Frequently Asked Questions

Questions, answered

Is a security audit the same as a penetration test?

No. A security audit reviews how your website is set up and maintained, including access, updates, backups, and settings. A penetration test goes further, by actively trying to break in. Many businesses start with an audit, then add a penetration test if their risk calls for it.

Can a security audit guarantee that a website is safe?

No. No audit can promise a website will never be attacked. An audit finds known weaknesses and risky habits at one point in time, so you can fix them. Security also needs regular updates, backups, and reviews after the audit.
