What is Physical Penetration Testing:
Physical Penetration Testing (PPT) is a method to test the current security processes and protocols that your company employs and to test the compliance of your staff. It’s an excellent opportunity to test whether your business or organisation is safe or easily accessible to potential threats and vulnerabilities from both outside and inside. We will not only test your current security protocols by attempting to gain entry into your premises, but we will deliver a comprehensive report outlining recommendations for implementation
Who might benefit from PPT:
Financial institutions
Establishments that want to see if their staff are complying with the security policies
Companies who hold sensitive and/or personal information
Org’s which store items reported/monitored by Schedule 5 of the Crime & Security Act 2001
Establishments that have security processes in place to protect company assets and its staff
Any company who wishes to reduce their insurance premiums by proactively testing
Companies that have a theft culture
You may have servers at your premises and are interested to see if they can be breached
Companies that feel they may be or have been targeted
Org’s which incinerate controlled substances and/or seized contraband
Prove to your client(s) and staff that you are secure in all aspects of your business
Businesses that store harmful chemical or substances
To test your GDPR compliance
Any company who wishes to test how easy or hard it is to gain access to their buildings.

Our testing teams are highly experienced security and surveillance specialists, having gained their experience from either Intelligence, Specialist Military or Police backgrounds. In addition we have access to operatives with specialist knowledge of how criminals operate. We work on a strictly confidential basis providing our services to a number of industries, government facilities and companies
Our Approach (Target dependant):
Phase-1: Initial reconnaissance
Passive reconnaissance and open source intelligence (OSINT) is used to gather information on the organisation and its business estate
Phase-2: Active reconnaissance & covert observations
On the ground surveillance, walk around to identify entrances/exits; surveillance of employed and manned guards, uniforms, badges, cameras etc. Opportunist attempts to breach the security may be made
Phase-3: Attack Planning/Pretexting
Develop pretext, arrange badges/passes etc.
Phase-4: Targeted Testing
Execute attack using covert techniques to penetrate the physical security, gathering video evidence
Phase-5: Reporting
Report on vulnerabilities & provide recommendations.
