What is a Compromise Assessment?

Even if no alerts have been triggered, a Compromise Assessment is a specialised cybersecurity investigation intended to determine whether your systems have already been compromised.

In contrast to conventional scans or audits, a compromise assessment searches for subtle indications of sophisticated attackers’ persistence tactics, data exfiltration, lateral movement, and unauthorised access. It assists organisations in responding to the crucial question,

“Have we already been compromised and we’re just unaware of it?”

What's Included in Our Compromise Assessment Service?

Expertise

Our team of certified cybersecurity professionals utilizes advanced tools and techniques to perform thorough assessments.

Comprehensive Scans

We meticulously investigate all endpoints, network logs, and data storage systems for evidence of compromise.

Proactive Detection

Prevent potential damage by identifying security gaps and indicators of compromise (IoCs) before they escalate.

Tailored Remediation Plans

After assessing the environment, we provide actionable steps to mitigate risks and prevent future incidents.

Real-Time Threat Intelligence

Our assessments are backed by cutting-edge threat intelligence, enabling us to stay ahead of emerging attack vectors.

Customized Reporting

We deliver detailed and easy-to-understand reports, highlighting findings and recommended actions tailored to your business needs.

How We Perform a Compromise Assessment

Our compromise assessment follows a structured, evidence-led process — designed to find attackers who have already bypassed your preventative controls, without disrupting your operations.

1. Scoping & Intelligence Gathering

We define the environment, crown-jewel assets, and any suspicious activity that prompted the assessment. We align our hunt to the threat actors and techniques most relevant to your industry.

We collect endpoint telemetry, network logs, authentication records, cloud audit trails, and email/SaaS activity — using non-intrusive, read-only methods that do not interrupt business operations.

Our analysts hunt for indicators of compromise (IoCs) and, more importantly, indicators of attack — the behavioural patterns of persistence, privilege escalation, lateral movement, and data staging that signature-based tools miss.

Every suspected finding is validated with forensic evidence before it reaches your report. No noise, no unconfirmed alerts — only what we can prove.

You receive a full report mapped to attacker tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs), plus a live debrief with our analysts.

If we find an active compromise, we provide prioritised containment and remediation steps — and can coordinate directly with your incident response team.

Most compromise assessments complete within 1–3 weeks, depending on environment size.

Once we’ve confirmed and contained a compromise, the priority is making sure it doesn’t happen again. For continuous detection and rapid response beyond the assessment, we extend into Managed Detection & Response (MDR) — 24×7 monitoring of the gaps the assessment uncovered.

What's in Your Compromise Assessment Report

The assessment is only as valuable as what you can act on. Every engagement ends with a report written for two audiences — your board and your technical team.

Your report includes:

  • Executive summary — a clear verdict in plain language: evidence of compromise found, or a clean bill of health with the scope of what was examined
  • Confirmed findings — every indicator of compromise, with forensic evidence and severity
  • Attacker TTP mapping — findings aligned to the MITRE ATT&CK framework so your team understands how an intrusion occurred
  • Affected assets & scope of impact — which systems, accounts, and data were touched
  • Root cause analysis — how the attacker got in and why it went undetected
  • Prioritised remediation roadmap — containment first, then eradication and hardening
  • Detection gap analysis — what your existing tools and SOC missed, and how to close those gaps

Cloud Compromise Assessment

Modern breaches increasingly live in the cloud — in identity providers, SaaS platforms, and misconfigured cloud infrastructure that traditional endpoint tools never see.

Our cloud compromise assessment extends the hunt across:

  • Identity & access — Entra ID / Azure AD and Okta sign-in logs, token abuse, MFA fatigue, and persistence via app registrations and OAuth grants
  • AWS, Azure & GCP — CloudTrail, Azure Activity, and GCP audit logs analysed for unauthorised access, privilege escalation, and data exfiltration
  • SaaS platforms — Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace audit trails, mailbox rule abuse, and suspicious data access
  • Cloud posture — misconfigurations and exposed services that an attacker may already be exploiting

If your business runs on cloud and identity, a compromise assessment that stops at the endpoint is only telling you half the story.

Compromise Assessment Vs. Other Security Checks

Compromise Assessment vs. Vulnerability Assessment

  • Identifies unpatched systems and weaknesses
  • Preventative in nature
  • Based on known CVEs and system configs
  • Does not detect ongoing attacks
  • Detects actual signs of active or past breaches
  • Investigative in nature
  • Based on attacker behavior and threat intel
  • Uncovers hidden threats already in your environment
  • Proactive search for threats (often without cause)
  • Continuous or routine activity
  • Often limited to endpoints
  • No guaranteed report or remediation
  • Triggered by suspicious activity or routine risk check
  • Time-bound and project-based
  • Covers endpoints, cloud, network, SaaS, and more
  • Always includes report, evidence, and response advice

Compromise Assessment vs. Threat Hunting

Compromise Assessment vs. Incident Response

  • Triggered after a confirmed breach or attack
  • Focuses on containment, eradication, and recovery
  • High urgency, crisis mode
  • Performed in response to a known incident
  • Helps detect if a compromise has already occurred
  • Focuses on detection, investigation, and early intervention
  • Structured, proactive security measures
  • Performed to uncover unknown or stealthy incidents
  • Alert-based, reliant on log rules

Frequently Asked Questions — Compromise Assessment Service

  • Even if no alerts have been set off, a compromise assessment is a targeted investigation that finds out if an attacker has already obtained unauthorised access to your systems. To find hidden threats or breaches, it uses behavioural analytics, threat intelligence, and forensic analysis.
  • A compromise assessment looks for indications that your systems have already been compromised, whereas vulnerability scans search for flaws in your systems. Finding actual proof of compromise—rather than merely possible dangers—is the goal.
  • A compromise assessment should be taken into consideration if:
    • You believe your network is experiencing strange activity.
    • You’re going through compliance or M&A reviews.
    • This is the first time you’ve ever had a thorough breach investigation.
    • You want peace of mind because you handle sensitive data.
  • The size and complexity of your surroundings determine the timeline. The majority of assessments, including data collection, analysis, and reporting, take one to three weeks. Throughout the onboarding process, we offer a thorough timeline.
  • You will be given:
    • A thorough report outlining any indications of compromise
    • Potential attackers’ tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs)
    • Suggestions for future prevention, remediation, and containment
    • Our security experts’ debriefing
  • Absolutely not. The goal of our compromise assessment is to be non-intrusive. We employ log analysis methods and forensic tools that won’t interfere with regular business operations or cause your systems to lag.
  • The size of your environment, the quantity of endpoints, and the level of analysis needed all affect how much a compromise assessment costs. Our prices are flexible and customised, ranging from enterprise-scale engagements to reasonably priced packages for SMEs. 👉 Get a free scoping call to find out what works best for your company.
  • Threat hunting is often a continuous, open-ended activity focused on endpoints. A compromise assessment is a time-bound, project-based engagement across your full environment — endpoint, cloud, network, and SaaS — that always ends with a report, evidence, and a remediation plan.

  • Yes. We analyse identity providers (Entra ID, Okta), AWS/Azure/GCP audit logs, and Microsoft 365 / Google Workspace activity — the places modern breaches actually persist.
