We can help you to meet your business and compliance goals

How we can help you

Securing your information and protecting your company’s reputation isn’t just about technology.

It’s about understanding your assets, weaknesses, and the threats towards your business in order to calculate true risk.

It’s about mitigating that risk to an acceptable level.

It’s about policies, procedures, and configuration guidelines.

It’s about increasing the security awareness for your employees, and empowering them to stay ahead of the threats.

Maven Security Consulting understands the big picture. How? Experience.

Distinctions

  • Vendor Independent: We don’t have an agenda (nor get a commission) when we make recommendations.
  • Morally Inflexible: Sorry, our staff doesn’t have any elite black-hat criminal records to brag about. Trust is key when dealing with the types of information and access our customers share with us.
  • Experience: Members of our staff have been doing commercial-grade security penetration testing since 1996.

Service Examples

  • Web App Security Assessments: Have your web applications been tested for security weaknesses? Firewalls and encryption are not enough! Each web-based application is different and no fully automated tools exist to test them. Our team of experts have decades of experience in web application assessments. For more details, see out Web Application Security Assessment page. An overview of our methodology targeted towards your business needs is also included with proposals submitted in response to your company’s RFP (Request for Proposal).
  • Training: Do your internal auditors know how to effectively and safely test for the latest vulnerabilities? Do your developers know how to code defensively to avoid flaws in the first place? Multi-day hands-on workshops are available from Maven Security to teach your staff how to conduct security assessments, avoid flaws, or simply understand your organization’s risk posture better.
