FAQ
Frequently asked questions about Cybersecurity
Do SMEs need a cybersecurity assessment?
Yes. SMEs are equally targeted by phishing, ransomware and account takeovers, and often lack dedicated staff. Regular assessments identify the highest-risk gaps so they can be addressed in priority order.
What is the difference between a penetration test and a vulnerability scan?
A vulnerability scan uses automated tools to detect known weaknesses, costs less and can be run regularly. A penetration test is carried out by specialists who simulate attacks to verify whether weaknesses can actually be exploited, usually before launch or after major changes.
What determines the cost of a cybersecurity project?
Mainly the assessment scope (number of systems, networks and applications), depth of testing, whether compliance reporting such as ISO 27001 preparation is needed, and whether remediation and ongoing monitoring are included.
Is staff training part of cybersecurity services?
Most vendors offer phishing simulations and security awareness training, since human error is the most common entry point. State your headcount and preferred training format in the brief.
Do I need to disclose sensitive information when requesting cybersecurity quotes through QuoNow?
No. Your brief only needs to describe the types of systems and the general scope. Detailed information can be shared after signing a non-disclosure agreement with the matched vendor.
