Penetration Testing

Discover exploitable vulnerabilities before attackers do with fully scoped testing across networks, systems, applications and people.

Let our expert hackers secure your business by discovering security vulnerabilities before others do. We offer a comprehensive set of penetration testing solutions across networks, systems, applications and devices, giving organisations a clear view of exploitable risk and detection capability.

Security testing is fully customisable in scope and combines human creativity and intelligence with industry leading tools. Engagements are planned, governed and reported in a way that helps teams move quickly from findings to remediation.

Overview

Security testing with clear evidence, control and remediation guidance

We provide transparent scoping, legally governed engagement delivery and actionable reporting so organisations can validate exposure across infrastructure, applications, cloud and human risk.

Testing coverage

We provide a comprehensive set of testing options across networks, systems, applications and devices.

External Infrastructure

Test internet-facing assets to identify exploitable weaknesses across the external attack surface.

  • External
  • Network

Internal Infrastructure

Assess internal environments to understand how far an attacker could move after gaining access.

  • Internal
  • Lateral movement

Web Application

Validate web applications for exploitable flaws, business logic weaknesses and input-handling issues.

  • Web app
  • Manual assessment

Mobile Application

Assess mobile applications and associated workflows for practical security weaknesses and exposure paths.

  • Mobile
  • Application security

Cloud Security Configuration

Review cloud configuration and architecture choices to identify misconfiguration and privilege risks.

  • Cloud
  • Configuration

Social Engineering

Run bespoke phishing engagements to test end-user behaviour and strengthen awareness through evidence-led reporting.

  • Awareness
  • Phishing

IT Health Check

Broader security review activity to identify weaknesses that could undermine resilience across the environment.

  • Assurance
  • Risk visibility

CREST registered security testing

CREST security testing is delivered to a high standard by qualified testers, and reports must identify the testing organisation rather than being white labelled. Our security partners can deliver CREST testing and reports on behalf of other CREST companies where needed.

Penetration testing delivery overview

Each engagement follows a controlled process that keeps scope, legal cover and reporting clear from start to finish.

Scoping and planning

A scoping call with stakeholders determines requirements and informs the number of days required. Once accepted, a planning call gathers technical detail such as URLs, IP addresses and locations.

Rules of Engagement

A legal Rules of Engagement document is produced and signed by both parties before any testing begins, and a short kick-off meeting confirms readiness.

Testing execution

Testing is conducted using a standardised methodology approved by CREST and incorporating National Cyber Security Centre guidance.

Report and retest

A findings report with recommendations is delivered within 3 working days, with free retesting of specific vulnerabilities available within 60 days of the initial report.

Social engineering and email phishing campaigns

Social engineering assessments are designed to test people as well as technology. Our partners deliver bespoke phishing engagements tailored to each organisation, with scenarios, target lists and whitelisting agreed in advance.

  • A scoping call defines campaign objectives and level of complexity.
  • A planning call confirms the target list and scenario selection.
  • Clients can provide target emails to reduce OSINT costs and avoid including internal security staff.
  • Testing domains are ideally whitelisted before the campaign begins.
  • A Rules of Engagement document is signed before any activity starts.
  • Themed emails are staggered across a week to maximise realism.
  • Reports are delivered within 3 working days and cover emails sent, emails opened, links clicked, submitted data and emails reported.
  • No passwords are recorded during the engagement.
