What is a security audit?
A security audit is a systematic review of network devices, servers, applications and user permissions from a security point of view. Vulnerability scans, configuration checks and log reviews reveal the organisation's real risk position.
The result is a prioritised report with technical findings and a summary written for management.
Audit scope
- Internal and external network vulnerability scanning
- Firewall, switch and server configuration audit
- Active Directory and permission audit (over-privileged accounts)
- Review of logs and event records
- Patch and version status analysis
- Backup and disaster recovery readiness check
ISO 27001 and data protection compliance
ISO 27001, the Turkish data protection law (KVKK) and the GDPR expect technical and organisational measures that are documented. Our audit report lists the current state of these measures and the gaps, item by item, and can be used as evidence in audits.
After the audit
We do not just hand over a report. We close critical gaps with you, verify fixes by re-scanning, and set up a recurring audit schedule.
Vulnerability scanning vs. penetration testing
Vulnerability scanning finds known weaknesses broadly and regularly with automated tools. A penetration test tries, from an attacker's perspective, whether those weaknesses can really be exploited. Regular scanning keeps security maintained; penetration tests provide periodic in-depth validation.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a security audit take?
For a mid-sized organisation, fieldwork usually takes 1-2 weeks and the report follows within a week. Duration depends on the number of systems and the scope.
Will the audit affect our systems?
Scans run outside business hours or at low load under an agreed plan. Any test that could affect production systems is shared with you in advance.
How often should we audit?
We recommend a full audit at least once a year and quarterly vulnerability scans for critical systems, plus an extra scan after major infrastructure changes.
What does an audit report contain?
An executive summary, findings rated critical to low with evidence and remediation steps, a mapping to ISO 27001 and data-protection controls, and verification scan results after remediation.
