Helping organisations win more with good cyber security CREST-accredited penetration testing and Cyber Essentials certification, from a trusted advisor
Cyber security without the headaches
Most organisations buy security when somebody forces them to: a tender closing Friday, an insurer at renewal, a client’s questionnaire. Or after an attack that has already cost them real money. Bought under that pressure it costs more and buys less.
Sorted early it pays you back, and we cover all of it: penetration testing, Cyber Essentials, IASME Cyber Assurance and Defence Cyber Certification that we assess and issue ourselves, SOC support, and a fractional CISO when you want senior security leadership without the full-time hire.

Who We Are
A Small Team.
A Big Difference.
Solusec is a CREST-accredited penetration testing practice and an appointed Certification Body, built on years spent breaking into systems and years more building and leading the programmes that defend them. That full-spectrum background is the point. We work across offensive testing, certification and compliance, and monitoring and incident response, and you deal directly with a senior expert from the first scoping call through to the work being delivered.
You won’t deal with a sales team or a junior analyst. Whether it’s a penetration test, Cyber Essentials or responding to a live incident, every engagement is delivered personally by a cyber security expert: technical enough for your IT team to action, plain enough for your board to sign off.

Response Time

Free, no obligation
Understand your exposure
An attacker’s first move is not an attack, it is a look. So we look first, and send you what we find, worst first.
- Services and ports you did not know were open
- Security misconfigurations on anything public facing
- Known vulnerabilities already indexed by engines like Shodan
- Company credentials sitting in known breach data
The only question is: do you know where and how to look?
We reply within one business day. Prefer to talk first? 01902 288763 or info@solusec.co.uk.
Nothing is touched on your systems. It is all public and already indexed, just scattered. We pull it together, which is what an attacker does first.
