An ethical hacker for businesses in North Wales
We work across North Wales — Wrexham, Deeside and the coast — onsite where it helps and remote UK-wide. Wherever you are in North Wales, you deal directly with the senior hacker doing the work — from the first scoping call through to the retest — not an account manager and not a junior with a scanner. We’re based in Albrighton and work onsite across the West Midlands and Shropshire at no travel charge, and remotely across the rest of the UK, with any travel quoted as a transparent separate line.
What an ethical hacker can do for you
The point of the exercise is a realistic picture of your risk, not a scanner printout. That means penetration testing of your web applications, infrastructure and cloud; authorised phishing and red-team work that tests people as well as technology; and clear findings your board can read and your IT team can act on, with a retest to confirm the serious issues are actually closed.
Don’t judge an ethical hacker by the certificate
The phrase people search for is ‘certified ethical hacker’, but the CEH is largely a multiple-choice knowledge exam — it shows someone studied the material, not that they can actually find and exploit a real weakness in your systems. What tells you that is a verifiable track record: published CVEs, bug-bounty results and hands-on qualifications. We set out why in full on our certified ethical hacker page, along with how to vet a tester.
Verify the track record before you trust it
Anyone can run a scanner and call themselves an ethical hacker. The people worth hiring can point to work you can check for yourself. Ours is a matter of record:
- 500+ valid findings across public and private bug-bounty programmes — real, triaged vulnerabilities, not scanner noise.
- Published CVEs discovered first-hand, with responsible-disclosure credits from organisations including SAP, Red Bull, Western Union, Carta and American Express.
- Synack Red Team since 2022 — an invitation-only team vetted on skill and trust — with Envoy, Hero, Olympian and Circle of Trust recognition earned since.
- Thousands of hours of hands-on offensive testing over a 25-year career in technology, backed by company-level CREST accreditation.
That is a stronger claim than any certificate, and every part of it is verifiable. We would rather you checked than took our word for it.
Common questions
Do you actually come onsite in North Wales?
Yes where it helps. We’re based in Albrighton and cover North Wales onsite; across the West Midlands and Shropshire there’s no travel charge, and elsewhere travel is quoted transparently. A lot of testing is done remotely with no loss of quality.
Do I need a ‘Certified Ethical Hacker’ specifically?
No. The CEH is a multiple-choice knowledge exam; it doesn’t prove someone can break into a real system. Look for CREST accreditation and a verifiable track record instead — which is what we bring.
How quickly can you start?
Standard lead time is two to three weeks, often sooner at short notice for a contained scope. Tell us your deadline on the first call and we’ll be straight about what’s achievable.
