Internal & External Testing
A comprehensive evaluation of your organization’s security, testing both internal systems and external-facing assets to identify vulnerabilities and strengthen defences.

What is Internal & External Testing?
Internal & External Testing is a comprehensive security approach that evaluates both your organization’s internal systems and external-facing assets. Unlike traditional vulnerability scans, which focus on identifying known issues, this testing simulates real-world cyberattacks to identify weaknesses across all entry points — both within the organisation and from the outside.
Our experts use industry-standard tools and methods to assess your organization’s security from every angle, ensuring you are well-equipped to defend against potential threats and strengthen your defences.
