Practice Areas

Intelifix bridges the gap between offensive adversary simulation and institutional governance.

External Network Penetration Testing

Strategic Objective: Identify and neutralize entry vectors on your perimeter.

Request Assessment →

Our External Network Penetration Testing service assesses internet-facing assets to find exploitable vulnerabilities before malicious actors can access your internal systems.

Scope of Assessment

  • External firewall rule validation and egress/ingress evasion testing.
  • DMZ segmentation and isolation analysis.
  • Cryptographic profiling of internet-facing services (TLS, SSH, VPN).
  • Web application ingress endpoints and exposed API gateway vulnerabilities.
  • Exposure profiling via Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) and credential stuffing caches.

Key Deliverables

  • Executive Risk Presentation: Strategic summary for the Board and Risk Committee.
  • Technical Remediation Runbook: Step-by-step reproduction steps, exploit payloads, and defensive code/configuration adjustments.

Cloud Vulnerability & Security Architecture Audits

Strategic Objective: Eliminate architectural drift and enforce sovereign cloud controls.

Request Audit →

As enterprise infrastructure shifts to AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, or co-located private hypervisors, standard perimeter defenses are no longer sufficient. Intelifix conducts exhaustive technical audits to secure your cloud environments.

Technical Focus Areas

  • Identity and Access Management (IAM): Identification of toxic privilege combinations, unrotated access keys, and lateral privilege escalation vectors.
  • Data Lake & Object Storage Protection: Validation of access controls, transit/rest encryption policies, and public access blocks.
  • Network Micro-segmentation: Audit of Virtual Private Clouds (VPCs), Security Groups, Network Security Groups (NSGs), and transit hubs.
  • Container & Orchestration Security: Security audits of Docker images, container registries, and Kubernetes cluster configurations.

Key Deliverables

  • Complete Cloud Security Posture Matrix scored against the CIS Benchmarks.
  • IAM Least-Privilege Remediation Plan.

ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Advisory & GRC Engineering

Strategic Objective: Transform governance frameworks into business enablers.

Discuss Compliance →

Achieving ISO 27001 certification should not be a check-the-box exercise. Intelifix designs Information Security Management Systems (ISMS) that streamline operations, elevate organizational trust, and meet complex regulatory mandates.

Implementation Roadmap

  • Phase 1: Diagnostic Assessment & Gap Analysis

    Comprehensive audit of existing policies, processes, and technical controls against the 93 controls in Annex A of ISO/IEC 27001:2022.

  • Phase 2: Risk Assessment & Treatment Formulation

    Designing risk registers, Statement of Applicability (SoA), and organizational risk methodologies.

  • Phase 3: ISMS Design & Documentation

    Drafting mandatory policies, including Access Control, Incident Management, Cryptography, and Secure SDLC.

  • Phase 4: Internal Pre-Audit & Certification

    Performing formal internal audits and supporting your team throughout external certification audits.

Regulatory Interlock

  • Co-designed to satisfy Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Cybersecurity Guidelines.
  • Integration with the Nigeria Data Protection Act (NDPA 2023) compliance frameworks.
