What Is a Cybersecurity Audit — and Do You Need One?

Cyber threats are more common than ever, and many small businesses aren’t sure where they stand. A cybersecurity audit can answer that question.

What’s a Cybersecurity Audit?
It’s a full review of your IT systems, security policies, and practices to identify risks and ensure your business is protected. At Preferred IT Solutions, we check things like:

-Network and endpoint security

-User access and password practices

-Email and communication safety

-Backup and disaster recovery readiness

-Compliance with standards like HIPAA or PCI

Why Does It Matter?
43% of cyberattacks target small businesses. Many don’t realize their vulnerabilities until it’s too late. An audit helps you:

-Spot and fix security gaps

-Stay compliant with industry regulations

-Protect your customer and company data

-Plan for smarter, safer IT investments

What Happens After?
We don’t just give you a report — we help you act on it. From patching weaknesses to boosting employee awareness, we’ll guide your next steps.
