Black box
We attack with no inside information, exactly like an external attacker would.
- Simulates a real outsider attack
- Tests your perimeter and detection
- Best for public-facing systems
We simulate real-world attacks across your applications, networks, cloud and Active Directory to reveal business-critical risk, then hand your team a report they can act on the same week.
Penetration testing is a controlled, authorised attack on your own systems. Our ethical hackers use the same techniques as real attackers to find weaknesses, prove what could actually be exploited, and show the business impact before a criminal finds the same path.
Scanners only report what they recognise. A tester chains small issues together, abuses business logic and reaches the data that matters. That difference is why a clean scan and a clean pentest are not the same thing.
Each approach answers a different question. We help you pick the one that fits your risk and budget.
We attack with no inside information, exactly like an external attacker would.
We start with limited access, such as a normal user account or basic architecture details.
We work with full access to architecture, credentials and sometimes source code.
We map your attack surface using public and technical sources, without touching or exploiting anything yet.
We analyse systems, applications and network components to identify weaknesses that could be exploited.
We safely exploit confirmed issues to prove real impact, always within the agreed rules of engagement.
You receive an executive summary and a technical report your developers can work straight from.
After you patch, we re-test every finding and issue a clean closure summary you can share with clients or auditors.
Reports your board and your engineers can both use. No 400-page scanner dump.
Tell us about your systems and we will recommend the right assessment, with a clear scope and a fixed price.
Most web or mobile application tests run one to two weeks, depending on size and number of user roles. We confirm the exact timeline during scoping, before you commit.
No. We agree rules of engagement first, avoid destructive techniques, and can test in staging or during off-peak hours. You have a direct line to the lead tester throughout.
At least once a year, and again after any major release or infrastructure change. Many compliance frameworks, including PCI DSS, expect annual testing as a minimum.
Yes. After the retest confirms your fixes, we issue a closure summary you can share with customers, partners or auditors.
