A compromise assessment is a thorough examination of an organization’s systems and networks to determine if there has been unauthorized access or compromise by threat actors. This assessment involves analyzing indicators of compromise (IOCs), suspicious activities, and anomalous behavior within the environment. By leveraging advanced threat detection technologies and methodologies, such as endpoint detection and response (EDR) and network traffic analysis, compromise assessments aim to identify any signs of unauthorized access, data exfiltration, or malware presence that may indicate a security breach. The findings of a compromise assessment enable organizations to promptly respond to and mitigate potential threats, minimize the impact of security incidents, and strengthen their overall security posture. Additionally, compromise assessments are often conducted as part of incident response preparedness efforts to ensure organizations are equipped to detect and respond effectively to security breaches.
