Cybersecurity Assessment & Security Posture Assessment

A cybersecurity assessment is a structured evaluation of an organisation’s overall security posture — its people, processes and technology — that identifies weaknesses, measures security maturity and prioritises improvements. Aesparrow’s cybersecurity assessment services combine a security posture and maturity assessment with targeted vulnerability assessment and penetration testing, so recommendations are grounded in evidence.

VAPT Services (Vulnerability Assessment & Penetration Testing)

Aesparrow’s VAPT Services combine both vulnerability assessments and penetration testing to provide a comprehensive analysis of your organization’s digital security. Our team of experts uses a variety of tools, techniques, and methodologies to identify and exploit vulnerabilities in systems, applications, and networks, providing actionable insights to safeguard your infrastructure against cyber threats.

Penetration Testing Services

Penetration testing is an authorised, simulated cyber attack in which certified security testers try to exploit weaknesses in your applications, networks and cloud — the same way a real attacker would — and then show you exactly how to fix them. Aesparrow is a penetration testing company and penetration testing services provider delivering manual-first pentests for web apps, mobile apps, APIs, internal and external networks, Active Directory and AWS, Azure and GCP environments.

GRC Services (Governance, Risk, and Compliance)

Aesparrow Consulting Pvt. Ltd. provides comprehensive Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) services that empower your organization to mitigate risks, ensure regulatory compliance, and establish effective security governance.

Application Security Testing & Consulting

Application security testing is the practice of finding and fixing security weaknesses in software — web apps, mobile apps and APIs — through a combination of manual penetration testing, dynamic testing (DAST), static code analysis (SAST), software composition analysis (SCA) and secure code review. Aesparrow’s application security services cover the whole application security lifecycle, from threat modelling and secure SDLC to OWASP-aligned testing and remediation.

Software Composition Analysis (SCA) Services

Software composition analysis (SCA) is the process of identifying every open-source and third-party component in your applications, then checking those components for known vulnerabilities (CVEs), licence risks and outdated versions. Aesparrow’s SCA services give you a complete software bill of materials (SBOM), a prioritised list of vulnerable dependencies and a practical upgrade plan — securing your software supply chain without slowing releases.

DevSecOps Services & Consulting

DevSecOps is the practice of building security into every stage of the software development lifecycle — from design and code to CI/CD pipelines and production — instead of testing only at the end. Aesparrow’s DevSecOps consulting helps engineering teams implement a secure SDLC, automate security testing (SAST, SCA, secrets and IaC scanning, DAST) in CI/CD, and harden pipelines, so vulnerabilities are caught early when they are cheapest to fix.

AWS Security Assessment & Penetration Testing

An AWS security assessment is an expert review of your Amazon Web Services accounts — identity and access management (IAM), network design, storage, compute, logging and data protection — to find misconfigurations and attack paths before they lead to a breach. Aesparrow combines configuration review against the CIS AWS Foundations Benchmark with hands-on AWS penetration testing, showing how an attacker could move from a single weakness to your crown-jewel data.

Azure Security Assessment & Penetration Testing

An Azure security assessment evaluates your Microsoft Azure and Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD) environment for misconfigurations, excessive privileges and exposed resources that attackers could exploit. Aesparrow reviews subscriptions, identities, networking, storage, Key Vault, AKS and monitoring against the CIS Microsoft Azure Foundations Benchmark, and performs authorised Azure penetration testing to demonstrate real attack paths.

SaaS Security Assessment & SaaS Penetration Testing

A SaaS security assessment is a combined application, API and cloud penetration test designed for software-as-a-service companies — with special focus on tenant isolation, authorisation between customers, and the integrations and admin functions attackers target first. Aesparrow helps SaaS startups and scale-ups pass enterprise security reviews, answer security questionnaires with confidence, and produce SOC 2 and ISO 27001 evidence.

Cybersecurity Audit Services

A cybersecurity audit is an independent, evidence-based evaluation of how well your organisation’s security policies, technical controls and processes protect its information assets against a recognised standard. Aesparrow’s cybersecurity audit services assess governance, access control, network, application, cloud and third-party security against ISO 27001, the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, CIS Controls and sector regulations — and give leadership a clear, prioritised improvement plan.

Compliance Penetration Testing (PCI DSS, SOC 2, ISO 27001)

Compliance security testing is penetration testing and vulnerability assessment scoped and reported specifically to satisfy a standard or regulator — such as PCI DSS, SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, GDPR, NIST, CMMC, Cyber Essentials, Essential Eight, NIS2 or DORA. Aesparrow delivers compliance VAPT with the evidence auditors expect: defined methodology, scope statements, CVSS-rated findings, remediation tracking and a re-test report.

