Cyber Security

Penetration testing, secure code review, hardening and monitoring — findings you can reproduce and fix, not a scanner dump.

Why Choose Anawaz?

Wallpaperflare com wallpaper — Anawaz

We test, harden and monitor the systems your business depends on. That means penetration testing which produces reproducible findings rather than an exported scanner report, hardening work that actually closes what the tests found, and monitoring so the next problem surfaces in hours — not at breach-notification time.

  • Penetration Testing – Manual, scoped testing of web, mobile, API and infrastructure, with reproducible findings and clear remediation guidance.

  • Vulnerability Assessment – Regular authenticated scanning across your estate, triaged by real business risk rather than raw severity scores.

  • Secure Code Review – Reading the code, not just probing the surface: authentication, authorisation, injection, and secrets handling.

  • Cloud & Infrastructure Hardening – Configuration review against recognised benchmarks, least-privilege access, network segmentation and usable logging.

  • Monitoring & Incident Response – Detection, named escalation paths and defined response commitments, so an incident never starts with a customer email.

How an engagement runs

  1. Scope and rules of engagement — what is in scope, what is explicitly out, testing windows, and who to call if something breaks. Agreed in writing before anything starts.
  2. Reconnaissance and mapping — understanding what the application does before trying to break it.
  3. Testing — manual, chained, and focused on the paths that lead to business impact rather than a list of conditions.
  4. Reporting — findings with reproduction steps your developers can follow, severity argued in business terms, and what was not covered.
  5. Retest — verification that the fixes actually closed the issue, because unverified remediation is guesswork.

What a real report contains

An honest test report states its own limits. Ours includes the scope and time available, the areas not reached, and at least some findings a scanner could never produce — authorisation gaps, business-logic abuse, and issues chained together into a route an attacker would actually take.

If a report reads as a reformatted scanner export, you paid for a test and received a scan. That distinction is covered in detail in our guide to penetration testing versus vulnerability scanning.

Common questions

Will testing take our systems down?
Testing is scoped to avoid it, and destructive checks are agreed in advance or run against a copy. We also agree a stop signal and who holds it.

Should we give you credentials and documentation?
Yes. A real attacker has unlimited time; you are buying days. Given access and architecture notes, those days go into finding flaws rather than rediscovering your URL structure — substantially more value per pound.

How often should we test?
Annually for most organisations, plus after any significant change to authentication, authorisation or payments. Continuous scanning covers the routine hygiene in between.

Can you fix what you find?
Yes, through our software engineering team. Where the root cause is governance rather than a single bug, our information security practice addresses it.
