Cyber Hygiene Assessment
Strengthening security across North Carolina through structured assessment, remediation, and validation.
Cyber Hygiene Lifecycle
Click a step for details. This is a continuous cycle, not a one-time event.
Assessment
We review technical configurations, security controls, and environmental risk factors to identify gaps and establish a clear baseline.
- Identify vulnerabilities and coverage gaps
- Align findings with recognized standards and DoD STIG guidance
- Deliver a detailed report with prioritized actions
Remediation Support
We help partners translate findings into practical fixes, prioritize effort, and document risk decisions clearly.
- Prioritize issues by impact and exploitability
- Support mitigation strategies and timelines
- Document risk acceptance where appropriate
Validation
After remediation, we validate the effectiveness of changes and identify remaining weaknesses through testing and review.
- Confirm corrective actions are effective
- Identify residual issues and follow-on improvements
- Provide a verification-focused follow-up report
Continuous Improvement
Cyber hygiene is ongoing. We support periodic reassessment so controls stay effective as systems and threats evolve.
- Maintain momentum with scheduled reassessments
- Refine controls as environments shift
- Track progress over time
