Identify unknown, unmanaged and externally exposed assets and validate material security exposures.

Analyse vulnerabilities and external exposures against exploitability and threat intelligence to determine actual organisational risk.

Conduct end-to-end cybersecurity assessments of third‑party service providers, including inherent risk assessment, security questionnaires, evidence review, control validation, risk rating and residual-risk assessment.

Perform cybersecurity due diligence and continuous assurance of critical third parties.

Assess fourth‑party/nth‑party dependencies and cyber‑risk propagation across the supply chain.
