AUTOMATED PENETRATION TESTING
Find vulnerabilities before attackers do.
Automated penetration testing for web applications, APIs, networks, and cloud infrastructure. Built for SMEs — continuous, framework-aligned, and priced for businesses that can't justify a five-figure annual engagement.
CORE CAPABILITIES
Five attack surfaces.
Tested together.
Real attacks chain weaknesses across surfaces — a leaked credential opens a cloud console, a misconfigured storage account exposes an API key. The platform tests all five surfaces together, because that's how attackers work.
Web Application Testing
OWASP Top 10 vulnerability detection. Cross-site scripting, SQL injection, CSRF, authentication bypass, and session management testing.
API Security
REST and GraphQL endpoint testing. Authentication flaws, injection vulnerabilities, rate limiting assessment, and data exposure checks.
Network Perimeter
Port scanning, service enumeration, vulnerability assessment, and SSL/TLS configuration analysis across your external attack surface.
Cloud Configuration
Azure, AWS, and GCP security misconfiguration detection. IAM policy review, storage exposure, and network security group analysis.
Credential Testing
Password spraying, default credential detection, brute force assessment, and privilege escalation pathway identification.
HOW IT WORKS
Automated.
Explained.
The platform tests systematically and prioritises findings that matter.
Scope
Define your attack surface: target applications, APIs, and network ranges, with testing boundaries and intensity levels you control. The platform only tests assets you own and have authorised in writing, and exclusions — fragile systems, production databases, third-party services — are honoured throughout the run.
Scan
The engine works through the five attack surfaces systematically — web applications against the OWASP Top 10, APIs for authentication and injection flaws, network perimeter, cloud configuration, and credentials — chaining findings to identify likely attack paths rather than just listing isolated issues.
Report
Findings are sorted by severity with step-by-step remediation guidance in plain language, opening with an executive summary for non-technical stakeholders. Re-run after fixing to verify each issue is actually closed.
Methodology
The platform is built around established testing frameworks: the OWASP Web Security Testing Guide and OWASP Top 10 for web applications, the OWASP API Security Top 10 for APIs, and CIS-aligned configuration checks for cloud estates. Tests are non-destructive by default, and every check is logged so you can see exactly what was tested and when.
Reporting is designed to support the evidence needs of UK assurance frameworks such as Cyber Essentials and the NCSC Cyber Assessment Framework — findings map to the controls they affect, not just CVE numbers.
WHY NEFIQ
Professional security. Reasonable pricing.
A traditional manual penetration test typically costs £5,000–£15,000 and takes two to four weeks per engagement — most SMEs commission one annually at best. Raw automated scanners are cheap but produce noise that still needs expert interpretation. We're building the middle ground: continuous, framework-aligned testing with findings explained in plain language.
Affordable
Subscription-based pricing rather than per-engagement fees, so testing becomes a predictable operating cost instead of a once-a-year capital decision.
Continuous
Run tests on your schedule — after every release, monthly, or continuously — instead of finding out about a vulnerability a year after it was introduced.
Actionable
Findings prioritised by severity with concrete remediation guidance, so the work queue is obvious — fix the critical issue on the login form first, not 400 informational notes.
