Penetration testing & Red Team

Find the weaknesses before someone else does.

Scenarios are designed to highlight business impact: unauthorized access, sensitive data exposure, lateral movement, privilege escalation. The expected outcome: a report your IT team can act on and your leadership can understand.

Why it matters now

Environments change faster than security controls.

New features, SaaS integrations, test environments reused in production, secrets left in repositories, poorly protected technical accounts – all of this reshapes your attack surface. Penetration testing gives you a current picture, highlights business impact and helps you plan remediation work.

Follow-up

1. Web applications & APIs

Targeted analysis of exposed applications: authentication, authorization, session handling, file upload, API endpoints. The goal is to demonstrate what could lead to data leakage, impersonation or service disruption.

  • Testing on critical user journeys (checkout, account, client file)
  • Logical escalation beyond basic OWASP checks
  • Reporting tailored to development teams
Web & API penetration testing

2. Internal, network and lateral movement

Assessment of the likely progression from an internal foothold or compromised workstation to key systems: file shares, servers, domain controllers, privileged accounts.

  • Identification of attack paths
  • Analysis of accessible shares and systems
  • Practical recommendations (segmentation, admin MFA, hygiene)
Internal & network penetration testing

3. Controlled social engineering

Controlled simulations to measure human risk without blaming users. Results are aggregated and presented as indicators that security and HR can act on.

  • Plain, realistic scenarios tailored to your sector
  • No individual naming or shaming
  • Awareness materials provided
Social engineering campaigns

4. Debrief & validation

Delivery of a structured report: executive summary for leadership, technical details for the team, and an action plan ranked by impact and effort. A short re-test can be run after remediation.

  • Two-page executive overview
  • Full technical findings list
  • Optional verification after fixes
Reporting and follow-up

What you always get from an engagement

Designed for lean teams, service providers, subsidiaries or shared environments.

Realistic scenarios

Tests built to demonstrate concrete impact, not just tick a checklist.

Actionable remediation plan

Every vulnerability is mapped to a clear, concrete remediation measure.

Controlled engagements

Defined time windows, pre-approved scope and guardrails.

Clear reporting

Executive summary for leadership plus technical annexes for the team.

Coverage that fits

Web & API, internal/network, cloud and limited social engineering.

Follow-up included

Optional verification after fixes to close out critical risks.

Move from assumed risk to demonstrated risk.

A single well-run test campaign is often enough to kick-start the most important fixes.

Testing performed in a controlled environment

Defined scope, agreed testing windows, pre-approved scenarios — no intrusive actions without explicit consent.
