Penetration Testing & Vulnerability Assessment

خدمات اختبار الاختراق وتقييم الثغرات

The only way to know whether a defence holds is to attack it. We do that deliberately, within an agreed scope, and then verify that what we found has actually been fixed.

At a glance

  • Scope and rules of engagement fixed in writing
  • Run to avoid disrupting production
  • Deliverable: reproducible findings plus a retest

What this covers

A vulnerability scan produces a list. A penetration test produces a story: this door was open, it led to that server, and from there we could reach your customer data. The second is what changes budgets, because it removes the argument that a finding is theoretical.

We agree the scope and the rules of engagement in writing before anything starts, and we choose methods that do not take production down. Every finding comes with the steps to reproduce it, so your team can verify the fix rather than take our word for it — and we retest afterwards to confirm the gap is genuinely closed.

What you get

Web application testing

Authenticated and unauthenticated testing of your web applications.

Network penetration testing

External and internal network testing, including lateral movement.

API security testing

Authorisation, injection and business-logic flaws in your interfaces.

Mobile application testing

Client-side and backend testing for iOS and Android apps.

External attack-surface assessment

What an attacker can see and reach from the internet.

Remediation verification

A retest after your fixes, confirming the finding is actually closed.

How we run it

01

Scope and authorise

Targets, methods, timing and emergency contacts agreed and signed.

02

Reconnaissance

Mapping the attack surface as an outsider would see it.

03

Exploit and escalate

Controlled exploitation to establish real, not theoretical, impact.

04

Report and retest

Ranked findings with reproduction steps, then a verification round after remediation.

Common questions

Could the test break something?

The scope, the methods and the timing are agreed with you in advance, destructive techniques are excluded unless you explicitly authorise them, and we keep a live contact open throughout so testing can be stopped immediately.

How often should we test?

Annually as a baseline, and additionally after any significant change to an exposed system. Between tests, vulnerability scanning covers the routine.
