Universal Protection, Tailored Precision: Cybersecurity for Every Sector
Cyber threats don’t discriminate—they target every industry, from startups to global enterprises. At Aevora, we understand that while the fundamentals of offensive cybersecurity apply universally, the stakes and vectors vary by sector. Our expert team delivers customized penetration testing, red team simulations, OSINT investigations, and security awareness training to address your unique risks, ensuring compliance, resilience, and peace of mind.
Whether you’re in a highly regulated field like finance or a dynamic space like e-commerce, we adapt our services—drawing on OWASP, NIST, and MITRE ATT&CK frameworks—to fortify your defenses without disrupting operations. From initial scoping to post-engagement re-testing, we partner to make security a strategic advantage.
Key Industries at Risk of Cyber Attacks
Financial Services and FinTech
In the dynamic landscape of financial services and fintech, where digital transactions underpin global economies, organizations face escalating cyber threats that can erode customer confidence and invite severe penalties. Our tailored cybersecurity services address these pressures head-on, blending proactive testing with strategic hardening to safeguard assets and ensure uninterrupted operations.
- Challenges: Rising incidents of sophisticated fraud schemes, such as account takeovers and identity theft; critical API vulnerabilities that expose sensitive transaction data to interception or manipulation; and intense regulatory scrutiny under standards like PCI-DSS and SOX, demanding rigorous audit trails and data integrity controls.
Healthcare & Life Sciences
From patient records to groundbreaking research, cyber criminals want it all. We specialize in fortifying these ecosystems against disruptions that could compromise care delivery or research integrity.
- Challenges: Frequent leaks of Protected Health Information (PHI) through misconfigured databases or unsecured endpoints; rampant ransomware attacks zeroing in on Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems, often leading to operational shutdowns; and stringent HIPAA compliance requirements that mandate encryption, access logging, and breach notification protocols.
E-Commerce & Retail
E-commerce and retail thrive on seamless customer experiences, but the influx of online shoppers exposes platforms to exploits that can derail sales and damage reputations. We help these businesses build robust defenses that scale with demand, turning potential vulnerabilities into competitive advantages.
- Challenges: Exploits targeting payment gateways, such as SQL injection or cross-site scripting that enable card skimming; supply chain attacks infiltrating vendor integrations to propagate malware; and vulnerabilities amplified by seasonal traffic spikes, like Black Friday surges, which strain security controls and increase the window for DDoS or credential stuffing.
Technology & SaaS Providers
Technology and SaaS providers fuel innovation at breakneck speed, but rapid development cycles often outpace security, inviting flaws that ripple through customer ecosystems. We embed security into the innovation pipeline, enabling faster, safer deployments without stifling creativity.
- Challenges: Inherent codebase flaws like buffer overflows or insecure deserialization in microservices; risks from third-party integrations, such as unvetted APIs introducing backdoors; and emerging exploits targeting AI and Large Language Models (LLMs), including prompt injection or model poisoning that undermine trust in automated systems.
Education
Educational institutions are digital hubs for knowledge dissemination and student development, yet they grapple with an ever-expanding attack surface from remote learning tools and vast repositories of personal data.
- Challenges: Escalating ransomware attacks disrupting learning management systems (LMS) and administrative operations, with a 69% surge reported in Q1 2025; breaches of student records violating FERPA privacy standards, exposing sensitive information like grades and health data; and phishing campaigns targeting faculty and students via unsecured email and collaboration platforms, amplified by the shift to remote and hybrid models.
Government & Public Sector
Public sector entities shoulder the responsibility of safeguarding citizen data and national interests, navigating a complex web of mandates amid evolving geopolitical threats. As former defense specialists, we deliver mission-critical security that aligns with federal imperatives and enhances operational readiness.
- Challenges: Protecting classified data from espionage via insider leaks or advanced persistent threats; implementing zero-trust architectures to meet FedRAMP and CMMC mandates, which require continuous monitoring and supply chain vetting; and resource constraints in scaling defenses across legacy and cloud-hybrid infrastructures.
Media & Entertainment
The media and entertainment industry thrives on captivating content and live engagement, but its high-profile data—scripts, unreleased media, and fan databases—draws cybercriminals aiming for piracy, extortion, or reputational harm. We tailor pentests to the creative chaos of production pipelines, safeguarding intellectual property while supporting uninterrupted audience experiences.
- Challenges: Intellectual property theft through breaches in content management systems, enabling widespread piracy; DDoS attacks overwhelming streaming services during peak events like premieres, as seen in rising incidents tied to geopolitical tensions; and emerging AI-generated threats, such as deepfake manipulations or prompt injections targeting generative tools for content creation
Manufacturing & Industrial IoT
In manufacturing and industrial IoT environments, where interconnected devices drive production efficiency, cyber-physical threats can cascade into physical harm or costly halts. Our industrial-grade assessments protect these vital operations, minimizing risks without interrupting the assembly line.
- Challenges: Exposed Operational Technology (OT) and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems vulnerable to remote exploits; insecure remote access points exploited by nation-state actors or insiders; and supply chain disruptions from compromised firmware updates, leading to manipulated machinery or halted production.
These are just highlights—Aevora supports all industries, from energy and education to logistics and media. No matter your field, our expert team ensures thorough, non-disruptive evaluations tailored to your tech stack and threat model.
