Penetration Testing Retainer

Reserved, CREST-accredited testing capacity on tap, so expertise is there the moment you need it.

What is penetration testing retainer?

A penetration testing retainer reserves an agreed amount of our testing time, giving you priority access for scheduled and on-demand tests, and often incident support, without procurement delays each time.

Why it matters

When you need testing urgently, for a client deadline or after a scare, sourcing and onboarding a tester from scratch costs precious days. A retainer removes that friction.

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.
