Services / Penetration Testing
CREST-aligned penetration testing services covering web applications, infrastructure, cloud environments and social engineering. Find vulnerabilities before attackers do.
Testing scope
OWASP Top 10 and beyond, covering authentication, authorisation, injection, business logic and API security.
Internal and external network infrastructure, including servers, firewalls, VPNs and network devices.
AWS, Azure and GCP configuration review and penetration testing, covering IAM, storage, compute and network controls.
Phishing simulations and pretexting exercises to test your team's resilience to social engineering attacks.
Use cases
Penetration testing is relevant at multiple points in your security and compliance journey, not just as a one-off exercise.
SOC 2, ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials Plus and other frameworks require evidence of penetration testing. We provide compliant testing and documentation.
Before launching a new product or service, validate that your application and infrastructure are secure.
Regular penetration testing provides ongoing assurance that your security controls remain effective as your environment evolves.
Following a security incident, penetration testing validates that the vulnerability has been remediated and no related weaknesses remain.
Enterprise customers increasingly require evidence of recent penetration testing before onboarding new vendors.
When migrating to or expanding your cloud footprint, penetration testing validates the security of your new environment.
Process
A rigorous, methodology-driven approach that goes beyond automated scanning to find the vulnerabilities that matter.
We agree the scope, target systems, testing methodology and rules of engagement. You receive a formal scoping document for sign-off.
We conduct passive and active reconnaissance to understand your attack surface, identify exposed assets and gather intelligence on your environment.
Using a combination of automated scanning and manual testing techniques, we identify vulnerabilities across your target scope.
We attempt to exploit identified vulnerabilities to validate their severity and understand the real-world impact of a successful attack.
We produce a comprehensive report covering all findings, with executive and technical sections, CVSS scores and remediation guidance.
We debrief your team on findings and, once remediation is complete, conduct a retest to verify that vulnerabilities have been addressed.
Deliverables
Comprehensive reporting designed for both technical and non-technical audiences, with everything you need for remediation and compliance evidence.
A board-ready summary of findings, risk ratings and recommended remediation priorities, written for non-technical stakeholders.
A detailed technical report covering every vulnerability identified, including proof-of-concept evidence, CVSS scores and remediation guidance.
A prioritised list of remediation actions, sequenced by risk severity, with clear guidance on how to address each finding.
Once you have addressed the findings, we conduct a retest to verify that vulnerabilities have been effectively remediated.
Documentation suitable for use as evidence in SOC 2, ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials Plus and other framework audits.
A technical debrief with your engineering team to walk through findings, answer questions and agree remediation priorities.
Tell us what you need testing and we will scope a penetration test that gives you the assurance you need.
