Services

Everything you need to find and fix weaknesses

Offensive testing to uncover flaws, defensive coverage to keep them out — delivered by one team across three countries.

Penetration testing

Ethical-hacking engagements against your networks and applications, using the techniques real attackers use.

Vulnerability assessment

See how damaging each flaw would be in a real attack, prioritised by business impact rather than scanner noise.

Get a quote →

Data theft prevention

Controls and detection that stop confidential information leaving your systems before privacy is compromised.

Get a quote →

Malware protection

Global threat intelligence, sandboxing and real-time blocking to defeat advanced and evasive payloads.

Get a quote →

Network security

Network penetration testing that identifies exploitable weaknesses across systems, hosts and devices.

Get a quote →

Cloud security

Protect data stored across cloud platforms from theft, leakage and deletion with hardened configurations.

Reporting

Reports your engineers can act on

No 200-page dump of scanner output. Every finding comes with the exact request that triggered it, the impact in plain language, and a fix your team can ship the same week.

  • Reproducible proof of concept for every issue, safely captured.
  • CVSS scoring and business impact so you know what to fix first.
  • Free retest once your team has shipped the patches.
Methodology

How we actually test

Our engagements follow the Penetration Testing Execution Standard (PTES) and the OWASP Testing Guide, with findings scored using CVSS v3.1 and mapped to MITRE ATT&CK techniques.

01

Reconnaissance

Passive and active discovery of your attack surface: DNS and subdomain enumeration, OSINT, certificate transparency logs, exposed services and shadow IT you may not know exists.

02

Enumeration & mapping

Port and service fingerprinting, technology stack identification, endpoint and parameter mapping, authentication flow analysis and privilege boundary documentation.

03

Exploitation

Manual exploitation of identified weaknesses — injection, broken access control, authentication bypass, insecure deserialisation — with proof captured and no data exfiltrated.

04

Post-exploitation

Lateral movement, privilege escalation and persistence testing to establish the true blast radius of a compromise, strictly within the agreed rules of engagement.

05

Reporting & retest

Prioritised findings with reproduction steps, CVSS scoring, business impact and remediation guidance — followed by a free retest once patches ship.

Already hacked? · 24/7 emergency line

Website hacked, data leaked or systems locked? We take over immediately.

Ransomware, defaced pages, crypto-mining scripts, spam sent from your domain, customer data dumped online, or admin access you have lost — tell us what happened and our response team moves at once. We contain the attacker, close the entry point, remove the malicious code and restore your services within hours, then tell you exactly how they got in.

Containment within the first hour Malware & backdoor removal Root cause & entry point report Hardening so it cannot happen twice

Ransomware recovery

Files encrypted? Don't pay anything before you speak to us.

Ransomware crews rely on panic. Before any payment is even discussed, there are things worth checking — a free public decryptor may already exist for the strain that hit you, and usable backups or shadow copies are often still intact. We work through it with you, fast.

1

Contain

Isolate infected hosts and cut the attacker's access before encryption spreads further across your network.

2

Identify

Determine the ransomware strain and check whether a free decryptor already exists for it.

3

Recover

Restore from backups, snapshots or shadow copies wherever they survived the attack.

4

Close the door

Find the entry point, remove persistence and backdoors, and harden so it cannot happen again.

What we handle for you

  • Forensic timeline — how they got in, how long they were inside, and what was taken before encryption.
  • Data exfiltration check — many crews steal data before locking it and threaten to publish. You need to know either way.
  • Regulatory reporting — support with GDPR's 72-hour notification window and your other obligations.
  • Law enforcement liaison — guidance on reporting the incident in your jurisdiction.
While you wait for us
  • Disconnect affected machines from the network — but do not power them off, memory evidence is lost on shutdown.
  • Do not delete the ransom note or the encrypted files; both help identify the strain.
  • Check whether backups are offline and unaffected before restoring anything.
  • Avoid contacting the attackers until you have advice.
Process

How an engagement works, step by step

A clear path from first conversation to a verified fix.

1

Scope

Tell us your targets and goals. We agree the rules of engagement together.

2

Test

Our testers probe your systems using real adversary techniques.

3

Report

You receive prioritised findings with proof of concept and clear fixes.

4

Verify

We retest every patch to confirm the gap is closed and reissue the report.

FAQ

Common questions

The things clients ask us most before an engagement begins.

What is the difference between a vulnerability assessment and a penetration test?
A vulnerability assessment identifies and catalogues weaknesses across your systems, usually with heavy use of automated tooling. A penetration test goes further: our testers actively exploit those weaknesses by hand to prove what an attacker could really achieve. Most clients start with an assessment for breadth, then a penetration test for depth on critical systems.
How long does a typical engagement take?
Scoping takes one to two days. A focused external network or web application test usually runs three to five working days, with the report delivered within a week of testing finishing. Larger environments take longer — we give you a firm timeline before any work begins.
Will testing disrupt our live systems?
We agree rules of engagement with you before starting, including testing windows, out-of-scope systems and escalation contacts. Destructive techniques are never used without explicit written approval, and we can test against staging environments where production risk is a concern.
What do we actually receive at the end?
A prioritised findings report: every issue with a reproducible proof of concept, a CVSS score, the business impact in plain language, and a specific remediation step. You also get an executive summary suitable for your board or clients.
Is the retest really free?
Yes. Once your team has shipped the patches, we retest the original findings at no extra cost and issue an updated report confirming what has been closed. This is included in every engagement.
