Cybersecurity Testing & Penetration Testing Services
Complete Vulnerability Assessments and Penetration Testing Services (VAPT)
Secure a comprehensive and budget-friendly evaluation of your cybersecurity posture. We uncover risks and vulnerabilities that may impact your organisation, cloud, networks, Operational Technology/SCADA system and devices. We provide you with identified risks and guided remediation steps/options and support its implementation.
Why Penetration Testing Services Are Crucial for Modern Cybersecurity
Vulnerability assessments and penetration testing (VAPT) are two essential cybersecurity services that can help businesses to identify and fix security vulnerabilities in their IT systems and networks.
A vulnerability assessment can identify known security vulnerabilities in software, hardware, and network configurations. A penetration test simulates a real-world cyberattack to see if attackers can exploit any of the identified vulnerabilities.

Cybersecurity FAQ’S
1. What is penetration testing (pen testing) and why do I need it?
A penetration test, or pen test, is a simulated cyber attack against your computer systems to check for exploitable vulnerabilities. The purpose is to identify security weaknesses before a real attacker does. It’s a critical practice for strengthening your security, meeting compliance requirements, and protecting your data.

2. How much does a penetration test cost in Australia?
There is no fixed price for a penetration test, as the cost depends on the scope and complexity of the systems being tested (e.g., a simple website vs. an entire corporate network).
A quality pen test in Australia can range from a few thousand dollars to tens of thousands. We provide a detailed quote after a free scoping consultation.
3. How long does a penetration test take?
There is no standard answer for the time it takes to conduct a penetration test, as it depends on the objectives, approach, and the size and complexity of the environment (attack surface) to be tested – the scope of the work to be undertaken.
An app or small environment can be completed in a few days, but a large, complex environment can take weeks.
4. What's the difference between a vulnerability assessment and a penetration test?
A vulnerability assessment is an automated process that scans for and lists potential vulnerabilities. A penetration test is a manual, goal-oriented exercise where our ethical hackers actively try to exploit those vulnerabilities to see how far they can get. A pen test provides real-world proof of risk.
5. What is a penetration test report?
A penetration test report lists the identified vulnerabilities and exploits, categorised according to risk level and recommendations for remediation based on key insights into the cyber-threat landscape.
A good-quality penetration tester will also conduct debriefing sessions targeting two separate audiences:
A technical debriefing aimed at system administrators and engineers. The technical briefing is intended for knowledge transfer – of the lessons learned during the penetration test – to the IT security team.
An executive debriefing tailored for the technology management group. This session provides the information needed to determine the appropriate risk management strategy.
6. How often should penetration testing be done?
Including regular penetration testing in your ongoing cyber security and information security management program is the best approach.
Compliance requirements mandate regular penetration testing – for example, PCI DSS compliance requires penetration testing at least annually or during infrastructure and application modifications and upgrades that significantly change the environment.
Unfortunately, many organisations aim to meet only the minimum requirements of penetration testing to achieve compliance – and believe themselves to be secure. This is a dangerous mindset.
As the threat landscape is ever-evolving, your cyber security company will be your best point of contact to advise on the frequency and level of compliance required to meet your organisation’s specific risk profile and cyber security needs.
7. What happens after a Cyber Ethos penetration test?
Upon completion, we provide a comprehensive report that details our findings, the risks they pose to your business, and clear, actionable recommendations for remediation. We also conduct a debriefing session with your technical team to ensure they understand the results and the steps needed to improve security.
