Book an IT Audit with an Award-Winning Managed IT Service Provider (MSP)
A health-check for your IT
Conducting an IT audit can be a time-consuming manual task or require investment in IT auditing software. Our small business IT audit provides an in-depth analysis of your information technology infrastructure and security measures.
We'll deliver an audit report detailing the robustness of your technical infrastructure, the strength of your security measures, and your network's performance. The audit team will then make recommendations to overcome any issues, achieve Cyber Essentials compliance, and drive your business forward.
We can help you:
-
Build a picture of your current IT setup: If you need to get to grips with your current setup, we can help you streamline or rationalise your systems.
-
Identify weaknesses and risk: Find gaps and weaknesses in your infrastructure and ensure that the latest antivirus and threat management tools and updates are running.
-
Reduce IT support issues: Ensure all computers are running accepted versions of software, patching is up-to-date, and your systems are uniform across the organisation.
-
Solve performance problems: An audit can identify poor network optimisation, resolve connectivity problems, and troubleshoot slow server or workstation performance.
-
Get the best from your systems: Use an IT audit to move forward and improve your systems' agility, efficacy, and performance.
-
Meet Cyber Essentials compliance: Our audit includes all the basic security controls of the UK government’s Cyber Essentials standard, plus additional controls we've developed over the years.

Comprehensive IT Audit Services for Small Business Owners
Internal Audit of Your IT Infrastructure
Our internal audit services provide small business owners with a thorough review of their information technology infrastructure. We conduct a detailed information technology audit that examines all aspects of your IT environment.
Assessing General Controls
Our audit includes evaluating your general controls to ensure that your systems and processes are secure and efficient. We focus on key areas such as access control and systems development to identify and mitigate risks.
Reviewing Systems and Applications
We meticulously examine your systems and applications to ensure they are performing optimally and are aligned with your business goals. This part of our audit includes a review of systems development practices to enhance efficiency and reliability.
Ensuring Compliance
Ensuring compliance with industry standards and regulatory requirements is critical. Our audit process helps you meet these standards by assessing your current compliance status and providing recommendations for improvement.
Evaluating Access Control
Effective access control is essential for protecting your sensitive information. Our audit evaluates your access control mechanisms to ensure they are robust and capable of safeguarding your data.
Financial Statements Integration
While primarily focused on IT, our audit includes reviewing the integration of your IT systems with financial statements. This ensures that your financial data is accurately supported by your IT infrastructure.
Our IT Auditing process
Review meeting
A member of our team will meet with you to gain an understanding of your business, any relevant history, and the reasons for your current IT infrastructure.
Perform assessment
We will then carry out the physical audit of your IT systems (on and offsite) using industry-leading tools and benchmark your IT infrastructure against current industry best practice. We'll also gather user feedback.
Gather findings and build a report
Then we'll review and pull together a report complete with our findings and recommendations for how to align your business technology to needs and security standards.
Presentation of reports and findings
Finally, we'll report back with our findings and outline the current position of your IT systems, identifying any gaps, risks and suggestions for possible improvements. For example, we can determine whether or not everything is operating efficiently, whether your assets are safe, and whether IT contributes to your business objectives.
