In today’s digital landscape, where cyber threats are growing in both volume and sophistication, businesses face increasing challenges to protect their systems and sensitive data. Cyberattacks are no longer a question of if but when, making proactive measures a necessity.
One such vital measure is penetration testing, commonly known as “pen testing.” This method simulates real-world cyberattacks on your systems to uncover vulnerabilities that could be exploited. By identifying weaknesses before they become entry points for attackers, penetration testing is crucial for fortifying your defences.

CREST CERTIFIED
INTERNAL NETWORK
PENTEST
Using a device connected to your internal environment, our consultants will discover security vulnerabilities present within the internal network environment. These activities simulate that of a malicious attacker.
CREST CERTIFIED
EXTERNAL NETWORK
PENTEST
Assuming the role of a malicious attacker from the public Internet, our consultants will identify security flaws within your external network environment. These flaws can include patching, configuration, and authentication issues.
SOCIAL
ENGINEERING
PENTEST
Security orchestration and proactive anti-phishing training help identify and block phishing threats, whilst security awareness training and simulations drive awareness and behaviour change, fostering a stronger security culture.
Our Automated Penetration Test Methodology
vPenTest combines multiple methodologies that were once manually conducted into an automated fashion to consistently provide maximum value to organisations – We offer two different automated penetration testing services to guide your organisation to a better security posture and program.
VALIDATED
BY EXPERTS
Combining the knowledge, skills, logic, and toolsets of numerous consultants into one, vPenTest is the perfect solution to consistently satisfy your organisation’s needs for quality results.
REALTIME
ACTIVITY TRACKING
An important step to assessing your organisation’s risk is the ability to detect and respond to malicious activities occurring within your environment. vPenTest creates a separate log file for every single activity that is performed so you can correlate our activities with your monitoring and logging solutions.
MEET COMPLIANCE,
MEET BEST PRACTICES
Combining the knowledge, skills, logic, and toolsets of numerous consultants into one, vPenTest is the perfect solution to consistently satisfy your organization’s needs for quality results.
EGRESS FILTERING
TESTING
Automatically perform egress filtering to ensure that your organisation is effectively restricting unnecessary outbound traffic. Unrestricted outbound access can allow a malicious actor to exfiltrate data from your organization’s environment using traditional methods and unmonitored ports.
AUTHENTICATION
ATTACKS
Upon the discovery of user account credentials, vPenTest will automatically attempt to validate those credentials and determine where they are most useful. This is a common process executed by both malicious attackers and penetration testers and is performed during privilege escalation.
PRIVILEGE ESCALATION &
LATERAL MOVEMENT
Using a valid set of credentials, vPenTest will attempt to identify valuable areas within your organization. This is conducted through a variety of methods, including the use of Vonahi’s Leprechaun tool which assists in identifying where sensitive targets are.
DATA
EXFILTRATION
Critical data leaving your organization is an extremely serious concern. If access to confidential and/or sensitive data can be attained, vPenTest will simulate and log this activity to help your organisation tighten areas that should restrict data exfiltration.
SIMULATED
MALWARE
With elevated access, vPenTest will attempt to upload malicious code onto remote systems in an attempt to test the organisation’s end-point anti-malware controls.
TIMELY
REPORTING
vPenTest generates an executive summary, technical and vulnerability report within 48 hours after the penetration test is complete. Our detailed deliverables will allow your network staff to cross reference our activities with monitoring and alerting controls.
