Industry Leading Offensive Expertise

Partner with a CREST Accredited, world-class team of offensive security experts to safely simulate real-world attacks and identify critical gaps in your defences.

1
External
External Attack Surface
+

External penetration testing targets your public-facing infrastructure—websites & servers, email gateways, VPNs, cloud interfaces, and more—from the perspective of an internet-based attacker. Our team identifies vulnerabilities like outdated software, misconfigured services, and exposed credentials that could provide an entry point into your network. We simulate threat actor techniques to assess how resilient your perimeter truly is. From reconnaissance to exploitation, we map your external attack surface and deliver clear, actionable results that help reduce exposure and protect against unauthorized access or data breaches.

2
Internal
Assumed Breach Simulation
+

Internal (Assumed Breach) penetration testing simulates an attacker who has gained access to your internal network—whether through a compromised user account, malicious insider, or rogue device. Our experts mimic these threats to uncover vulnerabilities in domain controllers, shared resources, internal applications, and misconfigured systems. This testing helps validate segmentation, privilege escalation risks, and lateral movement potential. This testing case is essential for understanding what a threat actor could do after breaching your perimeter. With detailed findings and remediation guidance, we help you harden your internal environment and reduce the risk of widespread compromise.

3
Wireless Network
WiFi Security Evaluation
+

Wireless networks are often the weakest link in enterprise security. Our wireless penetration testing identifies rogue access points, weak encryption, misconfigured authentication protocols, and insecure client behaviors. We simulate attacks such as deauthentication, credential harvesting, and man-in-the-middle to evaluate the security of your WiFi environment. Testing includes both the infrastructure and endpoint devices to uncover vulnerabilities across the full wireless attack surface. You’ll receive a detailed breakdown of risks and steps to harden your wireless configuration and reduce the chances of unauthorized access or network compromise.

4
Web Application
Application Vulnerability Testing
+

Web applications are a prime target for adversaries & threat actors. Our web application penetration testing identifies vulnerabilities like SQL injection, XSS, broken authentication, insecure APIs, business logic flaws and weaknesses in user permission boundaries. We exceed industry standards such as the OWASP Top 10 and go beyond automated scans to uncover complex, chained exploits. Whether public-facing or internal, custom-built or off-the-shelf, we assess your applications security posture and provide detailed guidance to strengthen its defences. You’ll receive a prioritised report with remediation steps to ensure your web apps are resilient against modern attack techniques.

5
Mobile Application
Mobile Security Analysis
+

Our mobile application penetration testing covers both iOS and Android platforms, analysing mobile apps for insecure storage, weak encryption, poor session management, and unintended data exposure. We assess both the app and its interaction with backend services to simulate real-world attack scenarios, including reverse engineering and runtime manipulation. Using a mix of static and dynamic analysis, we evaluate how your app protects user data and prevents tampering. You’ll gain assurance that your mobile application meets industry security standards while protecting both your users and your brand.

6
Cloud Environment
Cloud Infrastructure Assessment
+

Cloud environments are complex and constantly evolving, often introducing unique risks. Our cloud penetration testing evaluates the security of your cloud infrastructure—whether AWS, Azure, or GCP—focusing on misconfigurations, insecure IAM policies, exposed storage, and privilege escalation paths. We simulate cloud-native attacks to test access controls, resource segmentation, and identity federation. Whether hybrid or fully cloud-native, we help ensure your cloud environment is properly secured, compliant, and resilient against modern threats. Detailed reporting provides practical remediation steps to close gaps and strengthen your cloud security posture.

7
OT/SCADA Network
Industrial Control Testing
+

Operational Technology (OT) and SCADA environments control critical infrastructure—and a breach here can have real-world consequences. Our OT penetration testing assesses the security of industrial control systems (ICS), PLCs, HMIs, and associated networks. With deep expertise in OT protocols and safety-critical systems, we test for network segmentation, insecure interfaces, and unauthorized access risks—all while ensuring zero disruption to operations. We help you meet regulatory standards and proactively reduce the cyber risks to your industrial environment through targeted, non-intrusive testing and expert guidance.

8
Hardware
Device Security Analysis
+

Hardware penetration testing focuses on identifying vulnerabilities in embedded devices, IoT products, and physical interfaces. We assess the firmware, debug ports, wireless protocols, and hardware-level protections to simulate tampering, reverse engineering, or exploitation by a determined attacker. This includes side-channel analysis, data extraction, and bypassing authentication controls. Whether you're developing secure devices or deploying third-party hardware, our testing reveals critical security gaps before they’re exploited in the wild. You’ll receive detailed findings and secure design recommendations to protect against hardware-based threats.

9
Physical Security
Facility Access Testing
+

Even the best digital defenses can be bypassed with physical access. Our physical penetration testing evaluates how well your facilities prevent unauthorised entry, device theft, and insider threats. We attempt real-world breaches—such as tailgating, badge cloning, or accessing sensitive areas, to uncover weaknesses in access controls, surveillance, and human behavior. This testing highlights gaps in your physical security policies and response procedures. You'll receive a comprehensive report with findings, footage (if applicable), and actionable steps to reinforce your facility's security posture.

Penetration testing simulates real-world cyberattacks to identify vulnerabilities in your systems, applications, and infrastructure. It helps uncover security gaps before attackers do, validates existing controls, and provides actionable insights to improve your security posture.

At minimum, annually—or after any major infrastructure changes, software releases, or security incidents. High-risk environments or compliance requirements may call for more frequent testing.

No. Tests are designed to be safe and controlled. We carefully coordinate with your team, define acceptable boundaries, and ensure minimal to no impact on operations during the engagement.

A GRC assessment focuses on governance, processes, risk management, and compliance frameworks. It complements, but doesn't replace, technical testing like penetration tests, which evaluate specific systems or applications for vulnerabilities.

You’ll receive a detailed report outlining all findings, risk ratings, steps to reproduce and clear remediation steps. We also provide a debrief session to help contextualise results and support your remediation efforts.
