Ongoing Security

Security doesn't hold still for twelve months.

A penetration test tells you where you stood on the day it finished. Then you ship code, add a plugin, onboard a supplier and someone reuses a password. These engagements cover the ground in between.

What these are, and what they are not

We are careful about the difference between testing and monitoring, because plenty of firms are not. A penetration test is a deep, manual, time-boxed engagement in which an operator tries to break in. The work on this page is not that. It is the lighter, recurring layer underneath it — the checking, tracking and rehearsing that keeps the gap between tests from widening.

These engagements also do not make us your security operations centre. We are not monitoring your network at three in the morning, and we will not pretend otherwise. If you need round-the-clock detection and response, you need a provider built for it, and we will happily say so.

Each is a fixed monthly or quarterly scope, agreed in writing, with a named operator who knows your environment rather than a ticket queue that does not.

Not sure which layer you need?

Most teams need one of these, not all of them. Tell us what you already have in place and we'll tell you honestly where the real gap is — including when the answer is that you don't need us yet.
