Cloud and email security for Newport Beach professional firms

Newport Beach is home to wealth management, private equity, legal and real estate firms that handle client money and confidential records every day. For these businesses, the biggest risks usually sit in Microsoft 365, cloud access and wire-transfer workflows.

OC Security Audit reviews the controls that stop account takeover and payment fraud: multi-factor authentication, Conditional Access, mailbox rules, admin roles and email authentication. We then check the firewall, Wi-Fi and remote access that connect your office to the cloud.

Our headquarters are a short drive away in Irvine, so meetings at your Newport Center, Fashion Island or airport-area office are easy to arrange.

In-person meetings, read-only testing

We meet your leadership at your office for the kickoff and the findings review, and walk the network closet or server room when one exists. Cloud and Microsoft 365 testing runs remotely with read-only access.

Firms with offices in other states get the same audit remotely, so every location is held to one standard.
