IT Security Audit Services
EXEO assesses your systems, configurations and compliance to map your real exposure, then delivers a prioritized action plan you can act on. Run by certified security experts.
What is an IT security audit?
An IT security audit is a structured assessment of your systems, configurations and processes to measure your real exposure and your compliance with security standards. It identifies vulnerabilities, misconfigurations and gaps against frameworks such as ISO 27001 and NIS 2, then turns them into a prioritized action plan.

Our approach
How an IT security audit works
01 / Scope
We define the perimeter and your objectives: risk, compliance or certification.
02 / Assess
Vulnerability, configuration and compliance review against the relevant frameworks.
03 / Report
Prioritized findings with business impact, ranked by what matters most.
04 / Remediate
We help you close the gaps, and can operate your security afterwards.
Why run an IT security audit?
Regulations such as NIS 2 and DORA require organizations to assess and document their security posture. Beyond compliance, an audit reduces real risk and gives leadership a clear, evidence-based view of exposure. An audited and hardened environment is also easier to monitor through a managed SOC.
Compliance
Meet NIS 2, DORA and GDPR requirements with documented evidence of your posture.
Risk reduction
Find and close the gaps an attacker would use, before they do.
Board visibility
Give management a clear, prioritized view of exposure and what to fix first.
Verified security commitments
EXEO maintains a security management system aligned with international standards and holds the ExpertCyber label.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is an IT security audit?
A structured assessment of your systems, configurations and processes to identify vulnerabilities and measure compliance with standards such as NIS 2 and ISO 27001, resulting in a prioritized action plan.
Do you audit against ISO 27001?
Yes. Our compliance audit measures your gaps against ISO 27001, and we support you through to certification. See our ISO 27001 consulting services.
What is the difference between an audit and a penetration test?
An audit reviews your configurations, processes and compliance to map your overall exposure. A penetration test actively exploits vulnerabilities to prove what an attacker could do. They are complementary.
What does an IT security audit include?
Typically: vulnerability assessment, configuration and hardening review, compliance measurement against NIS 2, GDPR and ISO 27001, and a prioritized remediation plan.
How much does an IT security audit cost?
The cost depends on the scope and the size of your environment. We provide a quote after a short scoping call.
