External Penetration Testing
External penetration testing is a core security assurance activity that helps organisations understand the vulnerabilities exposed through their internet-facing systems and services. Weakly configured or vulnerable perimeter systems can lead to data loss, service disruption or wider compromise of an organisation.
RM Information Security tailors each external penetration test to maximise its value rather than simply relying on automated scanning tools. We work with you to understand the scale and complexity of your infrastructure, including dependencies on third-party suppliers and business partners.
Our testing uses recognised methodologies and resources including MITRE ATT&CK to help deliver a consistent and thorough assessment of your external attack surface.

Beyond the Penetration Test
An external penetration test helps validate the effectiveness of existing security controls and identify vulnerabilities that could expose your organisation to attack.
However, the work following a penetration test can be just as valuable. We work with clients to review their infrastructure architecture, develop appropriate security build standards and implement effective controls to address identified weaknesses.
Our aim is to help clients reduce their exposure to future attacks and make informed security decisions as their infrastructure and business requirements evolve. Read about our testing process, reporting and aftercare.
