Offensive Security

Penetration Testing

Identify and validate exploitable vulnerabilities before an attacker does.

Many regulatory programmes require penetration testing as evidence of due diligence in hardening networks against attack and misuse. Nexagate combines technical depth with business sensitivity to deliver in-depth tests that evaluate the real-world security of your networks, applications and people, while protecting your data and avoiding disruption to normal operations.

Each engagement is performed by an experienced Nexagate consultant and scoped for your environment to ensure accuracy and safety. You receive a detailed report analysing how an intruder could gain access to internal systems under specific conditions, together with the prioritised steps needed to prevent such an intrusion. As a CREST-accredited provider, we can assess general network security preparedness as well as run regulation-specific tests aligned to standards such as ISO/IEC 27001:2022 and PCI DSS.

How we work

01
Scoping and rules of engagement
Agree targets, timing, depth and constraints so testing is accurate, authorised and safe for live operations.
02
Reconnaissance and discovery
Map the attack surface across networks, applications and, where in scope, physical and staff-facing entry points.
03
Exploitation and validation
Safely exploit confirmed weaknesses to demonstrate real impact and remove false positives.
04
Reporting and remediation guidance
Deliver a risk-rated report with clear reproduction steps and prioritised remediation advice.
05
Retesting
Verify that remediation has closed the findings and confirm the residual risk position.
