Common questions

Cybersecurity FAQ

Quick answers to the questions we hear most often during scoping calls.

Are you certified to audit against the NCA ECC?+

Yes. Our security team holds NCA ECC implementation experience across financial services, government, and energy sector engagements, and we deliver the gap analysis, remediation plan, and evidence pack the regulator expects.

Do you offer 24/7 monitoring?+

Yes — our managed SOC service runs around the clock with on-call engineers. SLAs vary by tier; the standard tier is 15 minutes for critical alerts and one hour for high-severity.

Can you do a penetration test of my environment?+

Yes. We run external, internal, web-application, and wireless penetration tests, and provide a remediation-prioritized report you can hand to your developers and infrastructure teams.

What happens if I get breached?+

Call our incident response line. We engage within 60 minutes, contain the incident, preserve evidence, coordinate with law enforcement if needed, and produce a post-incident report with hardening recommendations.

Can you help with Aramco CCC certification?+

Yes. We support the full Aramco Third Party Cybersecurity Compliance Certificate (CCC) lifecycle defined under SACS-002: initial gap assessment against the CCC control framework, remediation planning and implementation, evidence pack preparation, submission through the Saudi Aramco e-Marketplace, and biennial renewal. We also support CCC+ for suppliers handling more sensitive Aramco data.

What is the difference between Aramco CCC and CCC+?+

CCC (Cybersecurity Compliance Certificate) is the baseline standard that all third-party suppliers must meet to do business with Saudi Aramco. CCC+ is the enhanced tier required for suppliers who handle more sensitive or critical Aramco systems and data. CCC+ includes additional controls around data protection, network segmentation, and incident response. We assess which tier applies to your contract scope and build the remediation plan accordingly.

How long does Aramco CCC certification take?+

A typical CCC engagement runs 8 to 14 weeks depending on your starting posture: 2–3 weeks for gap assessment, 4–8 weeks for remediation, and 2–3 weeks for evidence preparation and submission. Organizations that already have ISO 27001 or NCA ECC in place usually land at the shorter end because many controls overlap.
