Sanctus Cybersecurity Sanctus Cybersecurity

Cybersecurity Services for Iowa Businesses

Whether you're responding to an insurance questionnaire, preparing for a vendor security assessment, or investigating after a breach scare in your industry — we have the right engagement for where you are today.

Security Posture Review

Starting at $3,000

Your cyber insurance renewal came with a questionnaire you couldn't finish. A customer asked about your security program and you didn't have a great answer. Sound familiar?

A Security Posture Review is the best starting point for organizations that haven't had a recent security evaluation or aren't sure where they stand. We look at how users access systems, how MFA is used, how data is backed up, how remote access works, and how cloud services are configured.

You receive a prioritized roadmap focused on practical improvements your existing team can implement — not a 200-page report that collects dust.

  • Access controls, MFA, and account hygiene
  • Endpoint and patch management practices
  • Cloud, VPN, and remote access usage
  • Backup and recovery readiness
  • Logging, monitoring, and alerting basics

Vulnerability Assessment

Starting at $2,500

A business in your industry got breached and you're wondering: could that happen to us? Or your IT team says you should "do something about security" but you're not sure what.

A Vulnerability Assessment combines broad-coverage scanning with manual validation to identify missing patches, insecure services, and misconfigurations across your environment. It's ideal for ongoing security hygiene or as a precursor to deeper penetration testing.

We help you prioritize which systems to address first and provide practical guidance so your existing IT team can remediate issues efficiently.

Penetration Testing

$5,000 – $15,000

Anyone can run a scan and hand you a list of vulnerabilities. We go further — we show you what an attacker could actually do with those vulnerabilities. That's the difference between knowing you have an unlocked door and watching someone walk through it.

Penetration testing simulates real-world attackers. We focus on how far an attacker could get, what they could access, and what impact that would have on your business.

External Network Penetration Test

Simulated attacks against your internet-facing systems to identify exploitable vulnerabilities before real attackers discover them.

Internal Network Penetration Test

Models a compromised workstation or VPN account. We identify lateral movement paths, privilege escalation opportunities, and segmentation gaps.

Web Application Penetration Test

Manual deep-dive testing of authentication, authorization, session management, APIs, and business logic aligned with OWASP Top 10 and real-world attack patterns.

Cloud Security Review

Starting at $4,000

You moved to the cloud but aren't sure if it's configured securely. Default settings aren't secure settings.

A focused review of your cloud environment (AWS, Azure, or GCP) identifying misconfigurations and risky patterns that attackers commonly exploit.

  • Identity and access management (IAM) configuration
  • MFA, key usage, and access key hygiene
  • Network security groups, firewalls, and segmentation
  • Storage permissions and public access
  • Logging, monitoring, and alerting coverage
