Cybermetrix strongly believes that an element of Social Engineering should be conducted in all Penetration Tests, due to the fact that humans are involved in all security processes.
In almost all instances employees will provide the weakest link in an organisation’s security arsenal. As a consequence, social engineering tests that feed directly in to security awareness training programs provide a direct mechanism for organisations to tackle this vulnerability.
our working processin 3 steps
Every step taken by your organisation to capture, store and process information can be tested: the systems and buildings that the information is stored in, the transmission channels that transport it, and the processes and personnel that manage it.
MORE ABOUT US +planning & strategy
At this point, they are ready to develop the strategy for the attack. Thanks to the information they’ve gathered so far, they can decide which tools and techniques to use to best hit the system.
Social Engineering
This phase is the Social Engineering. Using the tools or techniques identified in the previous step, they exploit the vulnerability to break into the organisation.
Report
We usually provide the organisation with a detailed report of the vulnerabilities found, the description of the attack they performed and recommended actions to secure your company.

Cybermetrix team understand IT Security is only one of your business concerns, we ensure security assessments and penetration tests go as smoothly as possible, helping your business identify and fix discovered security issues
Avoid downtime and Breach costs
Network downtime caused by a data breach can cost up to £3 million, with the average cost of a breach costing £36,500. Pen testing allows your organisation to help identify exploitable vulnerabilities proactively before they are exploited by a malicious attacker allowing you to intelligently plan remediation and give priority to critical and high level findings.
Vulnerability Management
Penetration testing provides a severity ordered report, documenting vulnerabilities that are proven to be exploitable, removing false positives from the equation. Allowing your organisation to proactively identify which vulnerabilities are critical and which are less critical or false positives.
Meet Regulatory and Compliance Standards
Performing a penetration test helps companies and organisations address the general auditing requirements for PCI DSS. Testing also helps address ISO 27001 requirements by obtaining an organisations exposure to vulnerabilities and providing measures to remediate discovered issues.
Preserve Brand, Corporate image & customer confidence
Data breach, compromised accounts and exposed external data cost money and can negatively affect brand image and sales. Penetration testing helps identify and fix vulnerabilities that could be used to exfiltrate confidential, sensitive and personally identifiable information.
