Physical Security Testing & Real-World Attack Simulation

Test your defences the way a real adversary would

Physical penetration testing and attack simulation that identifies the vulnerabilities a determined intruder would find first.

Physical Security Testing

Security posture is only proven when it is tested

Access controls, cameras, and procedures give the impression of security. Whether they hold depends on how they perform against someone actively trying to defeat them. We test that, safely and under controlled conditions, so the gaps are found by us rather than by an adversary.

What we do and why

We conduct physical penetration testing and real-world attack simulation against sites, systems, and procedures. Our teams attempt to gain access using the same methods a real intruder would: tailgating, social engineering, credential cloning, and exploitation of procedural gaps.


The purpose is not to catch staff out. It is to produce an honest picture of how a site performs under pressure, and to give leadership a clear, prioritised list of what to fix. Testing is scoped carefully and conducted with full authorisation and defined rules of engagement.

What we test

Perimeter & access control

Gates, doors, barriers, and the procedures that govern them.

Social engineering resistance

How staff respond to pretext, pressure, and unauthorised requests.

Credential & system exploitation

Cloning, tailgating, and gaps between physical and digital access.

Procedural failure points

The routine assumptions and shortcuts that create openings.

How we deliver it

Every engagement begins with scoping: objectives, boundaries, and rules of engagement agreed in writing with the client. During testing, our teams document each stage, capturing how access was gained and where controls held or failed.

On completion, we deliver a clear report: what we achieved, how, and what to change. Recommendations are prioritised by real-world risk and practicality, so the most important fixes are obvious. Where required, we can retest after remediation to confirm the gaps are closed.

A control you have never tested is an assumption, not a defence.
