01
Scoping & rules of engagement
A written scope defines every system in play, the testing windows, and the exact boundaries — signed before a single packet is sent. Typically a one-week intake.
Est. Milton, New Hampshire · Retained Security Counsel
The security firm of record for small enterprise.
Kryptomend tests the systems your business runs on, documents where they can fail, and stands ready when something goes wrong — so a single breach never becomes the end of the story.
The engagement, in order
How a Kryptomend engagement runs.
Every engagement follows the same disciplined sequence. You know what we are doing, why, and what you receive at each stage.
02
Reconnaissance & testing
We map your external and internal surface, then attempt real-world exploitation the way an adversary would — credential attacks, misconfigurations, and known ransomware entry points.
03
The findings report
Every issue is ranked by exploitability and business impact, with reproduction steps and a remediation path a working IT team can actually follow. Delivered within ten business days.
04
Remediation & retest
We walk your team through the fixes, then retest the high and critical items at no additional charge to confirm each one is closed. Retainer clients keep us on standing recall thereafter.
What clients rely on us for
A standard of practice, not a sales pitch.
The same lead consultant signs your scope, runs your test, and briefs your board.
Findings you can act on
No 200-page automated dump. Each report leads with a plain-language executive summary and a prioritised remediation list your team can start on the same afternoon.
Confidentiality in writing
A mutual NDA precedes every engagement. Test data, credentials, and findings are held under a documented retention and destruction policy.
Documentation cyber insurers ask for
Our audit deliverables map to the control language on common cyber-liability questionnaires — attestation, MFA coverage, and backup posture included.
Scoped, not scattershot
We test what matters to your business and say so up front. You never receive a bill for hours spent scanning systems that were never in scope.
Answering the phone at 2 a.m.
Retainer clients reach a named responder directly. When ransomware hits, the clock is the enemy — a triage call inside the first hour changes the outcome.
Who we work with
A breach doesn't check whether you're a Fortune 500 or a fourteen-person firm. It checks whether the door was locked.
