Our Services

Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability are considered the pillars of Information Security and provide a well-known framework to assess vulnerabilities, understand attacks and produce effective remediations.¹

The goal of a penetration test is to find and demonstrate vulnerabilities in software, systems (such as computer networks) and hardware that would give an attacker:

• Access to confidential data: for example, Personally Identifiable Information (PII), intellectual property, and financial records.
• The ability to undermine data integrity, such as altering payment information, elevate privileges within an application, corrupt data, etc.
• Control over data availability, for example by triggering Denial-of-Service conditions that could undermine services and cause financial or reputational damage.

Tailored Security Research engagements focus on a client's proprietary technology — from bespoke business applications to embedded hardware. Rather than applying a standard methodology, we design the scope and approach around the specific product, its threat model, and the objectives of the engagement.

Common drivers include pre-acquisition technical due diligence, regulatory compliance requirements, and demonstrating security maturity to partners or investors. Findings are delivered with the depth expected by engineering leadership and the clarity required by executive stakeholders.

Unlike penetration testing, which aims at finding all vulnerabilities and evaluate their impact, Red Team engagements are objective-driven and aim at reaching a specific target - for example, financial information, personal data of a number of customers, access to critical systems, etc.

The ultimate purpose of a red team exercise is to test an organisation security maturity, detection and defence capabilities through emulation of known threat actors or simulation of specific threat scenarios.

Security Tooling development consists in creating software solutions to automate our Client's security posture hardening.

Examples include:

• Development of unit or integration tests to integrate in our Client's CI/CD pipeline.
• Automating network hardening tasks such as automated password cracking, security scans, vulnerability assessments.
• Customising large-scale asset management solutions with ad-hoc scripts to integrate the output of vulnerability scans and ITIL platforms.

We draw on our experience as software developers to deliver the solution our Clients need, including source code, documentation, and modularity for future development.

Large Language Models (LLM) and AI has become a powerful tool and force multiplier for any organisation that needs to maintain an edge in today's fast-paced market.

As any novel technology, AI attacks are evolving rapidly, often leaving companies unaware of the security issues as they abstract the technical details away from normal usage. Attacks such as prompt injection, data or model poisoning, leakage of sensitive data, cross-prompt attacks and misinformation elevate the risk in an opaque manner.

Through AI security testing, our Clients are given an understanding of the risks they are exposed to and are able to take commensurate actions to mitigate or remove them.

Physical Security testing consists in finding and exploiting weaknesses in a company physical assets, such as offices, building, and warehouses. Its objective is to identify weak spots, both in training/employee awareness and physical security mechanisms.

Exploiting physical security targets the following:

• People - while it is human nature to be helpful, this can often backfire and compromise the security of an entire installation. Examples include tailgating, social engineering, bypassing security guards, etc.
• Physical assets - cameras are ubiquitous, but are they surveilled in real time or are they used only after a breach has taken place? Attacks such as badge cloning, lock manipulation and bypassing of security barriers can leave an organisation vulnerable to theft or cyber attacks perpetrated from within the corporate network.
