Security Audits to Strengthen Compliance and Reduce Risk

No organisation is immune to the evolving threat landscape, and regular security audits are the most direct way to keep controls current and compliant. Agilient’s security audit service evaluates every layer of defence, pinpoints gaps and validates alignment with national and global frameworks. By uncovering weaknesses before they are exploited, we help reduce risk exposure and improve overall resilience so systems remain reliable and trustworthy.

What is a Security Audit?

A security audit is a structured assessment of both digital and physical safeguards. It involves reviewing infrastructure, policies, procedures and compliance status to verify that protections perform as intended. Common audit categories include the protective security policy framework (PSPF), ISO 28000 – Security Management Systems for the Supply Chain, ISO 22341:2021 – CPTED (Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design), AS 4485 Series – Security for Healthcare Facilities, IT, cybersecurity, and physical security, each measured against best-practice benchmarks such as ISO 27001, ISO 9001, and sector-specific regulations. The findings guide remediation and ensure your organisation remains on the right side of regulators and stakeholders alike.
