Cyberattacks are increasing in frequency. No organisation is completely safe from the risks and threats of these attacks.
Current defensive strategies aren’t well suited to mitigating prolonged attacks by cyberattackers who are highly organised and well-funded.
Frame provides a range of cybersecurity, threat and risk assessment services to help protect your valuable information assets.
What you can expect
A better understanding of how and where your information assets are vulnerable to cyberthreats, and what you can do to protect them.
Penetration tests identify vulnerabilities, and also provide recommendations for treatments that help you prioritise ICT and digital security spending.
Tests are performed by highly qualified and experienced security professionals, using premium tools and best practice methodologies.
We give you an indication of operational deficiencies that are the likely root cause of vulnerabilities. Then, we work with you to determine treatments that are pragmatic and effective, so you’re able realise real value.
Frame’s fixed-price packages provide excellent value and are designed to help you quickly assess your risks and prioritise the necessary steps to protect systems.
Frame’s cybersecurity assessments are designed to identify gaps in your security capability. We recommend practical steps to protect your systems and data, as well as how to respond to, and recover from a cyberattack incident.
The result? The information you need to:
- align cybersecurity activities with your business requirements, risk tolerances and resources
- determine which activities are important to your critical service delivery, and to prioritise investments to maximise the value of each dollar spent
- address cybersecurity risks as part of your organisation’s risk management processes
- apply the principles and best practices of risk management to improving your security and ICT infrastructure resilience
- provide a consistent and iterative approach to identifying, assessing and managing cybersecurity risk.
As you adopt new ICT and digital services, increase connectivity to partners, and change routing or gateway controls, firewalls become more complex. Hundreds of rules accumulate, and a single erroneous rule can have serious consequences for your information security and applications performance.
Frame’s firewall health check is designed to identify gaps in your gateway security and recommend steps to protect your systems and data, optimise performance, and adhere to compliance requirements such as PCI-DSS.
A firewall health check lets you:
- gain an accurate picture of your firewall health, including hardware, software, global properties, security policies, patches, software updates, licensing, support, and disk and memory usage
- identify and treat security weaknesses, performance bottlenecks and lifecycle risks
- configure your firewall to the latest vendor and best practice standards
- increase firewall performance and application response times
- comply with PCI-DSS which requires periodic review of firewall rule sets
- adhere to industry best practices for firewall protection of systems and information
- maximise the investment in your existing firewall by deferring costly upgrades.

We use many of the same tools and techniques that criminal hackers would use to attack you.
