Cybersecurity & Risk

Cybersecurity & Risk

We help federal agencies and enterprises find weaknesses before adversaries do, close them, and prove compliance. Offensive testing, defensive engineering, and governance, delivered by security-cleared specialists.

Overview

What we deliver

Security is not a checkbox. AdvanSys delivers a full-spectrum cybersecurity and risk practice spanning adversarial testing, cloud and infrastructure hardening, and the governance that turns posture into provable compliance. Teams operate against MITRE ATT&CK, the OWASP Top 10, and NIST 800-53, so findings map directly to the controls your auditors expect.

Every engagement reduces real risk and produces evidence. We prioritize what matters, remediate alongside your team, and prepare you for FedRAMP, CMMC, HIPAA, and MARS-E assessments.

Capabilities

What this practice covers

Red Team & Adversarial Simulation

Goal-based attack simulation using MITRE ATT&CK, including phishing, lateral movement, and privilege escalation, to test detection and response.

Penetration Testing & VAPT

Black, grey, and white box testing across applications, APIs, and infrastructure, aligned to the OWASP Top 10 with exploit-validated findings.

Cloud Security Assessment

Configuration, IAM, encryption, and logging review across AWS, Azure, and GCP, mapped to Zero Trust and CIS benchmarks.

Risk, Governance & Compliance

Control assessment and readiness for NIST 800-53, FedRAMP, CMMC, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, MARS-E 2.0, and ISO 27001.

Cyber Resilience

Incident response planning, business continuity, disaster recovery, SIEM, and endpoint hardening that limit blast radius.

Strategic Security Consulting

Program-level advisory: security architecture, roadmap, and the operating model to sustain posture over time.

Why it matters

Outcomes you can defend

Security work that reduces real risk and produces the evidence assessors and authorizing officials expect, not a scanner export and a handshake.

Approach

A disciplined, repeatable method

01

Assess and threat-model

We define the assets, threats, and compliance obligations that frame the engagement.

02

Test and validate exposure

We exploit and verify findings so you triage real risk, not scanner noise.

03

Remediate with your team

We fix alongside your engineers and re-test to confirm closure.

04

Govern and certify

We package evidence for assessors and stand up controls to keep you compliant.

Federal Relevance

Built for federal scrutiny

Federal security work demands cleared people and defensible evidence. AdvanSys aligns to the frameworks agencies are measured against and supplies the security-cleared talent to execute inside controlled environments.

  • NIST 800-53 and RMF control assessment and ATO support
  • FedRAMP and CMMC readiness and remediation
  • HIPAA and MARS-E 2.0 for health and benefits data
  • Security-cleared engineers available through our staffing practice
Questions

Frequently asked questions

Do you provide both offensive testing and defensive engineering?
Yes. We run red team and penetration testing engagements and also build the defensive controls, monitoring, and incident response capability to act on what testing reveals.
Which compliance frameworks do you support?
NIST 800-53 and the Risk Management Framework, FedRAMP, CMMC, HIPAA, MARS-E 2.0, PCI-DSS, and ISO 27001. Engagements produce the evidence assessors and authorizing officials require.
Can you operate in cleared or controlled federal environments?
Yes. Through our staffing practice we supply security-cleared specialists who can work inside controlled environments.
How do you prioritize findings?
Every finding is validated and ranked by exploitability and business impact, so your team fixes what reduces real risk first.
