What is a Network Audit?

A network audit is a thorough evaluation of the hardware on your current network.

It involves assessing your equipment, configuration, and security protocols to identify potential vulnerabilities and inefficiencies.

Our in-depth analysis helps you uncover issues before they arise, plan and budget better and boost your operational efficiency by identifying areas in need of upgrades.

We can pinpoint potential weaknesses in your current infrastructure and plan a path for improvement to not only improve your organisation, but ensure compliance with industry regulations.

Whether you're concerned about your network's security, performance, or scalability, a professional audit is the first step towards a more efficient and secure infrastructure.

Our Network Audit Process

Our network audit process covers every aspect of your infrastructure, from on-site surveys to actionable recommendations:

On-Site Audit and Survey

We begin with a physical audit of your network, reviewing all equipment (e.g. switches, access points) to understand how everything is interconnected. This helps us clearly understand your network's topology and deployment.

Configuration Review

Our experts evaluate the configuration of each piece of equipment. We check for outdated firmware, and security vulnerabilities, and ensure that best practices are being followed. We also review event logs to catch issues that may have gone unnoticed.

User Consultation

We speak with your team to understand their on-the-ground experience. This ensures that our findings align with the actual challenges your staff may face, providing a more holistic view of your network’s performance.

Comprehensive Report

We compile our findings into a detailed report, categorising issues by severity (e.g., high, medium or low level impact). This report also includes our tailored recommendations for optimising your network.

Collaborative Solutions

Based on the audit results, we work with you to address the identified issues. Whether it’s updating security protocols or improving network performance, our goal is to help you implement the solutions smoothly.
