Strengthen cyber security with expert penetration testing services

Certified penetration testing on your applications, systems and networks to identify vulnerabilities before attackers do

Specialist penetration testers to keep you
ahead of cyber threats

Penetration testing – or pen testing – identifies security weaknesses before they become business-critical threats. Regular security checks help protect your business, meet compliance requirements and safeguard customer data.

But we know testing should go beyond basic vulnerability scanning. That’s why our professional pen testing services combine specialist manual assessments with automated checks. The result for you is an in-depth, comprehensive information security assessment.

Cybercriminals constantly adapt their methods. Our expert penetration testing keeps you ahead of attackers – exposing vulnerabilities before they do.

How we work

We go beyond just assessing. Using different types of penetration testing, we’ll help you spot, analyse and fix gaps in your cyber security and business operations.

Thorough assessment process

We follow the OWASP Web Security Testing methodology for a structured, rigorous security assessment. Our process includes information gathering, attack simulation, risk validation and exploitation scenarios. After, you’ll receive reporting with clear recommendations. Each stage is designed to identify vulnerabilities, assess real-world risks and provide actionable solutions to strengthen security controls.

Identify security risks

Thorough penetration testing helps businesses understand their exposure to cyber threats and prioritise security improvements. Assessing web applications, networks and systems for security weaknesses is essential in preventing data breaches. By evaluating each system, we help uncover weaknesses like misconfigurations, software vulnerabilities and authentication flaws that cybercriminals could exploit.

Strengthen incident response strategies

Simulated cyber attacks gauge the ability to detect, contain and respond to security incidents. Using real-world attack scenarios, we gain valuable insight into how well your security controls perform under pressure. These assessments help security teams refine their response plans, close gaps in defences and reduce recovery times after an attack.

Prevent financial and reputational damage

A cyber incident or data breach can cause long-term financial loss. It can also bring regulatory fines and loss of customer trust. By spotting vulnerabilities before attackers do, we reduce the potential attack surface for your business. In the long term, regular security testing further strengthens defences, reduces risk and reassures customers that their data is protected – building trust and loyalty.

Why work with us?

Years of hands-on experience

With a team of cyber security experts and years of hands-on experience, we help businesses like yours spot vulnerabilities, make improvements and strengthen their security posture.

Check your defences against real threats

We understand how hackers think. So, we use the same techniques they would. Using a range of scenarios, this provides a realistic assessment of your organisation’s ability to detect and respond to cyber incidents. This way, we identify genuine, real-world security threats before they can be used against you.

Test your systems from many angles

Our penetration testing services cover your entire attack surface. We carry out a broad range of tests – including web applications, mobile apps, external and internal networks, social engineering and phishing assessments, APIs and wireless network security functionalities.

Each examines vulnerabilities, identifies potential attack vectors and validates security flaws. Combining automated tools with manual testing, we deliver a comprehensive assessment with clear next steps.

Comply with industry standards

Penetration testing supports compliance with industry regulations such as PCI DSS, ISO 27001, GDPR and SOC 2. Our structured assessments align with governance frameworks, helping you meet your security obligations. With this, you can provide documentation demonstrating compliance to regulators, customers and stakeholders. All this while strengthening security policies and risk management strategies.

Stay secure in the long term

Our post-assessment support includes risk assessments and remediation roadmaps. Working with CTOs, development teams and IT leaders to implement security recommendations, we’ll help you secure your key systems for years to come. This helps you improve security controls, reduce vulnerabilities and maintain a proactive, future-ready security posture.
