Penetration Testing

We would attack your systems the way a real adversary would — with CREST-accredited ethical hackers who think like the threat actor, using your permission so attackers can never do it without it.

About the service

You get tested by humans, not just scanners

Automated scanners alone find less than a third of the real attack surface. We would put CREST-accredited testers on your systems — humans who think like the adversary and chain small flaws into the high-impact compromises that would actually threaten your business.

  • Manual exploitation by CREST-accredited testers — not just scanning
  • Step-by-step remediation handed straight to your engineers
  • Executive summary written for your boardroom
The challenge

You can't defend what you don't know is vulnerable

Automated vulnerability scanners find less than 30% of real-world attack surface. Our manual penetration testers would chain vulnerabilities the way real attackers do — turning a low-severity misconfiguration into full domain compromise when the conditions allow it.

For you, every engagement concludes with an executive summary written for the boardroom and a technical report with step-by-step remediation guidance written for your engineers — not a dump of scanner output.

Test types

Every attack surface you care about, covered

Network Penetration Testing

External and internal network testing covering perimeter, lateral movement, Active Directory and segmentation bypass.

Web Application Testing

OWASP Top 10 and beyond — authentication flaws, injection attacks, IDOR, SSRF and business logic vulnerabilities tested manually.

Mobile Application Testing

iOS and Android application security testing covering insecure data storage, API abuse, certificate pinning and reverse engineering.

Cloud Configuration Review

AWS, Azure and GCP configuration testing — misconfigured storage buckets, over-permissive IAM roles and cloud-native attack paths.

Social Engineering

Phishing simulations, vishing campaigns and physical security assessments that test the most overlooked layer: your people.

Red Team Operations

Full-scope adversarial simulations testing your detection, response and resilience against an advanced persistent threat actor.

Our methodology

Rigorous. Documented. Repeatable.

01

Scoping

We work with you to define targets, rules of engagement, testing windows and success criteria before a single packet is sent.

02

Reconnaissance

OSINT gathering, passive reconnaissance and attack surface mapping to understand your exposure from an attacker's perspective.

03

Exploitation

Manual exploitation of identified vulnerabilities with careful impact control to demonstrate real business risk without causing outages.

04

Reporting & Debrief

Technical report plus executive summary delivered within 48 hours, followed by a live debrief with your engineering and leadership teams.

Client feedback
Client result
"The LinqTechub red team got domain admin in 4 hours using a vulnerability our internal team had marked as 'low risk.' That report changed our entire security roadmap."
