Our Approach to Compliance Penetration Testing
We go through a rigorous process to ensure you get the best possible results from your penetration testing. Below we outline the key stages of our approach:
1. Scoping
Our scoping process is designed to fully understand your compliance needs, clarifying what standard, framework, or obligation applies.
2. Testing
Testing is manually performed against the agreed scope, using recognised methodologies & without disrupting your business operations.
3. Reporting
Our reporting is designed to provide clear, easy to understand, easy to action recommendations. As well as satisfy compliance requirements.
4. Post-test support
Our job doesn’t finish on delivery of a report. Our consultants will be made available to support your remediation efforts and any compliance queries.
