The question is not whether attackers will try, but how far they can get.

Find out where your systems are vulnerable. Test your defenses. Start with the most important fixes.

Penetration Testing

Choose the right penetration test

More than a vulnerability scan

Automated scanning helps identify potential weaknesses across an agreed scope. Manual testing examines context, access boundaries and business logic, validates findings and explores combinations of weaknesses where authorized. Tool output alone is not proof of exploitability, and no assessment can guarantee that every vulnerability has been found.

What can a penetration test tell you?

  • Could an internet-facing service open an unexpected attack path?
  • Do access controls hold across trust boundaries?
  • Which findings should be fixed first?

We tailor the evidence to the agreed objective so the report is useful to both engineers and decision-makers.

Penetration testing, step by step

1

Scope and written authorization

Scope and written authorization

Agree the systems, objectives, access levels, exclusions, test window, evidence handling and emergency contacts. Confirm authorization from the relevant asset owners before testing.

2

Controlled testing

Controlled testing

Combine discovery, automated checks and manual investigation within the agreed rules of engagement. Coordinate potentially disruptive actions and stop if safety conditions require it.

3

Evidence and reporting

Evidence and reporting

Document reproducible findings, affected assets, business impact and practical remediation guidance. Present technical detail alongside a management summary.

4

Remediation and retesting

Remediation and retesting

Support clarification of fixes and agree the scope and timing of retesting. Retesting checks the specified findings, it is not automatically a new assessment of the entire environment.

Frequently asked questions about penetration testing

Can testing affect production?

Yes. We agree safeguards, test windows and stop conditions first. A suitable test environment may reduce risk, but its differences from production must be understood.

What access do you need?

It depends on the objective. We agree whether testing is unauthenticated, uses supplied accounts or includes internal access.

Can you support an audit requirement?

Yes. Share the requirement so we can align the scope and evidence. Acceptance of the result remains with the relevant auditor or customer.

What happens before testing starts?

We hold a scoping discussion, review the target list and rules of engagement, and confirm contacts, credentials, test windows and reporting needs before any testing begins.

How long does a test take?

It depends on the number and complexity of targets, the access model and the depth required. We provide an estimate after scoping and explain what is included in the agreed test window.

Do you provide remediation guidance?

Yes. Findings include practical next steps, affected assets and supporting evidence. We can also discuss prioritization and retest the agreed fixes.
