Our Password Audit service is designed specifically for Active Directory environments, identifying weak, easily guessable, or reused passwords that could be exploited by threat actors.
We assess password strength across user accounts by identifying patterns or configurations that make them easy to guess or crack. This includes dictionary attacks, brute force testing, and pattern analysis.
Our process identifies commonly used, default, or weak passwords, as well as reused passwords across accounts. Reuse represents a major risk, as an exposed password on one system could lead to lateral movement in the network.
Using open-source intelligence (OSINT) techniques, we search for known breached credentials that may be connected to your organisation or its users. This includes scanning databases of exposed passwords, checking against known breaches, and identifying accounts that may already be compromised.
We evaluate your current password policies and their alignment with security best practices. This includes reviewing password complexity, expiration policies, multi-factor authentication (MFA) configurations, and user privilege assignments.
Findings are shared in our real-time reporting portal and summarised in a detailed PDF report, making it easier to prioritise and implement corrective actions. We also offer guidance and support to ensure your organisation addresses the findings effectively.

A penetration test, also known as a pentest, is a simulated cyber attack on a computer system to identify vulnerabilities and weaknesses. Securebytes provide pentesting services to help businesses strengthen their security.
A penetration test is a snapshot in time assessment, providing a momentary evaluation of the security posture of a system or network. As technology and security landscapes evolve, new vulnerabilities may emerge, making it important to conduct periodic assessments to maintain a robust security stance. For most companies we typically recommend a penetration assessment is conducted annually or after any major changes to applications or systems. However, for some companies that are rapidly deploying new services or changes this could be as often as quarterly.
The duration of the test is based on the scope. The Securebytes® team work with clients to understand their penetration testing requirements and understand their risks to determine the most appropriate scope.
Some common types of cyber threats include malware, ransomware, phishing attacks and Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks. These threats can cause significant damage to your digital assets and compromise your business operations.
