Penetration Testing Services

Our CREST-certified ethical hackers attack your systems the way a real adversary would, chaining weaknesses together to establish what is genuinely exploitable rather than what merely appears on a scanner report. Testing is controlled, agreed in writing and delivered under NDA, so you can share findings internally without hesitation.

• External and internal network penetration testing
• Web application testing against the OWASP Top 10 and OWASP ASVS
• REST and GraphQL API security testing
• Mobile application testing for iOS and Android
• Microsoft 365, Entra ID and Active Directory attack-path testing
• Social engineering and phishing assessments
• Wireless and remote access testing

Engagements are scoped around the systems that carry the most risk, whether that is a customer-facing booking platform, a payment flow, a new application about to launch, or the internal estate behind a recently migrated cloud environment. If you are unsure what needs testing, we will tell you honestly what we would test and why.

Coverage across the entry points real attackers use, tested manually and evidenced with reproduction steps, impact and a clear fix.

• SQL injection and database attack paths (critical)
• Authentication and MFA bypass (high)
• Cross-site scripting and client-side injection (medium)
• Broken access control and privilege escalation (critical)
• API authorisation, rate limiting and data exposure flaws (critical)
• Session management and token weaknesses (medium)
• Insecure file upload and remote code execution (high)
• Cryptographic flaws, secrets exposure and misconfiguration (high)
• Weak patch levels, default credentials and exposed services (high)
• Phishing susceptibility and credential hygiene through social engineering (medium)

If your question is not covered here, a consultant will answer it directly, with no sales script.

Will testing take our systems offline? No. Exploitation is controlled and rate-limited, and destructive checks are explicitly excluded or agreed in advance. Where a test carries any operational risk, it is discussed during scoping and scheduled outside business hours.

Do you need credentials? For most application and internal network tests, authenticated testing gives a far more realistic picture and is strongly recommended. External-only testing is available where credentials cannot be shared, though it only demonstrates what an anonymous attacker can see.

Is testing safe on production? It is when scope is agreed properly. We test production where it matters most, using controlled techniques inside agreed monitoring windows, and we agree an emergency stop process with a named contact before testing begins.

How often should we test? Annually is the common baseline, but a new application, a cloud migration, a major infrastructure change or a new client contract should each prompt a retest of the affected area. We recommend a cadence that fits your risk profile rather than a fixed package.

What happens if you find something critical mid-test? We stop, notify your named escalation contact and agree whether to continue. Critical findings are never held back for the final report.
