Protecting Local Government with Expert Penetration Testing
“We needed to find a way to meet very tight budget constraints. Of the suppliers we spoke to, only CyberLab demonstrated what we felt was a genuine desire to engage with us to reach a workable solution for both parties. I’d recommend CyberLab not just for their expertise in the whole cyber security area, but for their personalised and professional approach.”
– Mark Smith, Server Support Manager, Nottingham City Council

Benefits of Penetration Testing for SOC 2 Compliance
Find Vulnerabilities in Trust Services Criteria
Penetration testing helps you uncover critical vulnerabilities in your systems that could impact the Security and Availability criteria required for SOC 2 compliance. With a proactive security audit, you’ll identify weaknesses before they are exploited.
Ensure Effective Risk Mitigation
SOC 2 places emphasis on how effectively an organisation can manage and mitigate risks related to data security and privacy. Pen testing provides actionable insights into security flaws, enabling you to remediate issues that could compromise sensitive customer data.
Demonstrate Security to Key Stakeholders
Penetration testing offers verifiable proof that your organisation is committed to meeting SOC 2’s high standards for security and processing integrity. A robust penetration test report boosts your credibility, assuring clients and partners that their data is protected.
Ongoing Compliance Assurance
SOC 2 compliance isn’t a one-off task - it requires continuous monitoring and improvement. Regular penetration testing supports your long-term compliance efforts by helping you stay ahead of emerging threats and vulnerabilities that could jeopardise your security framework.
