What Is a Third-Party Cybersecurity Assessment—And Why Does Your Business Need One?Every business wants to believe their network is secure. But how do you really know unless someone tries to break in?

That’s exactly what a third-party cybersecurity assessment does. It simulates a real-world cyberattack to identify vulnerabilities across your IT environment, before the bad guys find them first.

What Does a Third-Party Assessment Include?

A comprehensive cybersecurity assessment from Diverse CTI includes:

  • External & Internal Vulnerability Scans: We assess your network from the outside (like a hacker would) and from the inside (like an insider threat or misconfigured tool might).
  • Dark Web Scanning: We check for exposed company credentials, stolen passwords, and employee data on the dark web.
  • Endpoint & Device Review: We evaluate your computers, phones, and mobile devices to check for unpatched software or risky access configurations.
  • Firewall & Server Analysis: Are your protections properly configured? Are your systems outdated and exposed?
  • Compliance Readiness: We align our findings with standards like HIPAA, NIST, and SOX—so you can prepare for audits or regulatory changes.

Why It Matters

  • Unbiased Insight: A third-party assessment gives you an objective view of your environment, something internal IT often overlooks.
  • Real-World Testing: We act like a hacker to expose real vulnerabilities, not just hypothetical ones.
  • Compliance Confidence: Whether it’s HIPAA, insurance renewals, or audit season—our reporting helps you check all the boxes.
  • Actionable Next Steps: We don’t just scan and scare. We show you what to fix, how to fix it, and how to prevent it from happening again.

Peace of Mind Starts with Knowing Where You Stand

Most businesses don’t get breached because they’re targeted; they get breached because they’re unprepared. If you have in-house IT, or even outsourced IT, it’s always good to have a second set of eyes on your system!  Let Diverse CTI give you a clear picture of your infrastructure, risks, and priorities, so you can act before it’s too late.