Compliance Consulting & Implementation Services

Compliance consulting helps an organisation understand which security standards and regulations apply to it, measure the gap between current practice and those requirements, and then implement the policies, controls and evidence needed to pass an audit. Aesparrow is a compliance consulting company and compliance implementation partner for ISO 27001, SOC 2, PCI DSS, HIPAA, GDPR, NIST CSF, CMMC, Cyber Essentials and Essential Eight — combining GRC expertise with in-house VAPT so security testing and compliance move together.

NIST CSF, 800-53 & 800-171 Compliance Consulting

NIST compliance consulting helps organisations adopt and demonstrate alignment with the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology’s security frameworks — the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) 2.0, the NIST SP 800-53 control catalogue and NIST SP 800-171 for protecting controlled unclassified information (CUI). Aesparrow performs NIST CSF assessments and gap analyses, builds target profiles and implements the controls needed to close gaps.

CMMC Compliance Consulting & Readiness Assessment

CMMC (Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification) is the U.S. Department of Defense programme that verifies defence contractors and suppliers protect federal contract information and controlled unclassified information (CUI). Aesparrow’s CMMC compliance consulting prepares organisations for assessment with a CMMC readiness assessment, gap analysis against NIST SP 800-171, remediation support and audit preparation.

Cyber Essentials & Cyber Essentials Plus Readiness

Cyber Essentials is a UK government-backed certification scheme, run by the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC), that shows an organisation has five basic technical controls in place: firewalls, secure configuration, user access control, malware protection and security update management. Aesparrow’s Cyber Essentials consultancy prepares you for Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus with a readiness assessment, remediation support and pre-assessment technical testing.

Essential Eight Maturity Assessment & Consulting

The Essential Eight is a set of eight prioritised mitigation strategies published by the Australian Signals Directorate (ASD) to help organisations defend against cyber attacks, measured against a maturity model from Level Zero to Level Three. Aesparrow’s Essential Eight assessment measures your current maturity for each strategy, identifies the gaps to your target level and delivers a practical remediation roadmap.

Cybersecurity & Information Security Internal Audit Services

A cybersecurity internal audit is an independent, objective review of whether an organisation’s information security controls are designed correctly and operating effectively, performed before — and separately from — any external certification audit. Aesparrow provides outsourced internal audit services for ISO 27001, SOC 2, PCI DSS, HIPAA, NIST and IT general controls, giving leadership assurance and giving auditors the evidence they expect.

Security Controls Assessment & Control Testing

A security controls assessment evaluates whether an organisation’s security controls — technical, administrative and physical — are implemented correctly, operating as intended and producing the desired outcome. Aesparrow’s security controls assessment tests control design and control effectiveness against ISO 27001, SOC 2, PCI DSS, NIST SP 800-53, CIS Controls or your own control framework.

Cybersecurity Risk Assessment Services

A cybersecurity risk assessment identifies the threats and vulnerabilities that could affect your information assets, estimates the likelihood and business impact of each, and prioritises the controls that reduce risk to an acceptable level. Aesparrow’s risk assessment services cover information security, IT, cloud, compliance and third-party risk, aligned to ISO 27005, NIST SP 800-30 and ISO 27001 requirements.

Web Application VAPT & Penetration Testing

Your web application is the front door to your business — and the first thing an attacker probes. Aesparrow’s Web Application VAPT (Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing) combines deep manual testing with trusted tooling to find the flaws that automated scanners miss: broken access control, business-logic abuse, injection, and authentication weaknesses. You get a clear, prioritised picture of what a real attacker could do, and exactly how to fix it before it costs you.

API Penetration Testing & API Security Testing

APIs power your apps, partners and integrations — and they’re now the most attacked part of most modern platforms. Because APIs expose business logic directly, a single broken authorisation check can leak every customer’s data. Aesparrow’s API Security Testing (API VAPT) is built around the OWASP API Security Top 10 and goes deep on the flaws automated tools consistently miss: broken object-level authorisation (BOLA/IDOR), mass assignment, and business-logic abuse.

Red Team Services & Adversary Simulation

A penetration test answers "is this system vulnerable?" A red team assessment answers a harder, more valuable question: "if a determined attacker targeted our business, would we detect and stop them?" Aesparrow’s red team runs a goal-based, adversary-style simulation across people, process and technology — emulating real threat actors to test your detection and response, not just your patch levels.

Mobile Application VAPT & Penetration Testing

Your mobile app runs on devices you do not control, which makes it a uniquely exposed part of your attack surface. Aesparrow’s Mobile Application VAPT tests Android and iOS apps against the OWASP Mobile Top 10 — covering insecure data storage, weak cryptography, broken authentication and the client-server APIs behind them — using both static and dynamic analysis on real devices.

