CCL’s accreditations – CHECK, CREST and Cyber Essentials – are more than badges. They show that our work is independently tested, recognised and trusted across government, industry and law enforcement. It’s assurance that your business is in safe hands.
Scans spot known weaknesses, but they don’t show how attackers could exploit them in combination. Penetration testing does; think about it as the difference between spotting loose bricks and checking if someone can break in.
Whenever you launch new systems, update existing ones, or need independent assurance (repeated annually as a minimum) for clients, regulators, or insurers. Pen tests simulate real-world attacks so you know where your weaknesses lie before criminals do.
A pen test looks for technical vulnerabilities. Red teaming goes further, combining technical, physical and social engineering attacks to test your whole organisation’s resilience. It’s ideal when you want to know how well your defences stand up to a determined adversary.
No. SMEs are often targeted precisely because criminals assume their defences won’t have been tested. Independent assurance proves where you stand.
CCL Protect gives you your own fully-fledged cyber team, without the in-house cost.
