A thick client security assessment service is a tool that can be used by businesses to make sure they are not exposing themselves to unnecessary risks. It assesses the level of risk that a company is exposed to and provides recommendations on how to improve its security.
When it comes to the assessment of risks, security teams often rely on the traditional methodology of assessing risk based on the type of software or hardware being developed. This is a very common approach, but it may not be the best approach for assessing risks in many cases.
The assessment of the risk, or potential vulnerability for that matter, can be greatly enhanced by conducting a risk-based assessment. The key concepts of this methodology are to determine the criticality and impact of a particular asset at risk.
We've tested a wide variation of thick clients, from enterprise software to antivirus software and video games.
We modify each assessment to focus on the risks that are most applicable to your software.
Our combined manual and tool-based assessment approach contains a detailed analysis of results, detailed reporting,
and actionable remediation direction.
We recognize that every organization has a different risk profile and tolerance, so we tailor our approach to your needs
and budget. We can adjust assessment scope and perform tests more efficiently with access to source code, design documentation, specifications, etc.
At the end of each assessment, we'll conduct a read-out call to walk you through positive results and prioritize
vulnerabilities based on their probability and impact if exploited. We'll offer mitigation recommendations for each vulnerability and help you develop a legal remediation plan best suited to your needs. If we create any custom tools or scripts to test your thick client software, we'll provide these to you so that your testing teams can use them.
