If you're responsible for your organisation’s cyber security, you already know that reacting to threats isn’t enough. You need to stay ahead of them. That’s where cyber security testing comes in.

Attackers are not waiting for your next audit, your security needs to be up to scratch all year round. They look for weak points, whether that’s a misconfigured firewall, a forgotten admin account, or someone clicking on a phishing email. And they often find those gaps faster than internal teams realise. Regular and continuous cyber security testing is crucial to protect your organisation.

Why cyber security testing matters

Traditional vulnerability scans serve a purpose but they often deliver surface-level insights, miss chained exploits, and lack context. Today’s attackers don’t rely on CVE databases alone they exploit misconfigurations, leverage compromised credentials, and blend in with legitimate behaviour.

Cyber security testing must mirror that mindset.

Integrity360’s cyber security testing services are designed to go beyond checklist compliance. We simulate real-world adversary behaviour through a layered approach:

• Penetration Testing identifies and exploits vulnerabilities in networks, applications, and endpoints.
• Red Team Exercises mimic targeted attacks using custom TTPs aligned with frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK.
• Social Engineering uncovers the human weaknesses technical controls can’t mitigate.
• Configuration and Build Reviews ensure foundational infrastructure is hardened against compromise.

Penetration testing for targeted discovery and tactical impact

Penetration testing remains one of the most valuable tools for cyber defenders. By simulating the techniques of real-world attackers, it provides tangible evidence of what could happen if defences fail.

Integrity360’s Penetration Testing services mirrors cyberattacks to evaluate your organisation’s defence systems. Our expert ethical hackers help identify vulnerabilities, offering solutions to enhance your security. 

Our testers don’t just highlight weaknesses—they demonstrate potential impact, providing clear attack paths and context-rich remediation strategies. Each test is delivered with detailed technical findings, business risk alignment, and practical fixes.

Red teaming

Red teaming takes cyber security testing to the next level. Instead of targeting individual systems, red team engagements emulate an end-to-end cyber attack scenario—blending reconnaissance, exploitation, persistence, and exfiltration.

A red team exercise typically includes:

• Custom threat scenarios based on sector-specific adversaries
• Covert infiltration across physical, digital, and human attack surfaces
• End-to-end kill chain simulation, from initial access to domain dominance

The objective isn’t to highlight every vulnerability, it’s to expose critical failures in visibility, response coordination, and detection logic. Red team outcomes help security teams fine-tune tooling, reduce dwell time, and build resilience against advanced persistent threats (APTs).

Social engineering

While technical defences are critical, attackers often bypass them using the most unpredictable vector—people.

Integrity360’s social engineering services include:

• Phishing and spear-phishing simulations
• Pretext phone calls and voice phishing (vishing)
• Physical intrusion attempts including tailgating and badge cloning

These campaigns expose gaps in user awareness, onboarding processes, and physical access control. Just as importantly, they offer a mirror into your organisation’s culture and ability to report suspicious behaviour.

Our approach focuses on constructive learning, not punishment. Every campaign is paired with detailed metrics and training recommendations to raise security awareness without eroding trust.

Configuration and build reviews

Even the best defences can fail if the foundations are flawed. Misconfigured servers, over-permissive access, and unpatched systems remain some of the most exploited entry points.

Integrity360’s Configuration & Build Reviews assess systems at a granular level, including:

• OS and server configuration baselines (Windows, Linux, cloud hosts)
• Network devices (firewalls, routers, switches)
• Database configurations and access policies
• Secure build templates and golden image validation

These reviews are mapped to best practices such as CIS Benchmarks, NIST 800-53, and ISO 27001. We identify gaps between intended policy and actual implementation—ensuring your core infrastructure doesn’t become your weakest link.

Making cyber security testing strategic, not siloed

True value lies in how cyber testing integrates into your wider security programme. That means:

• Testing regularly, not just annually
• Linking results to risk appetite and business impact
• Tracking remediation in a structured, measurable way

Integrity360 supports this through our Vulnerability Portal—centralising findings, remediation tracking, and evidence for compliance reporting. Whether you're managing patch cycles, responding to red team outcomes, or preparing for an audit, the portal provides clarity and accountability.

Attackers don’t wait for compliance cycles. They don’t follow playbooks. They adapt, iterate, and probe for gaps.

To defend effectively, cyber security teams must think—and test—like attackers. That means combining penetration testing, red teaming, social engineering, and configuration reviews into a coherent strategy.

When these elements work together, organisations move from reactive firefighting to proactive resilience.
