Penetration Testing
Identifying CarbonQuota security vulnerabilities with our Crest-accredited penetration testing service
Introduction
Our client CarbonQuota, helping clients achieve their Net-Zero ambitions requested the support of Safetech Innovations to help them better protect their business-critical application.
How Safetech Helped
To secure CarbonQuota's business-critical application, help them comply with ISO standards, and ultimately open the door to several new business opportunities, they required Safetech to conduct a penetration test to identify potential vulnerabilities.
Safetech worked with CarbonQuota to ensure the exercise was optimised to cover the most critical security aspects of the application while fitting within their budget constraints.
Business Outcomes
Once the scoping exercise was completed, mutually beneficial dates were agreed upon for the exercise to take place, and one of our expert Crest-accredited pen testers was assigned. Our pen testing lead completed a thorough exercise using automated tools and manual checks in only six days. A detailed, but very clear report was shared with the CarbonQuota team. A follow-up session with the assigned pen testing lead was arranged to clarify questions and add context, allowing the CarbonQuota team to resolve the issues more efficiently.
