What usually brings people to this.
- No independent verification that controls actually hold
- Vulnerability scan output with no prioritisation
- Compliance obligations requiring evidence of technical testing
Simulate the real thing, then tell you exactly what to fix first
We evaluate the security posture of your network or application infrastructure against an agreed scope. Our team simulates real-world threats to identify vulnerabilities that could be exploited by malicious actors, then delivers actionable recommendations to enhance the security of critical systems and data. Findings are categorised high, medium and low so remediation effort goes where it matters.
-
01
Network infrastructure testing
Assessment across public-facing and internal network infrastructure.
-
02
Server infrastructure testing
Assessment of server infrastructure and its exposed services.
-
03
Endpoint security testing
Assessment of endpoint security controls in practice.
-
04
Cloud infrastructure testing
Security assessment of cloud infrastructure within the agreed scope.
How the engagement runs.
A defined sequence, so you know what is happening at any point and what comes out of each stage.
-
01
Information gathering
Understand the target before touching it.
- Understand the goal
- Understand the environment
-
02
Reconnaissance and network scanning
Map the attack surface within scope.
- Public interface scanning
- Private network scanning
-
03
Vulnerability assessment
Identify weaknesses across the mapped surface.
- Run vulnerability assessment tooling
- Identify vulnerabilities
-
04
Active exploitation
Verify which findings are genuinely exploitable, within the agreed rules of engagement.
- Controlled exploitation
- Proof of concept
-
05
Reporting and remediation
Turn findings into a prioritised plan of work.
- Risk ratings and impact analysis
- Remediation guidance
- Executive summary
What you receive.
- 01Comprehensive penetration test report

- Prioritised remediation rather than an undifferentiated finding list
Before you get in touch.
Do you only simulate external attacks, or internal ones too?
Both — network infrastructure testing covers public-facing and internal network infrastructure, alongside server, endpoint and cloud infrastructure testing within the agreed scope.
How are findings prioritised?
Findings are categorised high, medium and low so remediation effort goes where it matters, rather than delivered as an undifferentiated list.
Do you actually exploit vulnerabilities, or just identify them?
Active exploitation is part of the methodology — verifying which findings are genuinely exploitable, within the agreed rules of engagement, rather than stopping at a vulnerability scan.
How long does an engagement take?
15 days for assessment plus one week for reporting.
