Penetration and vulnerability testing
Every live network carries weaknesses. Testing finds them, proves what they expose, and produces an improvement path that can be measured rather than asserted.
Testing that goes past the checklist
Every network, without exception, carries a number of weaknesses. Testing exists to uncover them and to recommend a measurable, actionable path to closing them. Those weaknesses never reach zero on a live network, so the useful question is which ones an attacker can reach and what they reach next.
We assess more deeply than the conventional methodology, and we are willing to act as a second-opinion provider on a network another firm has already tested. That lets you validate the position an earlier tester advised rather than take it on trust.
Scope
Penetration testing establishes the security posture of the network by assessing the vulnerabilities of your ICT infrastructure and developing a security improvement plan against them, so that the network stays secure, reliable and available.
- Network and infrastructure penetration testing
- Vulnerability assessment of the logical and administrative components of the network
- Dedicated secure code testing, so that software is assessed before it goes live rather than after
- Retest and reissue once remediation is complete
How the work is delivered
We deliver in concert with our international partners, who work with us both on site and remotely. Rules of engagement, testing windows and escalation contacts are agreed in writing before anything begins.
Work that usually runs alongside this
IT infrastructure health assessment
A structured review of the ICT estate — hardware, software, configuration, access and security risk — ending in a remedial plan your team can work through and your auditors can follow.
Read moreComplete attack surface monitoring
Continuous analysis of everything of yours that is reachable from the internet, with the exposures ranked by what they would cost you rather than by scanner score.

Cross-border business runs on standing in a recognised standard. We take an organisation to certification and keep it in good standing afterwards.
