Prove your network security with a penetration test
Vulnerability Assessments, Penetration Testing and Ethical Hacking Services
All security standards from Cyber Essentials+ up to PCI-DSS, ISO 27001 or the NHS DSP ToolKit require a penetration test at least once a year in order to prove the effectiveness of your network security to stop hackers from stealing or corrupting your data from inside or outside your network. Increasingly Insurance Companies and Regulators are asking for penetration tests to be performed before granting insurance or approving membership. We can also offer CHECK accredited penetration testing where mandated by public sector projects.
Cool Waters Penetration Testing and Ethical Hacking services will strengthen your defences and identify vulnerabilities before malicious actors exploit them.
Uncover Hidden Weaknesses
With Penetration Testing, you gain invaluable insights into the real-world capabilities of potential attackers. Our skilled and certified ethical hackers simulate sophisticated attacks on your systems, unveiling hidden weaknesses that could jeopardise your business. This proactive approach shines a light on vulnerabilities that might otherwise remain undetected, giving you the upper hand in protecting your sensitive data.

What is Penetration Testing?
You can prove the effectiveness of your network security and network monitoring by asking an ethical hacker to try to break into (penetrate) your network - and then write a detailed report which describes what they did, how they did it and the changes you need to make to stop a malicious hacker from being able to do the same.
Top quality Penetration Testing (or PenTesting) makes use of both automated tools and human powered intuition and ingenuity in order to be effective.
Types of Penetration Testing
There are two types of PenTesting: Internal and External.
With an External Test, the pentester attempts to break into your network from the Internet - just like a malicious hacker would coming from Russia, China or anywhere else in the world.
With an Internal PenTest, the tester starts off from an agreed location within your network and then tries to see how far they can get and what data that are able to access (all the time ensuring your data actually remains safe and secure). An Internal PenTest is able to demonstrate how malware would be able to expand across your network if a single PC became compromised through a phishing attack for example.
What do you get?
At the end of your penetration test you will receive:
A detailed technical report which explains what was found and guides your technical team how to solve the vulnerabilities and flaws discovered
An executive report in plain English and explains the security stance and risk profile of your network and gives strategic advice and recommendations how to better protect the business going forward.
We also offer a technical call to answer any questions your team has and a board level presentation of the findings and recommendations to share with your leadership team
