What We Do.
Four core services focused on finding weaknesses, reducing risk and giving your team something useful to act on.
Penetration Testing
Web applications, internal and external infrastructure, and wireless networks tested from an attacker's point of view. We combine manual testing with the right tools to find weaknesses automated scanners often miss.
Phishing Simulations
Find out how your team responds to phishing before a real attacker gets the chance. We run realistic campaigns and measure clicks, credential submissions and reporting behaviour.
Security Awareness Training
Practical training focused on the attacks your staff are actually likely to face, tailored to your organisation and its risks.
Essential Eight Auditing
Independent assessment against the Australian Signals Directorate's Essential Eight maturity model. We identify where you sit, where the gaps are and what needs to change to reach your target maturity level.
Penetration Testing
Wi-Fi Penetration Testing
Wireless networks can provide an attack path that never touches your internet-facing perimeter.
We assess wireless configurations, authentication controls, client behaviour and exposure to attacks involving rogue access points and nearby attackers.
Testing can cover WPA2 and WPA3 personal and enterprise environments.
Internal Penetration Testing
Internal testing starts from the assumption that an attacker already has a foothold inside your environment.
That could mean a compromised workstation, stolen VPN credentials or a malicious insider.
We assess what an attacker could reach from there, including privilege escalation, credential exposure, lateral movement and potential domain compromise.
External Penetration Testing
External testing looks at the systems you expose to the internet.
This can include VPNs, web servers, firewalls, email infrastructure and other publicly accessible services.
We approach the environment without internal access, much like an external attacker would.
Web Application Penetration Testing
We manually test web applications for vulnerabilities including SQL injection, cross-site scripting, authentication weaknesses, access control issues, insecure APIs and business logic flaws.
Automated tools are useful, but they cannot understand an application the way a person can. Manual testing helps uncover issues that scanners often miss.
We simulate real attacks against your systems to identify weaknesses before someone else finds them.
Our testing combines manual techniques with specialist tooling. The goal is not to produce a long list of scanner results. It is to understand what can actually be exploited, how far an attacker could get and what you should fix first.
What You Receive
A typical penetration testing engagement includes:
Executive summary
Risk-ranked technical findings
Evidence showing what was identified
Reproduction steps where appropriate
Practical remediation guidance
One remediation retest of the agreed findings
The report is written to be useful to both the people fixing the issue and the people responsible for the risk.
No scanner dump with a logo pasted on the front.
Phishing Simulations
We run realistic phishing campaigns to see how staff respond when an email looks convincing enough to be real.
Campaigns are designed around your organisation and the types of attacks your staff are likely to encounter, rather than relying on the same generic templates for every client.
Depending on the campaign, we measure link clicks, credential submissions, reporting rates and behaviour over repeated campaigns.
The results show where the risk is and help shape future security awareness training.
Security Awareness Training
Security awareness training should help people make better decisions, not just get through an annual compliance exercise.
Our training focuses on practical situations staff are likely to encounter, including phishing and suspicious emails, social engineering, password and account security, multi-factor authentication, handling sensitive information and reporting suspicious activity.
Training can be tailored to your organisation, industry and current risk profile.
Essential Eight Assessments
The Essential Eight is a set of mitigation strategies recommended by the Australian Signals Directorate to help organisations make it harder for attackers to compromise their systems.
We assess your current implementation against the Essential Eight maturity model and identify the gaps between your current position and your target maturity level.
Why Conduct an Essential Eight Assessment?
Stronger Defences:
Confirm that security controls are actually implemented and operating effectively, rather than simply appearing in a policy document.Government and Supply Chains:
Essential Eight maturity may be required under government policies, regulatory requirements or contractual arrangements. An assessment can help you understand where you stand before those requirements become a problem.Clear Evidence:
Understand which controls are working, which are not, and what evidence supports the assessed maturity level.Better Visibility:
Give management, clients and other stakeholders a clearer view of the organisation's cybersecurity posture.
Maturity Levels 1 to 3:
Maturity Level 1: Maturity Level One is intended to address adversaries using common tradecraft and widely available techniques. The focus is on establishing a consistent baseline across all eight mitigation strategies.
Maturity Level 2: Maturity Level Two is intended to address adversaries that invest more effort in targeting an organisation and use more effective techniques to bypass weaker controls. Requirements become stricter and need to be applied more consistently across the environment.
Maturity Level 3: Maturity Level Three is intended for environments facing adversaries with more sophisticated tradecraft and a greater ability to target and adapt to an organisation's defences. Controls are stricter again, with greater emphasis on reducing opportunities for attackers to bypass or disable security measures.
We assess your environment against the requirements for your target maturity level, document where requirements are met or not met, and provide a prioritised roadmap for closing the gaps.
We describe results in terms of maturity levels and assessment findings rather than treating the Essential Eight as a certification.
