Are you still relying on one-time pen tests? It's time to upgrade.

One-time security penetration tests often fail to identify critical vulnerabilities, exposing your business to potential attacks.

Continuous, proactive security penetration testing is essential to maintain a robust security posture and protect your organisation from sophisticated cyber threats.

We put in place a program to contunously simulate the behaviours of real cyber attacks on your company in order to constantly identify your expolitable attack surfaces. We will then provide you with accurate representations of the real attack pathways in your environment from the weaknesses we are always uncovering.

As a CISO or IT leader, you therefore get regular insights on your company's current cyber posture so you can compare it to your ideal future roadmap.

Penetration Testing FAQs

What is penetration testing?

Penetration testing, or pen testing, simulates cyberattacks to identify vulnerabilities in your systems that could be exploited by malicious actors. This process involves both automated tools and manual techniques to uncover security weaknesses.

Why do I need penetration testing?

Penetration testing is crucial for identifying and addressing security gaps before attackers can exploit them. It helps ensure compliance with industry regulations, protects sensitive data, and demonstrates a commitment to security to stakeholders and customers.

How often should penetration testing be conducted?

The frequency of penetration testing depends on various factors, such as regulatory requirements, changes to your environment, and the criticality of the systems. Generally, it is recommended to perform penetration tests at least annually or whenever significant changes are made to your systems.

What types of penetration testing do you offer?

•Network Enumeration

•Internal Pen Testing

•External Pen Testing

•AD Password Audit

•N-Day Tests

What is the difference between a vulnerability scan and a penetration test?

A vulnerability scan is an automated process that identifies known system vulnerabilities. A penetration test, however, involves manual testing by security experts to exploit vulnerabilities and understand their potential impact, providing a more thorough and actionable assessment.

Will penetration testing disrupt my business operations?

Properly planned and executed penetration tests are designed to minimise disruptions. We coordinate with your team to schedule tests conveniently and take precautions to ensure business continuity.

How long does a penetration test take?

The duration of a penetration test varies based on the scope and complexity of the environment. Typical engagements range from one to three weeks, but this can be adjusted to meet your specific needs.
