Technical Security Assessment Lead
Penetration testing is a simulated attack on a network, system or even physical premises to identify vulnerabilities. Using industry-leading tools and techniques, our accredited testers complete technical security assessments to exploit vulnerabilities, determine defence improvements and condense these into clear, human-readable remediation strategies tailored to your environment.
Our penetration testing services
Physical penetration testing
We provide physical penetration tests to identify weaknesses, validate security measures, and assess how prepared your staff are for real-world incidents. Physical penetration testing is like giving your security a stress test; it spots the weak points, checks if your defences are up to scratch, and sees how your team handle potential breaches. By simulating real-world attacks, it highlights gaps, ensures you’re playing by the rules, and preps you for anything from casual attempts to targeted strikes.
Network penetration testing
We operate the capability to assess and improve security across a variety of domains. Using the latest threat intelligence and real-world experience, we tailor each test to your business needs and the latest attacker tactics, techniques and procedures.
Web app penetration testing
Web application testing assesses vulnerabilities in websites and corresponding components such as APIs. Using approaches ranging from non-authenticated and authenticated penetration testing, alongside access to web application source code, it is possible to identify and provide mitigations against common vulnerabilities which could jeopardise sensitive data hosted on your website.
M365 Security Review
We offer Microsoft 365 security assessments to audit configurations in licensing, privilege delegation, identity management, conditional access and more, with an aim to provide a comprehensive overview of vulnerabilities with actionable recommendations to enhance security. By completing a Microsoft 365 security assessment, you can fully understand the risks that are posed to you from all aspects of the Microsoft 365 suite.
Vulnerability Assessment Services
Using industry-leading frameworks and experience, we can identify technical vulnerabilities and remediation strategies for diverse IT estates. We strive to provide holistic vulnerability insights, in a human-readable form while minimising the risk. The approach and outputs are tailored to your needs, to fulfil your testing objectives and streamline remediation.
Active Directory
Active Directory is still one of the largest identity providers on the market, due to this it is a major attack surface for organisations. Conducting a security review on active directory is crucial to identify and mitigate vulnerabilities and misconfigurations, ensure proper access control and protect sensitive data. It helps maintain the integrity, confidentiality and availability of the network, reducing the risk of security breaches.
