Why Conduct an Audit with KHIPU?
Your network perimeter is changing. KHIPU’s dual-audit approach ensures your foundation is both optimised and secure.
- Resilience Mandate: Prepare for stricter reporting and supply-chain assurance requirements. We align our audits with the NCSC Cyber Assessment Framework (CAF).
- Eradicate ‘Shadow IT’: Discover unauthorised devices and hidden vulnerabilities that traditional scanners miss.
- Performance Optimisation: We don’t just find risks; we find bottlenecks. Optimise your Wi-Fi and LAN for the high-density demands of 2026.
- Compliance Ready: Whether it’s DSPT or Cyber Essentials Plus,we provide the auditable evidence you need.
Our Assessment Pillars.
Network Infrastructure
& Wi-Fi Audit
- Physical & Logical Survey: We assess the health of your cabling, switching, and core architecture.
- Spectrum Analysis: Identifying RF interference and coverage gaps in your wireless environment.
- 100% Coverage Guarantee: If KHIPU conducts your onsite survey, we guarantee the performance of the final design.
- Performance Baseline: Measuring latency, throughput, and jitter against modern enterprise standards.
Cyber Security & Vulnerability Assessment
- Vulnerability Assessment Service (VAS): Automated and manual scanning to detect internal and external weaknesses across your IT estate.
- Firewall & Policy Review: Ensuring your security is optimised and free from configuration drift.
- Phishing & Human Risk: Simulated campaigns to identify your organisation’s appetite for risk and employee awareness levels.

Audit & Assessment FAQs.
How long does a typical cyber security audit take? More
A baseline assessment can typically be completed in 3–5 days, while a full enterprise-wide infrastructure and security audit may take several weeks depending on the number of sites and the complexity of the environment.
What is the impact of the 2026 Cyber Security and Resilience Bill? More
The bill expands regulation to more sectors and managed service providers. It requires much faster incident reporting (within 24 hours) and places a statutory obligation on supply-chain security. Our audits are designed to help you meet these new, stricter standards.
Do we get a report we can show to auditors? More
Yes. You receive a comprehensive, executive-level report detailing your vulnerabilities, performance bottlenecks, and a clear, prioritised remediation roadmap suitable for compliance boards and insurance providers.
Can you audit a network you didn't install? More
Absolutely. We often provide independent third-party audits for organisations looking to validate their current infrastructure or prepare for a major digital transformation project.
What is ‘Phishing as a Service’? More
This is a controlled, simulated phishing attack designed to test your staff’s awareness. It helps identify human vulnerabilities so you can provide targeted training where it is needed most.
