Testing follows agreed scope, authorised methods and safe handling of sensitive findings.
Illustrative delivery model. Activities are tailored to the engagement scope, environment and risk profile.
WHO THIS IS FOR / BUSINESS CONTEXT
When organisations call us.
Who this is for
Application owners, development teams, security leads and programmes seeking risk-based assessment before release or major change.
Common triggers for an engagement include:
- A web application or API needs assurance before go-live
- A regulator or customer has asked for independent testing
- A major platform, identity or integration change has altered attack paths
ENGAGEMENT SCOPE
What we examine and design.
Work is proportionate to the system, its operating context and the decisions you need to make.
Web application, API and cloud penetration testing
Mobile application security review and secure code analysis
Threat modelling and OWASP ASVS-oriented testing
DevSecOps security controls and SDLC guidance
Authorised identity and access path testing
AI-enabled application security test planning
Retesting and evidence of remediation
OUR APPROACH
How we deliver.
Written authorisation, rules of engagement, safety constraints and clear escalation procedures come before any testing.
Standards and platforms
OWASP Top 10 · OWASP ASVS · OWASP API Security · MITRE ATT&CK
Where we draw the line.
Only explicitly authorised systems and time windows are tested. Production OT testing is excluded unless separately scoped and safety approved.
See our working methodPRACTICAL ANSWERS
Questions worth asking.
Answers are scoped to the service described here, not guarantees for an individual environment.
What is needed to start a penetration test?
An authorised scope, objectives, rules of engagement, named emergency contacts and test access where appropriate.
Will findings be retested?
Retesting and closure evidence can be included in the agreed scope so implementation teams can demonstrate remediation.
