Penetration Testing
Security testing and security reviews you can trust. Conducted by our experienced and ethical hackers.
Why consider Penetration Testing?
Keep your data safe, prevent regulatory fines and avert financial extortion.
Penetration testing (also called 'pen testing' or 'ethical hacking') is a method for testing the security of an IT system by attempting to breach it, using the same tools and techniques that a malicious hacker would use. Think of it as a financial audit, but for your IT system instead of your numbers.
Our 'Red Team' (ethical hackers) examines your IT systems for any weaknesses that may compromise your network's confidentiality, availability, integrity, and associated data.
