“Continuing to minimize my workload. Spent hours learning Filemaker and created an app that met some of our business needs, but I knew the system was capable of much more. When I evaluated the time and effort it would take me to learn additional techniques within Filemaker, I knew the time had come to hire IT help. My relationship with Cranston IT and my assigned consultant has proven invaluable to reducing my data entry time and processing.”

Thorough, Actionable Email Security Audit Services

Advanced protection strategies for your business communications

Configuration Review

Detailed Configuration Review

An in-depth configuration review examines your email system’s settings, permissions, and access controls, identifying misconfigurations that could leave your business exposed. The audit checks for overprivileged accounts, unprotected mailboxes, and outdated policies, using a combination of automated tools and expert analysis. You’ll receive a clear breakdown of the risks found and prioritized recommendations to immediately strengthen your defenses.

User Activity Analysis

User Activity & Credential Analysis

User activity and credential analysis focuses on detecting inactive, unused, or potentially compromised user accounts, one of the most common threat vectors in breaches. This component identifies accounts with risky behavior, such as long periods of inactivity or repeated failed login attempts, and flags credentials that should be reset or removed. The result: a streamlined, safer email environment with reduced attack surface.

Phishing Exposure Testing

Phishing & Malware Exposure Testing

Phishing and malware exposure testing evaluates your current email filtering, anti-spam, and anti-malware protections. The audit simulates real-world attack scenarios, reviews past incidents, and benchmarks your system’s ability to block sophisticated phishing and malicious attachments. The outcome is a detailed report highlighting any gaps and practical steps to harden your defenses against advanced threats.

Compliance Assessment

Compliance & Policy Gap Assessment

A compliance and policy gap assessment reviews your email environment against industry regulations and best practices, including retention policies and encryption standards. This step highlights areas where your current approach may fall short, helping you address compliance gaps, reduce audit risk, and implement policies that support your business’s regulatory needs and reputation.

Remediation Planning

Remediation Planning & Reporting

Remediation planning and reporting delivers a tailored, prioritized action plan based on your audit results. You’ll get a comprehensive but easy-to-understand report that clearly explains each finding, its risk level, and step-by-step remediation guidance. This empowers your team to take immediate, confident action and track improvements over time for maximum impact.

Support Recommendations

Ongoing Support Recommendations

Ongoing support and monitoring recommendations ensure you’re not left on your own after the audit. You’ll receive expert suggestions for regular security reviews, user awareness training, and advanced monitoring tools, so your business stays ahead of evolving threats. This proactive approach helps you maintain a strong email security posture year-round.
