CREST-certified penetration testing for web applications, infrastructure, cloud environments, and APIs. Find your vulnerabilities before attackers do.
What is penetration testing?
Penetration testing (pen testing) is an authorised, simulated cyber attack against your systems, applications, or infrastructure, conducted by skilled security professionals to identify exploitable vulnerabilities before malicious actors do.
Unlike automated vulnerability scanning, penetration testing involves manual, creative testing that mirrors real-world attack techniques. Our testers think like attackers, chaining vulnerabilities, bypassing controls, and demonstrating real business impact.
Penetration testing is required or strongly recommended by ISO 27001, PCI DSS, Cyber Essentials Plus, NIST frameworks, and many other compliance standards.
Testing services
Netru offers a full range of penetration testing services, from targeted application tests to full red team engagements.
OWASP Top 10 and beyond, testing web applications for injection flaws, authentication weaknesses, access control issues, and business logic vulnerabilities.
Internal and external network penetration testing, identifying misconfigurations, unpatched systems, and exploitable vulnerabilities across your infrastructure.
AWS, Azure, and GCP environment testing, assessing IAM configurations, storage permissions, network controls, and cloud-specific attack vectors.
REST and GraphQL API testing against OWASP API Security Top 10, authentication, authorisation, data exposure, and rate limiting vulnerabilities.
Phishing simulations and pretexting exercises to assess your workforce's susceptibility to social engineering attacks.
Adversary simulation engagements that test your detection and response capabilities against realistic, multi-stage attack scenarios.
Testing process
Every Netru penetration test follows a structured methodology, ensuring comprehensive coverage and actionable results.
We define the scope, objectives, and rules of engagement, ensuring the test is targeted, safe, and aligned with your business requirements.
Passive and active information gathering to understand your attack surface, domains, IP ranges, technologies, and potential entry points.
Systematic testing using manual techniques and industry-standard tooling to identify vulnerabilities across the defined scope.
Controlled exploitation of identified vulnerabilities to demonstrate real-world impact, without causing disruption to your operations.
A detailed report covering executive summary, technical findings, risk ratings, and prioritised remediation recommendations.
Our team is available to answer questions, clarify findings, and verify remediation, ensuring vulnerabilities are properly addressed.
How Netru delivers it
Our CREST-certified testers conduct thorough manual testing, not just automated scans. Every finding is validated, rated by risk, and accompanied by clear remediation guidance. We stay with you through remediation.
