Network Penetration Testing evaluates the security of internal, external, and wireless network infrastructure.
Attackers frequently target network infrastructure as it can be a vulnerable entry point. Weaknesses in network architecture, authentication systems, and infrastructure configuration can compromise your critical systems and give attackers access to sensitive data.
Our Network Penetration Testing service provides you with a clear understanding of how resilient your infrastructure is against external and internal threats.
What we offer
If you’re concerned about the above risks, contact us for our Network Penetration Testing.
Real world simulation
Our Network Penetration Testing simulates real-world cyberattacks. Because of this, you’ll get a clear understanding of how your organisation would fare against an actual attack.
Controlled offensive testing
Controlled offensive testing helps us find vulnerabilities that could compromise your systems. We use deep manual analysis alongside thorough system scanning. This methodology identifies vulnerabilities that automated scanners and basic security testing often miss.
Outcomes
From this exercise you will gain actionable insights to strengthen your defensive posture and mitigate risk to your organisation
What you receive
Our Network Penetration Testing will give you a clear understanding of how attackers could exploit your network infrastructure, and how to prevent this from happening. We also provide a comprehensive and actionable report, designed to support your technical teams and business stakeholders.
The report includes:
A summary of key findings and risk levels
Technical descriptions of your vulnerabilities
Proof-of-concept demonstration of successful attacks
Risk ratings based on severity and business impact
Practical remediation guidance
Recommendations for improving network security

What we assess
Our Network Penetration Testing includes external, internal and wireless network assessments.
Simulates attacks from the internet against an organisation’s publicly exposed
infrastructure. It focuses on systems accessible from outside the organisation such as,
Internet-facing servers, VPN gateways, remote access services, email, web and DNS
servers, firewalls and perimeter devices. Vulnerabilities include exposed services and
ports, software versions, misconfigured networks, encryption or protocols, authentication,
and remote code execution flaws.
Simulates an unauthenticated attacker with access to a network port, or an attacker who
has gained access to the internal environment. Testing shows how easily an attacker could
move within the network and escalate privileges, allowing them to disrupt services or take
data. Examples include compromised workstations, a malicious insider, attackers with
access via phishing, a compromised VPN account. We assess the following: Active
Directory, privilege escalation opportunities, network segmentation controls, lateral
movement between systems, credential harvesting, access to sensitive systems.
Simulates attacks against wireless infrastructure, networks, and connected devices.
Vulnerabilities include bypassing authentication controls, weak Wi-Fi passwords or shared
keys, misconfigured access points, rogue or unauthorised wireless devices, intercepting
wireless communications, pivoting from guest networks into internal corporate networks.
We also assess a wide range of infrastructure components.
Network Devices: firewalls, routers, switches, load balancers, VPN gateways.
Servers and Infrastructure: domain controllers, file servers, database servers, web servers, application servers.
Authentication Infrastructure: Active Directory environments, identity management systems, authentication servers, single sign-on infrastructure.
Remote Access Systems: VPN services, remote desktop services, bastion hosts, administrative access portals.
Wireless Infrastructure: Corporate Wi-Fi networks, Guest networks, enterprise authentication systems (WPA2/WPA3 Enterprise), pre-shared key networks (WPA2/WPA3 PSK), access point configurations, wireless controllers and management systems.
What frameworks we follow
Our testing methodology aligns with recognised industry security frameworks:
OWASP Testing Methodologies
NIST SP 800-115
ISO / IEC 27001
MITRE ATT&CK
These frameworks ensure testing reflects realistic attacker techniques and globally recognised best practices.
FAQ
Find answers to common questions about our services and what to expect from your experience with us.
How often should network penetration testing be performed?
Network penetration testing is typically conducted annually or after significant infrastructure changes.
Do you test both internal and external networks?
Yes. Our assessments can evaluate internet-facing infrastructure as well as internal corporate environments.
Will testing disrupt our systems?
Testing is conducted carefully to minimise operational disruption. High-risk exploitation is coordinated with stakeholders.
Can cloud environments be tested?
Yes. Network testing can include cloud infrastructure depending on the engagement scope.
