Build & Configuration Review Services

A misconfigured or overlooked setting within a system can serve as a potential entry point for cyber attackers. Anything like an improperly configured firewall or a default password can pave an entry door for attackers to access sensitive data of the organisation. A build configuration review provides a comprehensive overview of the security of your assets that can lead to a significant reduction in cyber attacks at an early period of your asset lifecycle. The review process not only reduces cyber threat incidents but also establishes Secure Configuration Baselines for your organisation assets in general.

What is Build Configuration Review?

It is the process of identifying system vulnerabilities with the help of systematic assessments and also ensuring that the system is aligned with the best practices.

A professional holds a tablet displaying a service dashboard titled “Frequently Asked Questions,” surrounded by icons representing knowledge, solutions, answers, and support. The setup includes a clean, organized desk with a keyboard, calculator, meeting notes, and glasses—symbolizing precision and process. This visual encapsulates the structured, detail-oriented nature of Build & Configuration Review Services, where every system component—hardware, software, and settings—is critically evaluated to ensure secure, standardized, and compliant infrastructure builds. The image reinforces the importance of documentation, clarity, and governance in securing IT environments from the ground up.

Misconfigured systems are one of the leading causes of security breaches across modern IT environments. From cloud deployments to on-premise servers, even minor missteps in system setup can leave critical infrastructure vulnerable to exploitation. Our Build & Configuration Review Services are designed to identify, analyze, and remediate configuration weaknesses before attackers can exploit them.

 

A Build & Configuration Review is a proactive assessment that evaluates your servers, applications, devices, cloud instances, and system images against industry best practices, security benchmarks, and compliance standards. It ensures that every layer of your IT stack—operating systems, databases, middleware, and network devices—is hardened, standardized, and secure.

 


 

🧩 What We Review:

 

  • Operating System Hardening:
    Validate system configurations, service settings, user permissions, and patch levels for Windows, Linux, and UNIX-based systems.

  •  

  • Server & Workstation Builds:
    Assess baseline build images to ensure they comply with secure deployment standards and are free of unnecessary services or vulnerabilities.

  •  

  • Database Configuration:
    Review database server setup (e.g., MySQL, Oracle, MSSQL) for weak permissions, misconfigured ports, default accounts, and unencrypted connections.

  •  

  • Application & Web Server Settings:
    Evaluate settings in Apache, Nginx, IIS, Tomcat, and others for insecure default values, logging weaknesses, and exposed admin consoles.

  •  

  • Cloud & Virtual Infrastructure:

  • Review cloud configurations (AWS, Azure, GCP) and virtualization platforms (VMware, Hyper-V) to check for open ports, poor IAM practices, or inadequate monitoring.

  •  

  • Network Device Configuration:
    Inspect routers, firewalls, and switches to validate ACLs, firmware versions, encryption settings, and segmentation rules.

  •  

  • Security Controls & Logging:
    Ensure that logging, alerting, and access control mechanisms are properly configured and actively monitored.

  •  


 

🛠️ Why It Matters:

 

  • Prevent attackers from exploiting default or weak settings

  •  

  • Align with CIS Benchmarks, NIST, ISO 27001, and other standards

  •  

  • Strengthen the security baseline of your IT infrastructure

  •  

  • Ensure repeatable, secure deployments across all systems

  •  

  • Minimize the risk of lateral movement and privilege escalation

 

  • Support compliance, audit readiness, and DevSecOps practices

  •
