The assessment is performed 100% remotely using an encrypted professional remote support connection — similar to ConnectWise Control. After you book, AT4TP sends you a simple session link or small connection file. You run it, our technician connects securely to your device, and the assessment begins. There is nothing permanent to install — the session tool closes completely when we are finished and leaves no ongoing access to your machine. You can watch everything that happens on your screen in real time throughout the session. No travel, no shipping your device, no disruption to your office.

No. The assessment reviews security settings, configuration, software inventory, and system-level controls — not the content of your client files. We look at where files are stored and how access is controlled, but we do not open, view, or retain any client data. AT4TP treats all information from your device with strict confidentiality.

The $599 single device assessment covers one device — either your laptop or your desktop PC. The $999 Laptop & PC Bundle covers both devices in a single engagement, delivering a combined report and a WISP that documents both machines. The bundle saves $199 versus booking two separate assessments. If you use both a laptop and a PC at any point during the year to access client data, the FTC requires both to be covered in your WISP — making the bundle the more complete compliance solution.

A single device assessment typically takes 1–2 hours depending on the complexity of your setup. The Laptop & PC Bundle takes 2–3 hours total. Most of this time your device runs scans in the background — you do not need to sit and watch the screen the entire time. Your written report and completed WISP are delivered within 48 hours (single device) or 48–72 hours (bundle) after the assessment is complete.

The assessment report includes specific, plain-language remediation recommendations for every issue found. Many fixes — like enabling BitLocker, turning on MFA, or installing updates — can be done by the device owner following the instructions in our report. For more complex remediation (such as network configuration or secure storage setup), AT4TP can discuss additional support services. If you have our Secure Virtual Desktop subscription, most of these issues are already resolved at the platform level — the assessment will reflect that.

Yes — and if you already have a WISP, this is actually the most important thing you can do. We will check whether your current WISP accurately reflects the security state of your actual devices. If there are discrepancies between what your WISP says and what your machine actually does, an FTC audit or post-breach investigation will find them. Our assessment ensures your WISP is truthful — and we update your document based on actual findings. The FTC Safeguards Rule also requires periodic review and testing of your safeguards, which this assessment satisfies.

Yes. AT4TP provides both the written assessment report and the completed WISP document in Spanish upon request. We also conduct the assessment session in Spanish if preferred. Contact us at info@at4tp.com and let us know your language preference when booking.
