Move beyond the once-a-year pen test. PTaaS gives you regular, CREST-accredited testing that keeps pace with how your systems actually change.
What is penetration testing as a service?
Penetration testing as a service (PTaaS) replaces the single annual test with an ongoing programme: scheduled tests to an agreed cadence, on-demand tests when you ship changes, and free retests, all from the same trusted team.
Why it matters
Your systems change every week, but a once-a-year test only tells you how secure you were on one day. The gaps in between are where breaches happen, and clients, insurers and tenders increasingly expect evidence of continuous, not one-off, assurance.
How we slot in
We slot into your world, not the other way round. We agree a testing cadence that fits your business and budget, quarterly, monthly, or tied to your release cycle, run the tests, retest your fixes for free, and stay on call for on-demand tests whenever you ship something significant. You get predictable fixed pricing and one point of contact.
Human-led, and it gets sharper over time
Our testing is CREST-accredited and human-led, and we are also accredited for AI-Enabled Penetration Testing. With an ongoing programme you get the same senior tester over time, so they learn your estate and get sharper with every round, no rotating juniors and no sales team.
What you get
Scheduled tests to an agreed cadence, on-demand tests when you need them, free retests after you remediate, clear prioritised reports for both your board and your developers, and a standing relationship with a tester who knows your systems.
Common questions
How is PTaaS different from a one-off pen test?
A normal pen test is a point-in-time snapshot. PTaaS is an ongoing programme, regular scheduled tests plus on-demand tests and free retests, so your assurance keeps pace with your changes.
Is it more expensive than an annual test?
It is predictable and fixed, and usually better value: you catch far more over the year, and retests are included rather than charged each time.
How do we start a programme?
Book a free scoping call. We will map a cadence and scope to your business and risk, and quote a predictable fixed price. No obligation.
Is your testing genuinely human-led?
Yes. It is CREST-accredited and led by a senior tester; we also hold CREST's AI-Enabled Penetration Testing accreditation, which independently assures how we use AI to assist.
