Penetration Testing
Safely simulate modern cyber threats to uncover hidden vulnerabilities. Our accredited penetration testing services deliver actionable insights to enhance your security posture.
DEFINITION
What is penetration testing
While identifying and remediating vulnerabilities and misconfigurations is a fundamental part of cybersecurity, traditional approaches often fall short of reflecting how real-world attackers operate.
Often referred to as pen testing or ethical hacking – is a simulated cyberattack performed by security professionals to identify and exploit vulnerabilities in an organisation’s systems, networks, applications, or infrastructure. The goal is to understand how a malicious attacker could gain unauthorised access, cause damage, or exfiltrate sensitive data.
BENEFITS

Our Services
Infrastructure Penetration Testing
Infrastructure Penetration Testing is a comprehensive security assessment that simulates real-world cyberattacks on your organisation’s IT infrastructure. This includes evaluating internal and external networks, servers, firewalls, routers, switches, and other critical components to identify vulnerabilities that could be exploited by malicious actors.
Our expert penetration testers utilise a combination of automated tools and advanced manual techniques to assess the security posture of your systems. We identify potential weaknesses such as misconfigurations, outdated software, insecure protocols, and inadequate access controls. The aim is to uncover security gaps before attackers do—ensuring your infrastructure remains resilient against both external and internal threats.
Web Application Penetration Testing
Web Application Penetration Testing is a targeted security assessment designed to identify vulnerabilities within your web-based applications. By simulating real-world cyberattacks, we evaluate how your applications respond to various threat scenarios, helping you uncover weaknesses that could be exploited by attackers.
Our experienced testers manually and systematically assess your application for common and advanced vulnerabilities, such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), authentication and session management flaws, and insecure APIs. We follow industry-standard methodologies such as OWASP Top 10 and adhere to best practices to ensure a thorough and effective evaluation.
The goal is to help you understand your application’s security posture, comply with regulatory requirements, and protect sensitive user data. Our detailed report includes clear findings, risk ratings, and actionable recommendations to help you remediate vulnerabilities and enhance your application’s overall security.
Cloud Security Review
Cloud Security Review is a thorough assessment of your organisation’s cloud environment, designed to identify security gaps, misconfigurations, and compliance risks. Whether you’re using public, private, or hybrid cloud platforms, our review ensures your cloud infrastructure is securely configured and aligned with industry best practices.
Our security specialists examine your cloud architecture, identity and access management (IAM), data storage, network configurations, logging and monitoring, and security controls. We assess your environment against established frameworks such as CIS Benchmarks and cloud provider recommendations (e.g., AWS, Azure, GCP).
Server and End-User Device Review
Server and End-User Device Reviews are essential components of a robust cyber security strategy. This service involves a detailed assessment of your organisation’s servers, desktops, laptops, and other endpoint devices to ensure they are securely configured and protected against modern threats.
Our security professionals conduct thorough reviews focused on operating system configurations, user access controls, patch management, antivirus and endpoint protection, encryption, and logging. We identify potential vulnerabilities and misconfigurations that could be exploited to gain unauthorised access or move laterally within your network.
Mobile Application Assessment
Our Mobile Application Security Assessment is a comprehensive evaluation of your iOS or Android app, designed to identify vulnerabilities that could compromise user data, application functionality, or the integrity of your service. As mobile threats continue to evolve, securing your app is critical to maintaining user trust and regulatory compliance.
We perform in-depth testing using a combination of manual techniques and industry-standard tools to assess the app’s security, both on the device and through backend APIs. Assessments cover areas such as data storage security, authentication and session management, code obfuscation, insecure communications, and adherence to OWASP Mobile Application Security Testing Guide (MASTG) best practices.
NHS DTAC Assessments
As part of the NHS Digital Technology Assessment Criteria (DTAC), all digital health solutions are required to undergo penetration testing to demonstrate appropriate levels of cyber security. Our DTAC-specific Penetration Testing service is designed to help suppliers meet these mandatory requirements with confidence.
We conduct thorough and targeted testing, simulating real-world cyberattacks to identify vulnerabilities across your application and infrastructure that could pose risks to patient data or NHS systems. Our testing aligns with recognised industry standards such as OWASP and NCSC best practices.
Social Engineering
Social engineering remains one of the most effective tactics used by attackers to gain unauthorised access to sensitive systems, data, or even physical premises. Unlike traditional cyber threats, social engineering targets human behaviour, exploiting trust, curiosity or lack of awareness to bypass security controls.
Our Social Engineering Assessment is designed to evaluate your organisation’s susceptibility to these types of attacks. We simulate realistic scenarios such as phishing emails, phone-based deception (vishing), physical access attempts, and other manipulation techniques tailored to your working environment. These controlled tests help assess how staff respond to potential threats and where improvements can be made in policy, awareness, and response protocols.
Large Language Models (LLMs)
Large Language Models (LLMs), such as those powering AI chatbots and intelligent assistants, are rapidly being adopted across a wide range of industries. While they offer impressive capabilities, they also introduce new security and compliance risks – including data exposure, prompt injection attacks, identity spoofing, model manipulation, and other emerging threats.
Our LLM Security & Risk Assessment helps your organisation identify, assess, and mitigate risks associated with the development and deployment of LLM-powered applications. We follow the OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications, a trusted security framework that addresses the most critical vulnerabilities specific to language models. Our assessments include the review of prompt handling, data privacy, output validation, user access controls, model integrity, and compliance practices such as GDPR and ethical AI principles.
