Nettitude Achieves ‘6 Star’ Penetration Testing Accreditation

Posted by Media marketing on Sep 1, 2014 10:54:06 AM

Nettitude has added another string to its penetration testing bow today, following confirmation from CREST – the not-for-profit organisation that serves the needs of the technical information security marketplace – that our testing team has successfully achieved full CREST STAR (Simulated Target Attack & Response) status. STAR is arguably one of the most sophisticated approaches for delivering penetration testing. Through combining comprehensive threat data with a “Red Team” style of testing, STAR assessments are designed to deliver some of the strongest levels of assurance available to organisations across the globe.

Adding the STAR certifications to Nettitude’s existing CREST accreditations means that it has reached the highest possible level of assurance, becoming one of only two companies in the UK to have achieved full CREST accreditation for supplying penetration testing services.

Ian Glover, President of CREST commented: “Adding the STAR certifications to Nettitude’s existing CREST accreditations, means that it has reached the highest possible level of assurance, becoming one of only two companies in the UK to have achieved full CREST accreditation for supplying penetration testing services.”

Rowland Johnson, our CEO, commented on the news earlier today: “This excellent achievement is a testament to the dedication, skill and expertise of our testing team and further evidences our ability to deliver first-class penetration testing services to organisations that are faced with a host of ever-evolving and increasingly sophisticated cyber threats.”
