Cybersecurity Assessment in Roswell, GA

Cybersecurity Assessment in Roswell, GA | COMNEXIA

COMNEXIA has been headquartered in Roswell, Georgia since 1991, and for 35 years we have watched Metro Atlanta businesses learn the same hard lesson: a breach is not a question of industry or company size, it is a question of which unpatched endpoint, misconfigured identity policy, or untested backup gets exploited first. A cybersecurity assessment gives Roswell and greater Atlanta businesses a documented, prioritized inventory of exactly those exposures before an attacker finds them. This page explains what that assessment covers, how COMNEXIA conducts it, and which compliance frameworks apply to businesses operating in Fulton County and across the Atlanta metro.

What a Cybersecurity Assessment Actually Measures

A cybersecurity assessment is not a checklist handed to you after a one-hour walkthrough. COMNEXIA's assessment maps your environment against real attack surfaces: endpoint coverage, identity controls, network segmentation, backup integrity, and employee susceptibility to phishing. Each finding is rated by exploitability and business impact, and every recommendation references a specific control change your team or ours can implement.

For Atlanta-area auto dealerships, the assessment also evaluates whether your environment satisfies the FTC Safeguards Rule (16 CFR 314.4), which requires dealerships to maintain a written information security program, designate a qualified individual, and conduct periodic risk assessments. If your dealership runs CDK Global, Reynolds and Reynolds, or Dealertrack as your DMS, we map each platform's network connectivity, data flows, and access permissions as part of the assessment scope, because each of those systems touches nonpublic customer financial information covered by the Safeguards Rule.

What COMNEXIA Reviews During the Assessment

• Endpoint detection coverage: We verify whether every workstation, server, and point-of-sale terminal is enrolled in SentinelOne EDR or Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, and we pull agent health reports to confirm active protection, not just licensing.
• Identity and access controls: We audit Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD) for conditional access policies, MFA enrollment rates per user, legacy authentication protocol status, and privileged identity assignments that violate least-privilege.
• Patch and configuration posture: Using NinjaOne RMM, we generate a full patch-gap report across endpoints and servers, identifying OS versions, missing critical patches, and software reaching end-of-life.
• Backup integrity and recovery readiness: We confirm whether backups follow a 3-2-1 architecture (three copies, two media types, one offsite or immutable cloud copy) and whether recovery tests have been run against a documented RTO target.
• Phishing susceptibility baseline: We review whether a phishing-simulation security-awareness training program is active or, if not, we run a baseline simulation campaign to measure click rates before training begins.
• Cloud workload exposure: For organizations running workloads in Azure, we review Microsoft Defender for Cloud secure score, open management ports, and storage account public-access settings.
• Compliance gap analysis: Depending on your industry, we map findings to FTC Safeguards Rule requirements for dealerships, PCI DSS requirements for businesses processing card payments, or HIPAA Security Rule technical safeguard requirements for healthcare-adjacent organizations in the Atlanta metro.

How the Assessment Process Works

The engagement begins with a discovery call where COMNEXIA documents your current toolset, user count, locations, and any known compliance obligations. We then deploy read-only assessment connectors through NinjaOne and request Microsoft 365 tenant read access via the Microsoft Secure Score and Entra ID audit logs. No agents are installed permanently during assessment-only engagements without your explicit sign-off.

Within the agreed scope period, we produce a written findings report organized into three tiers: critical exposures requiring remediation within 30 days, significant gaps to address within 90 days, and longer-term hardening recommendations. For Roswell dealerships that need to satisfy a Safeguards Rule audit, we also produce a summary memo structured around the nine elements in 16 CFR 314.4 so your qualified individual can present it to ownership or a board without translation.

If you move forward with COMNEXIA as your managed security provider, every finding maps directly into a remediation project with an owner, a timeline, and a follow-up verification step. Ongoing protection includes 24/7 SOC monitoring tied to your SentinelOne or Defender for Endpoint alerts, Microsoft Entra ID conditional access enforcement, and monthly reporting through your ticketing portal so you can see posture changes month over month, not just at annual review time.

When a dealership in Alpharetta or a professional services firm in Sandy Springs needs an assessor who understands both the FTC Safeguards Rule and the specific network architecture of a CDK-connected service lane, that combination of regulatory familiarity and local presence matters.
