Expert Penetration Testing to Protect Your Business
At CommSec we deliver high-quality manual penetration testing that goes beyond vulnerability scanning. Our CREST-certified pen testers have over a decade of experience helping organisations across Ireland uncover real risks and strengthen their cyber resilience.
We simulate real-world attacks to identify weaknesses before threats do, and provide clear, actionable insights to help you improve your security. Partner with us for a thorough assessment that supports your strategy, not just your compliance.
What is penetration testing?
Penetration testing, or a pen test, is a controlled simulation of a cyber attack on your systems, applications, or network. It uncovers vulnerabilities caused by misconfigurations, software flaws, or security gaps in processes and controls.
Many organisations discover too late that not all pen tests are the same. You need a testing partner who delivers depth and value, not a compliance tick-box exercise or just a vulnerability scan.

CommSec’s approach to Pen Testing
We test your environment from an attacker’s perspective using expert methodology and active exploitation where needed. Our findings include risk analysis and practical advice to help you fix issues and reduce exposure. Penetration testing can be offered as a standalone service or as part of a broader security assessment.
Questions before you get in touch
1. How do I know CommSec is the right fit before I commit?
Start with the readiness check or a scoping call, no commitment either way. Most clients speak to the tester directly before agreeing scope.
2. What’s included in the engagement?
Scope definition, testing, a full report with executive summary and technical detail, and remediation support once findings are in.
3. How is pricing structured?
Pricing depends on scope, for example the number of applications, IPs, or endpoints. You’ll get a fixed quote after a short scoping call.
4. How long does a test take?
Most engagements run 5 to 10 days depending on scope, with the report following shortly after testing completes.
