Case Study: Security Audit and Vulnerability Assessment for Leading IT Services Company

Industry: IT Services
Service: Vulnerability Assessment / Security audit
Client: The client, headquartered in Mumbai is a leading IT services company with various regional offices located across India and the globe. The company's clients include corporations from across the world.
The need: The Company leverages the Internet to a great extent as part of its services to its customers. The Internet is used to transfer information between the company and its clients. Given that confidential information would be transacted on the servers via the Internet, data security and confidentiality was of paramount importance.

The Company approached NetMagic for a comprehensive security audit of the network and servers.

NetMagic Solution: NetMagic undertook a comprehensive audit that assessed the network of the customer using a plethora of tools to pinpoint vulnerabilities. The audit ranked relative risks, recommended fixes and enabled informed decisions for protecting critical online information assets.

The audit was split into two areas - network assessment and OS / server assessment. The network audit focused on the connectivity, IP addressing & rule sets, firewall implementation and VPN. The server audit focused on the OS and the applications that were running on those machines - it looked at OS hardening / patch recommendations and at tools to harden the applications running on those servers.

Highlights of the solution:
   Cost effective
   Comprehensive and Exhaustive
   Total risk assessment
   The solution stresses on User and Manual assessment rather than just focusing on the tools used.
   Enable effective data security
