The Council for Registered Ethical Security Testers (CREST) is a not-for-profit accreditation and certification body representing the technical information security industry. All CREST member companies must undergo a rigorous assessment of their services, processes and quality to ensure consistency of knowledge against the evolving security backdrop and are required to repeat the assessment every three years to ensure the highest standards are upheld.
Pen testing is a vital part of cyber security strategy as it simulates a hacking scenario and provides you with important information about your defenses that may have otherwise been missed. Outpost24 penetration testers have the skills to match a modern-day threat actor by using their ethical hacking background and leverage the same Tactics, Techniques and Procedures (TTPs) an adversary would use to identify security weaknesses in your web application infrastructure so you can take the right actions and steps to mitigate against this.
The CREST certification underlines our commitment to ensuring our business processes, people and security testing methodologies are maintained at the highest level at all times. As such, our customers can be confident that they are receiving industry trusted and fully optimized application security services, performed by highly-skilled, knowledgeable, and competent security professionals as a part of our web application security testing solutions.
