You can't defend what you don't understand. Axio Networks' security assessments give you a clear, honest picture of your vulnerabilities — and a roadmap to fix them.
Most Scottsdale businesses find out about a security gap the same way — after something goes wrong. A phishing email gets through, a former employee’s account is still active, a server is three years behind on patches. None of it was invisible; it just was never written down and put in front of a decision-maker.
A cybersecurity assessment from Axio Networks turns unknowns into a prioritized list. We examine your environment the way an attacker and an auditor would — technically and procedurally — then give you a plain-English report that says what is exposed, how serious it is, and what to fix first. No 200-page scanner dump, no scare tactics.
A structured assessment of your network, servers, endpoints, cloud services, identity management, and data security practices.
Every finding is documented with a severity rating, business impact description, and specific remediation recommendation.
A prioritized roadmap with quick wins and strategic projects so you can take action — not just read a report.
We check whether your company’s email addresses and passwords appear in known breach data and on dark-web marketplaces, and flag any credentials that need to be rotated immediately.
Multi-factor authentication coverage, conditional access, mailbox forwarding rules, admin roles and stale accounts are reviewed in Entra ID — the source of most business email compromise incidents.
Every finding is rated by likelihood and business impact and grouped into 30-, 60- and 90-day actions, so your team knows exactly where to start and what can wait.
Systematic scanning and analysis of your internal and external attack surface. Identifies unpatched systems, misconfigured services, and exploitable vulnerabilities.
Broader evaluation of your security posture aligned to NIST CSF, CIS Controls, or your specific regulatory framework. Identifies gaps in people, process, and technology.
Formal gap analysis against HIPAA, PCI DSS, CMMC, FTC Safeguards Rule, or SOC 2 requirements. Produces an audit-ready findings report with remediation guidance.
For businesses requiring formal penetration testing, we coordinate with qualified third-party testers and manage the engagement end-to-end.
A 30-minute call to confirm locations, users, cloud services and any compliance framework (HIPAA, PCI, FTC Safeguards) the assessment should map to.
On-site and remote discovery of your network, endpoints, Microsoft 365 tenant, backups and policies. Authenticated vulnerability scanning where authorized.
Findings are validated (no false-positive noise), rated by risk, and tied to the specific business consequence — downtime, data loss, fines, wire fraud.
You receive an executive summary, a technical appendix and a remediation roadmap, walked through in person with your leadership team.
Independent, but able to fix it. You get an honest assessment whether or not you hire Axio Networks afterward — and if you do, the same engineers who found the issues remediate them, with no hand-off gap.
Built for Arizona SMBs. Reports are written for owners and office managers, not just IT staff. We benchmark against the frameworks that actually apply to Scottsdale businesses your size.
Local and on-site. Assessments include a physical walkthrough of your Scottsdale or Phoenix-area office — network closets, Wi-Fi, printers and workstations included.
A starting point for cyber insurance. Most carriers now require MFA, EDR, backups and awareness training. The assessment maps your posture to those questionnaires so renewals stop being a scramble.
Most assessments for businesses with 10–75 employees take two to three weeks from kickoff to the report review, including the on-site visit. Larger or multi-site environments take longer, and we agree on the timeline up front.
No. Discovery and scanning are scheduled around your operations and run with read-only access. Nothing is changed on your systems during the assessment.
No. An assessment identifies and prioritizes weaknesses across your whole environment; a penetration test attempts to actively exploit them. Many clients start with an assessment and add a pen test once the basics are fixed.
No. The assessment is a standalone engagement with a fixed price. You own the report and can use it with any provider — though most clients ask Axio Networks to handle the remediation.
Yes. Tell us which frameworks apply and the findings are mapped to those requirements, giving you documentation you can use for compliance and cyber-insurance questionnaires.
