FAQ

Common questions

Do you need access to our systems?

Most of the assessment is done through interviews, documentation review, and read-only configuration review. We agree on scope and access up front.

Will you try to sell us a product?

No. Hawkcrest is vendor-agnostic. Recommendations are based on your risk and the tools you already own wherever possible.

Can you help fix what you find?

Yes. After the assessment we can support remediation, provide fractional vCISO leadership, or hand the roadmap to your internal team or MSP.
