Penetration testing and IT security audits
Find the gaps before attackers do.
A vulnerability scanner produces a list of CVEs and an average CVSS score. It will not tell you that three of those vulnerabilities chain together into a path from an ordinary user account to domain administrator. We test that by hand — across the network and inside the web application — and we show you step by step how we did it.
Testing follows the OWASP, PTES and OSSTMM methodologies, within a scope agreed in writing and in time windows you choose. The audit is independent in the plain sense of the word: the team that built the application is not the team that checks it. The report has two layers: technical proof for the team, and conclusions for the board — answering what to fix first and how much it actually changes.
Network Penetration Testing
Simulate real-world attacks against your external and internal network infrastructure to uncover exploitable vulnerabilities.
- External and internal network penetration testing
- Active Directory security assessment
- Privilege escalation and lateral movement testing
Web application security audit
Deep-dive manual testing of web and mobile applications following OWASP methodologies — including the APIs and business logic a scanner never touches.
- Web and mobile application testing (OWASP Top 10)
- API security and business logic testing
- Source code review and static analysis
Human vector and physical security
Inside a pentest we check whether someone can walk into the office without a badge, extract data over a single phone call, or get a bank account number changed. Social engineering at the scale of a whole organisation — phishing, smishing, vishing — runs as a separate service.
- Telephone pretexting and data extraction attempts
- Wireless network security assessment
- Physical security testing and badge cloning
Cloud & Infrastructure Review
Assess your cloud configurations and infrastructure hardening against industry best practices.
- Cloud configuration review (AWS, Azure, GCP)
- Container and Kubernetes security assessment
- Executive summary with risk-rated remediation roadmap
