“We never thought it could happen to us.” It’s the most common phrase business owners say after a breach. But the reality is this: hackers target businesses that assume they’re too small to be noticed or too niche to be attacked. And they do it through methods no automated scanner can detect 100% of the time. This is why it is essential to involve security experts to do regular assessments. There’s a categorical difference in the assessment when it’s done by a third party expert too. They’re using techniques that closely align with how hackers think, looking for exploitable oversights.
Your company has worked hard to earn the trust of clients, partners, and stakeholders. A single breach can shatter that trust overnight—leading to lost business, regulatory fines, and even bankruptcy.
To tackle these challenges, companies have 3 options to choose from. The deliverables range from an automatically generated report offering false sense of security to a balanced bang-for-buck security insights, all the way to full-fledged penetration testing.
Automated Scanners | Security Assessment | Penetration Testing | |
---|---|---|---|
Scope | Basic vulnerability scan | Using Multiple Automated tools + Expert review and custom reporting | 40–80 hours of manual work of IT security engineers + social hacking tests |
Outcome | General vulnerability list | Detailed report + Zoom/Phone walkthrough with an engineer | Simulated attacks + defense strategies tested |
Social Engineering | Not tested | Mentioned, but not deeply evaluated | Actively tested—focuses on human vulnerabilities |
Compliance Support | Limited or template-based reports | Detailed, verified, reports explained by security engineers | Audit-ready deliverables for compliance testing |
Cost & Time | $0–6000/y PER TOOL. Instant report. | $1900 one-time fee. Delivery in 7 days, written report plus Zoom call. | Cost varies on IT infrastructure. Delivery within 30 days. |
Every business gets serious about IT security. Some do it after a breach. Some are proactive and protect their infrastructure and staff as a disaster avoidance strategy. Hackers are opportunistic, preying on companies that are easy targets. Don’t wait until it’s too late. A small investment today, to make your business more secure and less of a target, can save millions tomorrow. Take control of your cybersecurity and protect what matters most.

We can help you figure out what’s your next best IT Security step that will protect your company’s revenue and reputation.
Automated tools run through a series of tests with little critical thinking or thinking like hackers do. They generate reports that sometimes may even contradict themselves. The Security Assessment is done by a security expert. The report is then written by a security engineer, and you get to talk to the engineer on a Zoom or phone meeting, so you walk through the report together and discuss specific details and action steps.
We provide prioritized action steps and guidance for remediation.
Yes, this is not a detailed audit. This is a Risk Assessment. So we’re feeling the pulse, or checking the compass of sorts, to see if you’re moving in the right direction. A proper penetration testing is far more in-depth, and it is more expensive.
We coordinate testing schedules to minimize downtime while maintaining safety protocols. Some cooperation from your team will be needed, but we also try to make this as unobtrusive in your daily operations as possible.
The Risk Assessment is a short security checkup designed to evaluate key security concerns. Typically completed in about a day, it focuses on a set of security issues that Vancord frequently observes across its clients. The resulting deliverable provides concise detail and actionable findings in a report approximately a dozen pages in length.
In contrast, a penetration test is a significantly more comprehensive assessment, requiring 40-80 hours of hands-on engineering work. It focuses on both the identification and exploitation of vulnerabilities, with Vancord conducting thorough tests to uncover as many vulnerabilities as possible. Techniques employed range from identification of common vulnerabilities through automated processes, to the manual identification and exploitation of organization specific misconfigurations and weaknesses. The scope of penetration testing typically encompasses systems such as servers, workstations, security cameras, and other network-connected devices.
Yes. Our commitment is to dedicate Jan-Feb of 2025 to assess one company per day. So if you act now, you qualify for a 10% discount if you purchase a Penetration Test within 30 days.
