Security Testing That Closes Gaps Before Attackers Find Them

Vulnerability scanning is automated—it checks your application against databases of known vulnerabilities and produces a list of findings. Penetration testing is manual and intelligence-led: a certified engineer attempts to breach your application using the techniques a real attacker would use, chaining vulnerabilities and exploiting business logic in ways no automated tool can replicate. For organisations handling sensitive data or seeking compliance evidence, penetration testing is necessary; vulnerability scanning alone is insufficient.

A focused web application penetration test typically takes 3–5 days of testing, with a further 2–3 days for report writing and review. More complex assessments covering APIs, mobile applications, and infrastructure take longer. We scope each engagement based on the application's attack surface and your specific objectives.

Yes. Our penetration testing reports include detailed remediation guidance for each finding, prioritised by severity (Critical, High, Medium, Low, Informational). We also offer a free retest of critical and high findings following remediation to confirm resolution—something many security firms charge separately for.
