Physical Penetration Testing
The primary benefit of a physical penetration test is to expose weaknesses and vulnerabilities in physical controls (locks, barriers, cameras, or sensors) so that flaws can be quickly addressed. In addition, physical penetration tests mimic real-world scenarios to demonstrate what impact a malicious actor can have on your infrastructure.
Physical penetration testing will strengthen your security defences and allow you to focus on the digital side of your security. It makes no sense to throw millions of dollars on security tools if an attacker can get inside your company buildings and slip out unnoticed.
Cyber Penetration Testing
A cyber penetration test, often called ethical hacking, is a cybersecurity technique organizations use to identify, test and highlight vulnerabilities in their security posture. These penetration tests are often carried out by ethical hackers which utilize strategies and actions of a real attacker in order to evaluate the vulnerability of an organization’s computer systems, network or web applications. Organizations can also use pen testing to test their adherence to compliance regulations.
Our certified ethical hackers and penetration testers identify and mediate physical and cyber integrity faults in an organization’s security.
Corporate Phishing Education Campaigns
A phishing campaign carried out by our ethical hackers simulates a common email scam designed to steal login credentials or other personal information from victims. Real world cybercriminals use phishing by disguising as a trustworthy organization or reputable person in an email communication.
Phishing is very popular with cybercriminals because it allows them to steal sensitive financial and personal information without having to break through the defences of a computer or network. In our education campaigns, we use social engineering techniques to convince email recipients into inputting personal or financial information. Any and all information gathered with our engagements is kept strictly confidential with a full disclosure and remediation report provided to the client upon completion.
We work with assets around the world to locate hidden assets. This information is for intelligence purposes only.

It is often damaging information, and may be revealed to family members or associates rather than to the general public.

Sextortion
Sextortion refers to a form of blackmail in which sexual information or images are used to extort money or sexual favours from the victim. Social media and text messages are often the source of the sexual material and the threatened means of sharing it with others. An example of this type of sextortion is where people are extorted with a nude image of themselves they shared on the Internet through sexting. They are later coerced into performing sexual acts with the person doing the extorting or are coerced into posing or performing sexually on camera, thus producing hardcore pornography. This method of blackmail is also frequently used to outing LGBT people who keep their true sexual orientation private.
