We find the problems before the wrong people do
Penetration testing for applications, networks and cloud, with reports for both your developers and your board.
In-depth Reconnaissance
Before testing, we map domains, subdomains, exposed services and the technologies in use, the way a real attacker would.
Logic flaws
Beyond known vulnerabilities, we look for flaws in your application's logic that automated scanners don't find.
Technical Reporting
We don't just identify vulnerabilities; we provide prioritized remediation roadmaps, quantified risk metrics, and executive-ready presentations for the board.
Multi-Infrastructure
We test your entire technological ecosystem: web and mobile applications, internal networks, AWS/Azure/GCP cloud, IoT systems, critical infrastructure, and hybrid environments.
Operational Security Protocols
We follow strict protocols and agreed rules of engagement, so testing never puts your operations at risk.
Social Engineering
Technology is only as secure as the people who use it. We test your team with realistic phishing campaigns.
Penetration Testing
What is a penetration test, and why does your business need one?
A penetration test — commonly called a pentest — is a controlled, authorised simulation of a cyberattack on your systems, applications, or infrastructure. Conducted by security specialists, it goes far beyond automated vulnerability scanning: it mimics the tools, tactics, and thought processes of a real attacker to find exploitable weaknesses before someone malicious does. It is not a one-time checkbox exercise — it is ongoing evidence that your defences hold up against current threat actors.

Why you need it
You hold your clients' data
If you build software, run infrastructure, or store data for others, a breach doesn't just affect you — it affects every client on your platform. Regular pentesting is your proof of due diligence and your first line of legal and contractual protection.
Regulations require demonstrable testing
GDPR Article 32, NIS2, ISO 27001, and PCI-DSS all explicitly require organisations to test the effectiveness of their security controls. A pentest report dated within 12 months is the standard evidence auditors and regulators ask for.
Enterprise buyers ask for it
Vendor security assessments in enterprise procurement routinely request penetration test reports. Without one dated within the last year, deals stall — regardless of how good your product is. It is now a standard sales requirement, not a nice-to-have.
Cyber insurers require it
Insurers are tightening underwriting criteria. Annual penetration testing is increasingly a baseline requirement for cyber liability coverage. Absence of test evidence directly affects eligibility and premium pricing.
Types of penetration test
- Web Application
- Full assessment against OWASP Top 10, business logic vulnerabilities, authentication and session flaws, API security, and injection attacks. Covers authenticated and unauthenticated attack surfaces.
- Network & Infrastructure
- External and internal network testing: firewall and segmentation rules, exposed services, lateral movement paths from inside the perimeter, and privilege escalation vectors.
- Mobile Application
- iOS and Android security review: reverse engineering, insecure data storage, traffic interception, certificate pinning bypass, and backend API security from the mobile client perspective.
- Cloud & Configuration
- AWS, GCP, and Azure environment review: IAM misconfiguration, overprivileged roles, exposed storage buckets, network security group rules, and cloud-specific attack paths.
- Social Engineering
- Human-layer testing: targeted phishing campaigns, pretexting scenarios, and physical access tests. Identifies whether technical controls can be bypassed through the people who use them.
What you receive
Executive Summary
Board-ready overview: overall risk posture, critical findings, and business impact written in non-technical language. Designed to be shared with leadership and clients.
Technical Report
Developer-ready findings with full reproduction steps, CVSS 3.1 severity scores, affected components, and annotated evidence screenshots. Everything your team needs to remediate.
Remediation Roadmap
Prioritised fix list ordered by exploitability and business impact — not just severity score. Tells your team what to fix first, and why the order matters.
Free Retest
Once you've applied fixes, we retest the affected vulnerabilities and confirm resolution. The retest finding is included in the final report at no additional cost.

Industrial companies and NIS2
If your company falls under the NIS2 directive, you must regularly assess how effective your security measures are. With the Tailor Made package we map every finding to NIS2 requirements, including IoT devices and hardware components.
We go beneath the surface
We simulate real attack scenarios, combining professional tooling with human intuition to discover vulnerabilities others miss.
