What the test does
It works through your network the way an attacker would, and writes down what it finds.
Finds what is in scope on your network
Internet-facing systems like your firewall and remote access, plus the computers, servers, printers and other devices inside the office.
Looks for weaknesses
Missing updates, weak or reused passwords, and settings left at the factory default.
Safely tries them
It tries those weaknesses within the approved scope, to see what someone could reach.
Shows the attack path
How one small problem leads to another, for example a weak password that leads to an admin account.
Writes it up
What it proved, with evidence, and the steps to fix it.
External and internal penetration tests
Two views of the same network.
External penetration test
Tests your network from the internet side, the way someone outside your building would see it.
Internal penetration test
Tests from inside the office network, to show what could happen if one computer or account were taken over.

When cyber insurance, a client or a compliance rule asks for a pen test
Usually because someone asked for one.
Your cyber insurance application asks whether you have had a penetration test. A client contract says you need one every year. Or the compliance rules for your industry call for one. Our automated test and plain-English report give you documentation you can share with them.
Send us the exact wording you were given, and we will tell you honestly whether our test fits it.

Penetration testing questions
Is it safe to run on our network?
It is designed to run within an approved scope. Nothing runs until you sign a written authorization that lists what gets tested and when. Careful testing can occasionally slow a system down, so we make sure your backups are good first and keep an emergency contact reachable during the test.
Our insurer or a client asked for a penetration test. Will this work?
Send us the exact wording from your insurer, client contract or compliance rules, and we will tell you honestly whether our automated test and report fit it.
Do small businesses need a penetration test?
If you hold client data, take payments or depend on your network to work, it is worth knowing what an attacker could do. The report helps you decide what to fix first.
How often should we test?
A sensible starting point is once a year, plus after big changes like a new firewall, a new server or an office move.
What does it cost?
It is quoted after a short call, based on the size of your network and what you want tested.
Do you also do manual testing?
