Cybersecurity

Protect, detect, respond and recover

Cyberattacks: It’s no longer a question of “if.” It’s a question of “when.”

• Every 14 seconds, a business falls victim to ransomware.
• Every 39 seconds, a computer is hacked.
• On average, it takes a business more than 200 days to detect a data breach.

Wipfli’s team of cybersecurity professionals can help ensure your security strategy and solutions are as fluid and agile as the evolving cyber landscape.

The Wipfli difference

We provide a full range of cybersecurity services to help you proactively address mounting threats with the right technology and build security so your business is more resistant to attacks and resilient .

Our solutions are tailored to your industry.

Our services include:

Vulnerability scanning and assessment

Keep your applications and infrastructure current with continuous vulnerability assessment.  We monitor your systems on an ongoing basis to identify out-of-date software and weak configurations that cyber criminals can attack and exploit.  Our cybersecurity professionals will provide you with guidance and recommendations to help keep your systems secure and resistant to attack.

Penetration testing and red teaming

Validate the true operational effectiveness of your cybersecurity controls with a penetration test.  Our dedicated team of penetration testers and ethical hackers craft attack scenarios and exploits to simulate a real-world attack scenario and attempt to gain unauthorized administrative access to your systems and applications. Red teaming raises the bar with covert testing combing physical, social, and logical threat models to gain access to your systems in a covert manner where our testers evade detection and slip past your cybersecurity defenses.  At the end of a penetration testing or red team engagement, we’ll provide you with detailed recommendations on how to measurably improve your resistance to attack.
