Pen Testing

Find security weaknesses before attackers do

Cyber attacks rarely happen because organisations do nothing — they happen because hidden weaknesses go unnoticed. Penetration testing helps you find and fix those weaknesses before they are exploited, reducing the risk of data loss, service disruption, and reputational damage.

At Simbix, we deliver practical, business-focused penetration testing that shows you what really matters — not just long lists of technical findings.

What Is Penetration Testing?

Penetration testing (often called ethical hacking) is a controlled, authorised attempt to break into your systems in the same way a real attacker would.

Our specialists simulate real-world cyber attacks to identify:

how an attacker could gain access
what systems or data could be compromised
how far an attack could spread
what the business impact would be

The result is clear, prioritised insight into where your security needs strengthening.

How We Work

We don’t rely on automated scanning tools alone. Our approach combines expert manual testing with proven attack techniques to uncover real-world risks that automated tools often miss.

Every engagement is tailored to your organisation, your technology, and your risk profile — whether you are a regulated financial services firm, a growing technology business, or a critical service provider.

Our Penetration Testing Services

Website & Application Testing
We evaluate websites and business applications to uncover vulnerabilities that could lead to unauthorized access, data breaches, or service interruptions. This encompasses login controls, user permissions, and application logic.

Mobile Application Security Assessment We analyze mobile apps and their associated systems to ensure that customer and business data is adequately safeguarded from interception, manipulation, misuse.

Network & Infrastructure Assessment We conduct simulated attacks on your internal and external networks, testing firewalls, servers, and devices to understand how an intruder could navigate your environment.

Security Assessment Cloud environments come with unique risks if improperly configured. examine identity controls, access permissions, and cloud setups to mitigate the chances of data exposure or account breaches.

Wireless & Device Security Evaluation We assess Wi-Fi networks and connected devices to pinpoint insecure access that may serve as potential entryways into your organization.

Social Engineering & Phishing Testing Technology alone isn't sufficient. We evaluate your organization's vulnerability to phishing emails, phone scams, and other deceptive tactics that could trick staff into granting access to attackers.

Red Team Advanced Attack Simulation For organizations seeking comprehensive assurance, we advanced attacks across people, processes, and technology to gauge detection, response, and overall cyber resilience.

Secure Configuration & Code Review We analyze system configurations and critical code to identify vulnerabilities early, helping to prevent security issues before systems are launched changes are implemented.
