Parameter Security —
Penetration Testing, PCI QSA & vCISO

Parameter Security conducts network penetration testing (internal and external), web and mobile application penetration testing, and social engineering assessments including phishing simulations and physical security testing. Each engagement begins with scoping to define objectives, rules of engagement, and target systems — followed by a detailed report with exploited findings, risk ratings, and prioritized remediation guidance.

A PCI QSA (Qualified Security Assessor) assessment is a formal evaluation of your compliance with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS). Organizations that store, process, or transmit cardholder data may be required to complete either a Self-Assessment Questionnaire (SAQ) — for lower-volume merchants — or a Report on Compliance (ROC) — for Level 1 merchants and service providers. Parameter Security's QSAs conduct both SAQ facilitation and full ROC assessments.

Parameter Security's virtual CISO service provides fractional security executive leadership — typically a set number of hours per month — covering security program development, risk assessments, security policy creation, vendor risk management, incident response planning, and executive or board-level reporting. A virtual Data Privacy Officer (vDPO) is also available for organizations managing GDPR, CCPA, or HIPAA privacy obligations alongside security requirements.

The AI Readiness Risk Assessment evaluates how an organization's adoption of AI tools, models, or workflows introduces new security and compliance risks — covering data exposure, model governance, vendor risk for AI SaaS tools, and emerging AI regulatory frameworks. It is relevant for organizations deploying generative AI, using AI-enabled SaaS, or anticipating AI governance requirements from regulators or cyber insurers.

Compliance Readiness assessments are point-in-time evaluations designed to identify gaps against a target framework — HIPAA, PCI DSS, NIST CSF, or AI governance — and provide a remediation roadmap. They are ideal for organizations preparing for a formal audit, seeking cyber insurance, or newly subject to a compliance requirement. Ongoing compliance management (maintaining controls, evidence collection, and continuous monitoring) is a separate engagement and can be structured as part of a vCISO or retainer arrangement.

An IR or DR tabletop exercise is a facilitated discussion-based simulation where key stakeholders walk through a realistic cyberattack or disaster scenario — a ransomware infection, data breach, or infrastructure outage — to test whether your incident response or disaster recovery plan holds up under pressure. Parameter Security designs the scenario, facilitates the exercise, documents gaps in the response, and delivers recommendations to strengthen your IR/DR playbook before an actual incident occurs.

No. Your engagement is directly with Parameter Security — Fibi is not a party to the statement of work or contract. Fibi helps match your organization to the right cybersecurity consulting firm based on scope, framework, and budget — then steps back. Our advisory is funded by a referral relationship with Parameter Security and does not affect the fees you pay.
