearly so you can secure it effectively.

What Our Network Security Assessment Includes

Firewall & Access Control Review

We check whether firewalls and access rules are correctly configured and aligned with your business needs.
What’s included:

Rule review and cleanup
Open port identification
Internal and external access mapping

Validation of allowed services

IDS/IPS & Threat Visibility Check

We assess how well your systems detect suspicious traffic.
What’s included:

IDS/IPS rule analysis
Alert quality review
Evasion risk checks

Detection gap identification

Network Device Configuration Review

Routers, switches, and access points often have overlooked vulnerabilities.
What’s included:

Firmware and patch checks
Weak configuration review
Default settings or accounts detection
Segmentation analysis

Traffic & Behavior Analysis

We study network activity to identify unusual or high-risk patterns.
What’s included:

Traffic flow mapping
Rogue device detection
Anomalous behavior review
Bandwidth or protocol misuse

External Exposure Review

We check what parts of your network are visible to the internet.
What’s included:

Public-facing system identification
Vulnerability findings
SSL/TLS configuration checks
Shadow IT detection

Summary Report & Recommendations

You get clear, simple action steps — not complex technical reports.
What’s included:

Priority-based recommendations
High-risk findings summary
Quick-fix items
Long-term improvement plan

Tools Commonly Used in Network Security Assessments

Nmap (network scanning & exposure mapping)
Nessus / Qualys (vulnerability checks)
Wireshark (traffic analysis)
OpenVAS (open-source scanner)
Security onion stack (monitoring insights)
Firewall vendor tools (Fortinet, Palo Alto, Cisco)

These tools help identify vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and traffic anomalies.

These gaps often remain unnoticed until a breach occurs.

Use Cases for Network Security Assessments

Before a Major Upgrade or Migration

Businesses assess their network to avoid carrying forward old vulnerabilities.

After Security Incidents

Helps verify whether attackers still have access or if underlying gaps exist.

Compliance & Certification Preparation

PCI-DSS, ISO 27001, SOC 2, and similar standards require periodic network reviews.

Onboarding New Remote Teams

Ensures remote access setups don't expose internal systems.

Performance & Visibility Issues

When teams experience slow systems or suspicious traffic, assessments help identify root causes.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How can I tell if my network needs a security assessment?

Warning signs include slow performance, unexplained traffic spikes, login failures, outdated devices, or firewall rules that haven’t been reviewed in months. If you don’t have clear visibility into which systems are exposed or how devices communicate internally, it’s a strong indication that an assessment is overdue.

What does a network security assessment reveal that regular IT checks might miss?

Routine IT checks focus on functionality, uptime, and performance. An assessment looks deeper — misconfigurations, unnecessary open ports, weak access rules, exposed services, risky traffic patterns, and outdated firmware. These issues often remain hidden until a security-focused review is performed.

Does the assessment cover both internal and external risks?

Yes. External checks identify what attackers can see from outside, while internal reviews highlight risks inside the network, such as lateral movement paths, unmonitored devices, and weak segmentation. Both views are essential for complete visibility.

Can a network assessment help prevent ransomware attacks?

It can significantly reduce risk. Many ransomware attacks succeed due to weak access controls, exposed ports, outdated systems, and poor segmentation. An assessment helps identify these weaknesses so you can fix them before attackers exploit them.

Do we need to prepare anything before the assessment begins?

Usually very little. Basic network information, a list of critical systems, and access for configuration review are enough. If anything else is needed, it’s communicated early so the process remains smooth.

How soon can we apply the recommendations after the assessment?

Most improvements — such as rule cleanup, firmware updates, or adjusting access — can be implemented quickly. More complex changes, such as segmentation or large-scale policy updates, may take longer, but you will have a clear roadmap to follow.
