Social Engineering
We test the human side of your security, using safe, controlled pretext calls, in-person approaches and tailored lures to see how your people respond to manipulation, then help you build habits that hold up under pressure.
We test the human layer of your security
Attackers know it is often easier to trick a person than to break a system. We recreate the calls, visits and messages your staff really face, measure how they respond and turn the results into practical training.
Pretext Calls
We phone staff posing as suppliers, IT or colleagues to see what information and access they give up.
Physical Approaches
We attempt tailgating, impersonation and access to restricted areas to test on-site awareness.
Baiting & Drops
We use dropped devices and tempting documents to test whether curiosity leads to a click or a connection.
Impersonation
We pose as trusted people over email, phone and in person to test verification habits.
Reporting Behaviour
We measure how many staff spot the approach and report it through the right channel.
Awareness Coaching
We turn every result into clear, practical guidance so your people learn from the experience.
Your People Are Your Strongest Defence, and Your Biggest Target.
Technology can only do so much when an attacker simply asks for what they want. A convincing caller, a familiar logo or a moment of pressure at the end of a busy day is often all it takes for a helpful employee to hand over a password, hold open a door or run an attachment. These are not failings of character, they are gaps in process and habit.
We test your people the way real attackers do, but safely and with care. Every scenario is agreed in advance, run ethically and reported without naming or blaming individuals. You come away knowing exactly which pretexts worked, where your verification steps broke down and how to coach your teams so the right response becomes second nature.
Standards and Frameworks We Work To
- Our scenarios are built on the social engineering tactics catalogued in the MITRE ATT&CK framework, so you can see each technique we used mapped to a recognised reference.
- We follow the Social Engineering Penetration Testing Execution Standard and clear rules of engagement so testing stays ethical, controlled and safe for your staff.
- Awareness outcomes are aligned to ISO 27001 and NIST guidance on security education so the training we recommend supports your compliance and governance goals.
Aligned to the frameworks that matter
Our testing follows the methodologies that set the global standard for application security.
