Penetration Testing

 

The strongest cybersecurity strategies don’t just rely on preventative measures. They also test how well those defences perform against real-world attack techniques. Penetration testing helps identify vulnerabilities before they can be exploited, giving you a clear understanding of where improvements are needed.

Our penetration testing services simulate genuine cyber attacks to assess your systems, applications and infrastructure in a safe, controlled environment. Every assessment includes clear findings, practical recommendations and expert guidance to help strengthen your security and reduce cyber risk.

Cyber Essentials

 

Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus provide recognised ways to demonstrate that your business has essential cybersecurity controls in place, helping you meet customer expectations, strengthen tender opportunities and support cyber insurance requirements.

We help you prepare for certification by identifying gaps, putting the right controls in place and guiding you through the process. We partner with an IASME-accredited security specialist to carry out the certification, providing independent checks and impartial validation that the required standards have been met.

We moved to Curveball as we needed an IT partner that would work with us to help support our business growth and general IT needs. Curveball have provided a friendly and helpful approach through James and Peter, who have both taken the time to provide a bespoke service, as well as understanding our requirements on a day to day basis. From protecting us against cyber threats to managing our cloud systems through Microsoft Azure, they’ve taken care of it all seamlessly.
