The volume and severity of cyberthreats have surged in recent times. Businesses of all sizes are vulnerable to cyberattacks, so it’s crucial to keep one step ahead in the world of cyber security. Penetration testing in the UK allows you to proactively safeguard your business against emerging threats by simulating real-world attacks against your networks.
Penetration testing has become a common and standard method of proving the security of business systems, as cyber threats continue to evolve. Most cyber security accreditations mandate that a penetration test must be conducted at least annually, and many providers of cyber insurance services have made routine testing of cyber security systems a standard requirement for their business policies.
An accredited penetration test is a great way of proving to yourself and your clients that your cyber security systems are effective, and that your business is serious about protecting the data it holds and processes.
Most importantly, it’s about recognising that the fight against cyber threats is constantly changing and evolving, and that assuming your existing security solutions are “good enough” can often be dangerous.
Conducts a simulated cyberattack to evaluate your security defences, reviewing existing security measures, and ensuring systems can resist cyber attacks.
Uncovers security weaknesses to highlight potential entry points, and ranks vulnerabilities based on their risk level, so you can tackle the critical ones first.
Provides mitigation guidance for detected weaknesses, helping you to respond quickly and decisively to prevent security compromises.
CREST-accredited reports serve as evidence of compliance with various regulatory standards. minimising the risk of legal and financial repercussions, while addressing security gaps that could lead to data theft, manipulation, or contamination.
All tests include a follow-up Remediation Report, helping to verify that mitigation steps have been effective, and serving as further evidence of your efforts to protect your customers' data.
The tools we use to conduct our tests are developed and backed by OSCP and OSCE certified consultants, and are fully compliant with PCI, HIPAA, SOC2, and more, satisfying the requirements of cyber insurance companies.
All Penetration Tests we conduct are through our partnership with Vonahi Security, allowing us to provide reports stamped with the CREST logo.
CREST is a globally recognised accreditation body for cyber security services, and this mark provides assurance that the tests we perform adhere to the highest standards of quality and security.
At Renaissance, as one of the trusted Penetration Testing Companies UK, we break down complex testing into simple, manageable steps.
Our Sales & Account Management team will discuss your test requirements and timescales with you, and request any further information we need about your IT environment, in order to be able to perform an effective and appropriately-scoped test.
Once we have a clear picture of what needs testing and how your test should be conducted, we'll calculate how long we expect the test to take, and then provide a clear and concise quotation for your approval.
We'll begin your test at the agreed date and time, checking for vulnerabilities and weaknesses which could be exploited or chained together to form an effective attack. Our findings are compiled into CREST-accredited and easy-to-read reports, with different versions available to suit various levels of technical understanding.
Once your reports have been compiled and handed over, our engineers are on-hand to assist with remediations, under the terms of your existing Support Agreement with us. Don't have a Support Agreement? No problem; you can use your own internal IT department, or a 3rd-party, or we can work with you on a Time & Parts basis. Alternatively, you might see the results of your Pen Test as a catalyst for signing-up to one of our Managed Service Plans!
Once all issues have been addressed, we'll conduct a second, Remediation test, to validate the effectiveness of the remediation work. One Remediation test is included in our standard Penetration Test package, so it's worth being confident that all issues have been resolved before asking us to complete this second test. Subsequent tests may incur additional charges.
Regular penetration testing is essential for UK SMBs across various sectors, including healthcare, financial services, legal firms, manufacturing, education, and non-profits.
Testing ensures compliance with regulations like GDPR, PCI-DSS, and the NHS DSP Toolkit, it protects sensitive data, and safeguards against cyber threats. By identifying vulnerabilities before they can be exploited, penetration testing helps businesses avoid costly breaches, build customer trust, and improve their overall security posture. Whether you’re a startup looking to attract investors or an established local business aiming to maintain customer trust, our penetration testing services in the UK provide the proactive defence you need to stay secure and compliant.
