Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a penetration test?

No. This service is an independent review and advisory engagement, not penetration testing or a technical assurance certification. I can help you identify when specialist testing is appropriate and interpret the results.

Can you help us prepare for ISO 27001 or SOC 2?

Yes. I can assess your current technical and operational security practices, identify gaps and recommend practical next steps. Certification and formal audit outcomes are determined by the relevant independent certification or audit bodies.

How is the engagement scoped?

The scope is agreed around your organisation, systems and goals before work begins. It can focus on a specific concern or provide a broader review of your security posture.
