  • Defined scope and testing windows
  • External network penetration testing
  • Internal network testing where approved
  • Web application testing where approved
  • Manual validation of selected findings

Deliverables

  • Penetration test report

Fit and process

How this service helps

Penetration testing is for organizations that need controlled validation of security exposure beyond automated scanning. It is appropriate when a client, insurer, internal risk program, or leadership team needs evidence of how vulnerabilities could be used within an approved scope.

Engagement process

  1. 1Define written authorization, rules of engagement, approved targets, testing windows, and emergency contacts.
  2. 2Perform controlled testing against the agreed scope using manual validation where appropriate.
  3. 3Document findings with evidence, risk context, and business impact.
  4. 4Review results and support remediation planning or retesting if included.

Expected outcomes

  • Better understanding of exploitable risk within the approved scope.
  • Evidence-backed findings that support remediation decisions.
  • A more credible security testing record for leadership, clients, or insurers.
