Cybersecurity Testing
Test your school’s security to identify and confirm your school or trust's cybersecurity strengths and weaknesses.
Test the school's offensive security by scanning and analysing
vulnerabilities existing in the IT systems
External infrastructure vulnerability assessment
- The scanning and analysis of vulnerabilities in internet-facing IT systems
- Our team uses the tools that attackers use during the early stages of some attacks
Internal infrastructure vulnerability assessment
- The scanning and analysis of vulnerabilities in internal networks and systems, such as servers, desktops, laptops and tablets
- Our team uses the tools that attackers use, when inside your network, to discover devices that are susceptible to further exploits
Penetration Testing
-
What is a penetration test?
This is a comprehensive level of technical assurance for testing systems and processes as agreed between the school and the Secure Schools Offensive Security team.
-
How do we conduct the test?
The offensive security team uses the same tools, tactics, techniques and procedures that attackers use to identify and confirm your school or trust’s cybersecurity strengths and weaknesses.
-
How does the test help schools?
Commissioning a penetration test helps your school to tackle real cyber security risks before attackers get there first.
Who is cybersecurity testing for?
- Primary schools, secondary schools, independent schools and academy trusts with relatively mature cybersecurity programmes.
- Edtech suppliers and software applications seeking technical assurance.
