Penetration Testing
Extensive CREST accredited Penetration Testing services designed to expose vulnerabilities within IT systems and mitigate criminal exploitation.
Cyber-attacks and breaches cause organisations to lose vast sums of money, loss of valuable data and in many cases cause irreparable damage. Penetration testing is a viable method to help combat malicious activities. CYFOR provides a range of CREST accredited penetration testing services that include rigorous assessments of your organisation’s network. This is with the aim of exposing vulnerabilities and weaknesses within your systems and their potential exploitation. The comprehensive reporting provided by our cyber security experts includes executive summaries and detailed technical recommendations to enhance the current level of IT security within the systems networks of your organisation.
A Penetration Test (also referred to as a ‘Pen Test’) is an assault on your organisations network with the aim of testing the ability of your systems to withstand a cyber-attack. The test is executed in an ethical manner so as not to disrupt your actual business operations, while actively identifying exploitable system weaknesses. Once identified, remediation techniques can be applied to address these vulnerabilities and secure your IT infrastructure.
Penetration tests are a key security assessment to many organisations, undertaken at routine intervals and identifying exploitable vulnerabilities in complex networks and computer systems. The information generated from such tests can provide valuable information about the security status of a business and act as a commercial ‘enabler’, with a clean bill of health ensuring that new commercial agreements can be signed, and new ventures can be pursued with a high level of confidence. You will be safe in the knowledge that your organisations systems have been rigorously tested and that the highest level of security is in place to fend off cyber-attacks, with CYFOR also extremely well-placed to conduct any remediation work required to ensure your systems are as secure as possible.

“CYFOR provided us with a comprehensive Pen Test for our Sales Geek Hub. The experience of working with CYFOR was extremely positive, they quickly grasped a scale of the project and were quick to book us in, which helped massively as we were working to a deadline. The professionalism of the service provided was brilliant. They took the time to run through the Pen Test with us, in a language we could understand, which allowed us to deliver the required report to our client. I would not hesitate to recommend CYFOR in the future.”
