Technical audit and IT security training
We performed a full security audit of a financial institution’s IT infrastructure, accompanied by tailored training sessions for technical and executive teams.
Technical audit and cybersecurity capability building
A national financial institution hired Cyber-Tower to perform a comprehensive audit of its technological infrastructure and provide security training to its technical and executive teams.
Initial situation
The organization aimed to identify critical vulnerabilities in its IT environment and improve its internal cybersecurity culture. It had no continuous review process or formal training program.
Project stages
- Review of security architecture and policies.
- Penetration testing and vulnerability analysis.
- Control evaluation for servers, networks, and endpoints.
- Development of a prioritized mitigation plan based on risk level.
- Delivery of technical workshops and executive awareness sessions.
Main findings and improvements
Significant gaps were identified in patch management, identity and access control, and network segmentation. After implementing the action plan, the institution achieved a 60% reduction in critical vulnerabilities and established a quarterly review schedule.
“The audit allowed us to understand our real exposure and prioritize cybersecurity investments. The training transformed how our teams approach security.”
Final impact
Beyond raising technical maturity, the project helped build a sustainable culture of cyber resilience, supported by performance metrics and automated internal tracking.
