Cybersecurity Risk Assessment
Never assume your network is safe. Know for sure with a cybersecurity risk assessment from Virtual-Q.
Network security is an abstract concept. Unlike a security camera or a deadbolt, you can’t easily see the elements keeping your data safe—you just assume protection is there. At Virtual-Q, we can turn that assumption into an absolute and prevent a catastrophic cyberattack by conducting a thorough cybersecurity risk assessment.

What Is a Data Security Risk Assessment?
Many business owners, employees, and even IT team members use their company network each day with little to no understanding of how it stays safe. You may see no problem with this approach—after all, plenty of businesses get by with little to no IT oversight—but when it comes to cybersecurity, ignorance can spell disaster. If you want your business to stick around for years to come, cybersecurity needs to be on the top of your priority list.
The first step in implementing a cybersecurity plan is conducting a data security risk assessment. During the risk assessment process, Virtual-Q takes stock of your network, servers, software, applications, and any other infrastructure elements before analyzing their risk levels. Then, we identify how you transmit data across your network, which helps highlight internal and external security threats.
It can take days for our team to complete a cybersecurity risk assessment, but once it’s complete, we use our findings to mitigate risk and prepare your business for a future attack.
One Assessment Could Save Your Business
After weeks spent halting operations and paying a clean-up crew to restore your network, you may spend the next few years in court battling client lawsuits—if your business makes it that long. Don’t wait until after tragedy occurs to invest in cybersecurity. Become a Virtual-Q partner today.
Security Audits
At Virtual-Q, we customize our cybersecurity risk assessments to fit our clients’ needs. Some clients, especially in the finance, healthcare, and professional services industries, must comply with strict regulatory requirements. To determine if these clients have the right safety procedures to meet information security requirements, we conduct security audits.
During information security risk assessments, we compare your security procedures to external standards and determine if your employees are adequately trained to keep data safe.
Vulnerability Testing
Vulnerability testing is an essential component of any cybersecurity risk assessment because it pinpoints areas where your infrastructure is exposed. Today’s cybercriminals are extremely crafty when it comes to finding loopholes in your network security, which is why regular vulnerability testing is crucial.
After conducting a vulnerability test, we create an action plan to help you eliminate security loopholes and secure your confidential data against an attack.