Network Penetration Testing & Network VAPT

Your network is the terrain an attacker moves through. Aesparrow’s Network VAPT assesses your internal and external infrastructure — servers, firewalls, routers, services and segmentation — to find the misconfigurations, exposed services, weak protocols and missing patches that let attackers gain a foothold and move laterally. We simulate real-world attacks to show you how secure your network really is.

AI & LLM Security Testing

AI is now part of your attack surface. Large language models, AI agents and autonomous workflows introduce risks that traditional testing was never designed to find — prompt injection, insecure tool use, training-data and prompt leakage, and unsafe automation that can act on a user’s behalf. Aesparrow’s AI & LLM Security Testing assesses your AI-powered features the way a real adversary would, aligned to the OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications and the NIST AI Risk Management Framework.

Virtual CISO (vCISO) Services

Not every organisation needs a full-time Chief Information Security Officer — but every organisation needs the leadership one provides. Aesparrow’s Virtual CISO (vCISO) service embeds senior security leadership directly into your business, giving you strategy, governance and executive-level direction without the cost of a full-time hire. We build and run a security programme aligned to your business goals, your customers’ expectations and the compliance frameworks you need to meet.

Cloud Security Assessment & Cloud Penetration Testing

The cloud does not fail the way old data centres did — it fails through misconfiguration. A single over-permissive IAM role, a public storage bucket or an exposed management port can undo everything else. Aesparrow’s Cloud Security Assessment reviews your AWS, Azure or GCP environment against the provider’s Well-Architected security guidance and the CIS Benchmarks, finding the configuration, identity and exposure issues that scanners and default settings leave behind.

SOC 2 Readiness & Compliance Consulting

For SaaS and technology companies, SOC 2 has become the price of doing business with enterprise customers. But a SOC 2 report is only as valuable as the controls behind it — and getting there can feel opaque and slow. Aesparrow makes SOC 2 practical: we take you from gap assessment through control design, evidence and audit, building a programme your team can actually operate rather than a box-ticking exercise that falls apart after the report is signed.

ISO 27001 Implementation & Consulting

ISO 27001 is the international standard for an Information Security Management System (ISMS), and increasingly the baseline enterprise customers expect before they will trust you with their data. Aesparrow guides you through the entire journey — from gap assessment and risk treatment to policies, controls and audit readiness — so certification becomes a milestone you hit on schedule rather than a scramble.

ISO 27001 Internal Audit Services

ISO 27001 requires you to run internal audits of your ISMS at planned intervals (Clause 9.2) — and to keep them independent of the areas being audited. For most teams that independence is hard to achieve internally. Aesparrow acts as your outsourced, independent internal auditor: we assess whether your ISMS conforms to the standard and to your own policies, and whether it is actually working in practice.

ITGC Audit (IT General Controls)

IT General Controls are the foundation your financial and application controls rest on — access management, change management, IT operations and backup, and system development. When ITGCs are weak, auditors cannot rely on the systems that produce your financial statements, and every downstream control is called into question. Aesparrow performs independent ITGC assessments that give your auditors, your board and your customers confidence in your control environment.

Third-Party Risk Assessment (TPRA)

Your security is only as strong as your weakest vendor. Every supplier with access to your data or systems extends your attack surface, and regulators and enterprise customers increasingly expect you to manage that supply-chain risk formally. Aesparrow builds and runs your third-party risk assessment programme — assessing the vendors that matter, quantifying the risk they carry, and giving you a defensible, repeatable process.

PCI DSS Compliance, Readiness & Penetration Testing

If your business stores, processes or transmits cardholder data, PCI DSS applies to you — and the fastest way to fail a formal assessment is to walk into it unprepared. Aesparrow provides PCI DSS readiness and gap assessment: we scope your cardholder data environment, measure you against the current PCI DSS requirements, and get you ready to pass, whether your validation is via self-assessment (SAQ) or a formal QSA-led assessment.

HIPAA Compliance Consulting

If your organisation handles protected health information (PHI), HIPAA is not optional — and its Security, Privacy and Breach Notification Rules carry real penalties. Aesparrow helps covered entities and business associates achieve and demonstrate HIPAA compliance through practical risk analysis, safeguard implementation and audit-ready documentation, without drowning your team in paperwork.

GDPR Compliance & Data Privacy Consulting

Data-protection law now reaches almost every business. The EU GDPR, along with privacy regimes worldwide, give individuals real rights over their data and impose real penalties for getting it wrong. Aesparrow helps you understand what personal data you hold, put the right controls and processes around it, and demonstrate accountability to regulators, customers and partners.
