Under Attack?
Configuration build review
Identify insecure configurations before attackers exploit them.
Integrity360’s Configuration build Review service assesses the security of your systems, devices and cloud environments against recognised hardening standards, vendor guidance and your organisation’s risk profile.
Our cybersecurity specialists identify misconfigurations, excessive permissions, insecure default settings and gaps in system hardening. You receive clear, prioritised recommendations that help your teams reduce risk, strengthen resilience and demonstrate compliance.

What is a Configuration Build Review?
A Build and Configuration Review is an independent security assessment of how a system, platform or device has been configured.
Even fully patched technologies can remain vulnerable when services are unnecessarily enabled, permissions are too broad, default settings remain unchanged or security controls have not been implemented correctly.
Integrity360 reviews your configuration against recognised security benchmarks and established good practice. We then assess each finding in the context of your environment, business operations and potential exposure.
The result is a practical view of where your configuration creates risk and what your organisation should do to address it.
Building security from the ground up
Every configuration is a potential door or window for a threat actor to exploit.
A Build and Configuration Review involves assessing the security and efficiency of system configurations to ensure they align with best practices and organisational policies. This review helps identify misconfigurations, vulnerabilities, and compliance issues, ensuring systems are optimally set up to minimise security risks and support reliable, secure operations.
Through a series of specialised assessments, we target servers, desktops, laptops, mobile devices, network devices, and cloud environments to identify vulnerabilities, ensuring your organisation's defences are optimised against evolving cyber threats.
Seal every entry point with our detailed, methodical approach to configuration reviews.

Configuration build FAQs
What is a configuration and build review?
A configuration and build review assesses the security of your system or application configurations to ensure they align with industry best practices, compliance standards, and your organisation’s risk profile. It helps prevent misconfigurations that could be exploited by attackers.
Why are secure configurations important?
Misconfigurations are one of the most common causes of cyber breaches. Unsecured services, default credentials, or overly permissive access controls can create serious vulnerabilities. A configuration review helps you identify and fix these issues before they’re exploited.
How often should a Configuration Build Review be performed?
What systems can be reviewed?
Integrity360 reviews configurations across a wide range of environments, including:
-
Servers (Windows, Linux)
-
Databases (SQL, Oracle, MongoDB)
-
Firewalls and routers
-
Cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP)
-
Virtualisation and container platforms
-
Workstations and mobile devices
-
Applications and web servers
What standards are used during the review?
Reviews are based on globally recognised benchmarks and guidelines such as:
-
CIS Benchmarks
-
NIST security frameworks
-
ISO/IEC 27001
-
Vendor-specific hardening guides
-
Best practices developed by Integrity360
What does the review process involve?
The process includes collecting and analysing configuration data, identifying deviations from best practices, evaluating associated risks, and providing detailed, prioritised remediation guidance for improving system hardening.
How does this support compliance requirements?
Configuration reviews support compliance with frameworks like ISO 27001, PCI DSS, NIS2, DORA, and Cyber Essentials. These standards often require evidence of secure system configuration and regular control validation.
Is this service suitable for cloud and hybrid environments?
Yes. Integrity360 provides in-depth reviews for cloud-native, on-premise, and hybrid environments. We also assess cloud service configurations, IAM policies, and platform-specific risks in AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud.
What makes Integrity360’s configuration review service different?
Integrity360 combines automated analysis with expert interpretation. Our reports are clear, actionable, and mapped to real-world risk—not just checklists—ensuring meaningful improvements to your organisation’s security posture.
