Security Audits & Compliance
Security Audits That Go Beyond the Checklist
From vulnerability assessments to incident response planning, we help you identify risk, align with compliance, and prevent the next data breach — not just document it.
What’s the Difference?
Vulnerability Assessment
It’s a technical snapshot — fast, automated, and focused on known weaknesses like open ports, outdated software, and misconfigured systems.Risk Assessment
It asks a deeper question: If this vulnerability is exploited, what does it actually mean for your business?Risk assessments layer in threat likelihood, impact on operations, data exposure, and real-world attack paths.
Audit
A cybersecurity audit combines technical insight and business context into a complete picture.
It shows you what’s vulnerable, how serious it is, what to do next, and how to align with frameworks like PDPA or ISO 27001.Whether you need to meet PDPA requirements, prep for ISO 27001, or reduce your exposure to data breaches in Singapore, we provide clarity, context, and a roadmap forward.
Our Security Audit & Compliance Services
Explore the components of our audit services — tailored to your environment, risk profile, and regulatory requirements.
Vulnerability Assessment
Automated and manual scans that uncover weak points in your network, applications, and configurations — prioritized by severity and exploitability.
Cybersecurity Risk Assessment
We go beyond technical exposure to assess business impact. This includes threat likelihood, risk scoring, and action-based recommendations.
Policy & Governance Review
We evaluate your security policies, incident protocols, and internal practices — identifying compliance gaps and documentation issues.
Compliance Readiness (PDPA, ISO 27001)
Get audit-ready with guided alignment to local and international standards, including the Cybersecurity Agency of Singapore (CSA) best practices.
Incident Response Planning
Review or build your response plan — covering escalation procedures, roles, communication, and recovery protocols.
Not sure where your biggest security gaps are?
Want a Deeper Test?
Audits Identify Risk. VAPT Puts It to the Test.
Penetration testing (VAPT) simulates real attacks to show you how threats can move through your systems — beyond what a traditional audit reveals.
It’s the next step after identifying your risk surface.
Why Us
Why Businesses Choose Webpuppies
Security isn’t one-size-fits-all — and neither are we.
Here’s what makes our approach different from generic audit providers or off-the-shelf scanners.
Audits with Context — Not Just Code
We don’t dump auto-generated scan results into a PDF.
Our team interprets findings, maps them to business risk, and delivers recommendations you can actually use.
Sector Experience You Can Trust
Our cybersecurity audits have supported platforms in government, banking, healthcare, education, and high-growth tech — each with unique compliance demands and stakeholder structures.
Built in Singapore, Trusted Regionally
We understand local regulations (PDPA, CSA) and how they intersect with global frameworks (ISO 27001, NIST).
We help you navigate local audits, client requirements, and regional procurement.
Access to CREST-Certified Testing Partners
Need deeper testing? We work with vetted CREST penetration testing teams to provide end-to-end visibility without bloating your vendor list.
Procurement-Ready Documentation
Clients use our audits to pass third-party vendor risk reviews, pre-sales security assessments, and internal compliance gates.
We know what procurement teams look for — and how to deliver it clearly.
Our 3 Pillar Structure
Our audits aren’t just standalone exercises — they’re designed to slot into a complete cybersecurity strategy, grounded in three core pillars: Prevention, Protection, and People.
Discovery
We start by understanding your environment — infrastructure, applications, policies, and goals.
This includes vulnerability scans, system mapping, and access reviews to surface technical and operational exposure.
Key activities:
- Vulnerability assessment
- System and asset discovery
- Stakeholder interviews (optional)
Alignment
We translate technical findings into business risk — aligning with your compliance framework (PDPA, ISO 27001, CSA) and internal security goals.
This phase ensures the audit fits your procurement, board, or regulatory context.
Key activities:
- Cybersecurity risk assessment
- Policy and governance review
- Compliance mapping
Action
We don’t stop at the report. We give you a prioritized remediation roadmap, executive-friendly summary, and optional guidance for next steps — from VAPT to response planning.
Key activities:
- Actionable audit report
- Risk-based remediation plan
- Optional follow-up support or implementation advisor
When Is the Right Time to Audit?
Most companies wait until something breaks.
The smart ones audit before that happens.
You don’t need a breach to justify a cybersecurity audit — you need clarity, confidence, and compliance. Here are key moments when it’s time to take a serious look at your risk surface:
You’ve launched a new product or platform
New systems introduce new vulnerabilities. A post-launch audit identifies blind spots before attackers do.
You’re preparing for procurement or client reviews
Enterprise clients, financial institutions, and government contracts increasingly demand security documentation. We help you pass security assessments with confidence.
You’ve experienced a breach or suspicious activity
Whether it was a full incident or just a near miss, now is the time to understand how it happened — and how to prevent it next time.
Frequently Asked Questions about
Security Audits
A cybersecurity audit provides a full overview of your risk posture — including policy, process, and technical vulnerabilities.
A penetration test (VAPT) is more targeted, simulating real-world attacks to actively exploit those vulnerabilities.
At minimum, annually — or whenever there’s a major change to infrastructure, compliance requirements, or vendor relationships. High-risk industries often audit quarterly.
Our audits are mapped to PDPA, ISO 27001, and CSA guidelines. We also adapt for NIST, MAS TRM, or client-specific frameworks as needed.
Both. We tailor the audit scope to your business size, industry, and current security maturity — making it actionable whether you’re a startup or a regulated enterprise.
You receive a full report with prioritized findings, plus an optional debrief session. We can support implementation directly or coordinate with your internal/third-party teams.
No. Our assessments are designed to be non-invasive and can be run with minimal downtime. Most scanning is done during off-peak hours or in parallel.
Yes. Our audits are often used to pass procurement reviews, RFP security requirements, and enterprise vendor evaluations — especially in banking, fintech, and government.
We’ll guide you on what’s needed. Typically, we request scoped access to infrastructure and policy documentation — with full NDAs in place.
We offer both. Many clients start with a one-off audit, then engage us for quarterly security reviews, incident readiness checks, or compliance support.
That’s what we’re here for. We’ll walk you through each step, explain our findings in plain English, and deliver recommendations you can actually act on.
