Testing services

Choose the assessment that answers your security questions.

Different testing methods serve different objectives. Explore the options below to identify the assessment that fits your systems, risks and assurance needs.

Testing services

  • Vulnerability assessment

    Identify potential security weaknesses across agreed systems and prioritise investigation and remediation, with coverage defined in advance.

    Best suited to Organisations that need a broad, prioritised view of weaknesses across agreed systems before deciding what to investigate first.

    Typical output Prioritised findings and recommended actions.

  • Penetration testing

    Controlled validation of whether weaknesses can be exploited within an agreed scope, with evidence, impact and limits recorded.

    Best suited to Teams that need evidence of which weaknesses can be exploited before launching a sensitive system, or when a customer or regulator asks for testing results.

    Typical output Validated findings, supporting evidence and remediation advice.

  • Secure code review

    Examine agreed source code and application logic for implementation weaknesses, with coverage limits stated and practical corrections recommended.

    Best suited to Development teams that want implementation weaknesses found in agreed components, with corrections they can apply in their own code.

    Typical output Code-level findings and recommended corrections.

  • Red teaming

    Objective-led simulation of an agreed adversary scenario within explicit boundaries, with observations on prevention, detection and response.

    Best suited to Organisations that want to test whether an agreed attack objective can be reached, and how prevention, detection and response perform.

    Typical output Attack-path evidence and observations about prevention, detection and response.

  • Purple teaming

    Collaborative exercises that examine selected attack techniques with defensive teams, to validate detection and response and prioritise improvements.

    Best suited to Security operations teams that want to check detection and response against specific attack techniques, and improve them together with the testers.

    Typical output Detection observations and prioritised improvement actions.

Compare the services

Each method answers a different question. The outputs shown are typical; the actual scope and deliverables are agreed for each engagement.

Service Question it answers Focus Typical output
Vulnerability assessment Where are the weaknesses? Identification and prioritisation. Prioritised findings and recommended actions.
Penetration testing Which weaknesses can be exploited? Controlled validation within an agreed scope. Validated findings, supporting evidence and remediation advice.
Secure code review Which implementation choices introduce security weaknesses? Agreed source code and application logic. Code-level findings and recommended corrections.
Red teaming Can an agreed adversary scenario achieve its objective? Objective-led attack simulation. Attack-path evidence and observations about prevention, detection and response.
Purple teaming How can defenders improve against selected attack techniques? Collaborative testing and defensive validation. Detection observations and prioritised improvement actions.

How testing supports assurance

Technical findings can inform risk treatment, security improvements and assurance evidence. The appropriate assessment depends on your obligations, environment and objectives.

Testing supports a wider assurance programme; it does not establish compliance or certification on its own.
