PHYSICAL PENETRATION TESTING
HOW SECURE IS YOUR BUSINESS?
Physical penetration testing is a simulated intrusion attempt that is designed to identify weaknesses in your business’ physical security. This is different from other types of testing as the target is not a cyber one, instead, it is your physical location.
Penetration testing is an active, physical test that our cover operatives actively act as intruders to access your private or business buildings.
Physical security controls include locks, fences, security guards, cameras, and others. During a physical penetration test, a skilled covert operative will attempt to circumvent these controls and gain physical access to restricted areas and identify sensitive information.
Whether it’s your staff or other businesses, nobody will be aware of our covert operatives. We’re also ICO registered for data protection.
Before we start, We’ll talk through the process and answer any questions you may have in complete confidence, leaving you to make an informed decision about what is the best Physical penetration testing for your business.
THE ADVANTAGES OF PENETRATION TESTING
As a business, you have many valuable assets that need to be protected. If a criminal can penetrate the security of your business premises, they may be able to steal these assets which may include valuable data.
The key benefit of Physical Penetration Testing is to, through simulation, identify your weaknesses in security and assist in rectifying them so that they don’t cause you issues in the future. It can also be used to determine your level of physical controls and staff security awareness, identifying opportunities for improvement.
- Exposure of vulnerabilities in your current security systems.
- After a breach, measure the response time of your staff and/or digital systems.
- You can increase security measures before people with bad intentions can do any harm.
- You will have a better understanding of criminal ‘innovations’ worldwide.
- Continuous monitoring of security systems safeguards stakeholders’ trust.
Reporting and Resolving
As part of the assessment, we will provide a report outlining vulnerabilities in your security as well as recommendations to remedy these weaknesses. Using the vulnerabilities outlined and the fixes proposed, you can strengthen your security so that real criminals cannot gain access to your premises the same way our cover operatives did in our simulated physical penetration test.
