Network Security Testing
Vulnerability Assessment & Penetration Testing (VAPT)
We help organisations proactively defend against cyber threats by simulating real-world attacks across on-prem, cloud, and hybrid infrastructure.
Our network security testing offerings
Modern enterprise networks are complex, interconnected, and constantly evolving. Our VAPT services find and address weaknesses before exploitation.
Network Vulnerability Assessment (VA)
Systematic DiscoverySystematic identification of known security weaknesses across network devices, servers, and services — with the noise filtered out.
- Discovery of exposed services and systems
- Identification of known CVEs and misconfigurations
- Risk-based classification of findings
- Manual validation to eliminate false positives
- Actionable, prioritised remediation guidance
External Network Penetration Testing
Perimeter SecurityWe simulate real-world attacks from outside your organisation to evaluate how exposed your internet-facing infrastructure really is.
- Public IP and perimeter asset testing
- Firewall and perimeter defence evaluation
- Remote service exploitation attempts
- Attack surface and exposure analysis
- Validation of real-world attack paths
Cloud & Hybrid Infrastructure Testing
AWS · Azure · GCPModern networks extend into the cloud. We assess cloud and hybrid environments where misconfiguration is the leading cause of breaches.
- VPC, security group, and network ACL review
- Exposed storage, services, and management interfaces
- IAM and network trust-boundary analysis
- Hybrid connectivity and VPN/peering review
- CIS Benchmark-aligned configuration checks
Network & Firewall Configuration Review
Configuration AuditFirewalls and network devices are the backbone of enterprise security. We verify these controls follow security best practice.
- Firewall rule base and policy review
- Network segmentation and access-control validation
- Secure configuration of routers, switches, and gateways
- Identification of overly permissive rules
- Alignment with security and compliance requirements
Our testing process
A proven, methodical approach to ensure comprehensive coverage and reliable results.
Define Scope
We define the engagement scope with your stakeholders — network components, environments, boundaries, and critical systems.
Information Gathering
We collect detail on architecture, technologies, and exposed interfaces to understand context and attack vectors.
Enumeration
We map endpoints, services, and network devices to chart the attack surface and uncover exploitable areas.
Exploitation
We simulate real-world attacks with manual techniques and tooling to validate impact and exploitability.
Reporting
You receive a detailed report with descriptions, risk ratings, proof of concept, business impact, and remediation.
Remediation Testing
After fixes are applied, we re-test to confirm vulnerabilities are resolved and nothing new was introduced.
Key benefits
Vulnerability testing delivers critical insight that helps you build a strong, compliant security foundation.
Proactive Risk Identification
Find security flaws before attackers do, so your team can remediate early and reduce breach risk.
Certified & Standards-Compliant
ISO 27001 certified company; team holds ISO 27001 LA, OSCP, CEH, and CCISA — globally recognised practices.
Enhanced Data Protection
Closing network weaknesses safeguards customer data, intellectual property, and critical business assets.
Cost-Effective Security
Fixing issues early prevents costly incidents, downtime, and emergency remediation later.
Improved Resilience
Consistent testing hardens network and application layers, reducing the likelihood of successful intrusions.
Confidence in Your Posture
Clear visibility into risks builds confidence across technical teams and leadership over time.
Types of penetration testing
Multiple methodologies to suit different organisational needs.
Black Box
Zero Knowledge
Simulates an external attacker with no prior knowledge of the network, testing resilience to unknown threats.
White Box
Full Knowledge
With full access to documentation and configs, we deep-dive into hidden vulnerabilities and design weaknesses.
Gray Box
Some Knowledge
A balanced approach replicating a partially informed attacker for practical, efficient coverage.
