Stay Ahead of Threats. All Year Round.
Cyber threats don’t operate on a schedule, and neither do we. Silverback Cyber’s Continuous Penetration Testing service moves beyond the traditional point-in-time assessment model to give your organisation real, ongoing visibility into your attack surface.
Rather than a snapshot of your security posture once a year, continuous penetration testing delivers rolling assessments performed by elite offensive security specialists throughout your engagement period. New vulnerabilities are identified as your environment evolves, giving you the intelligence you need to stay ahead of adversaries.
Why Continuous Testing?
Traditional annual penetration tests are valuable, but they only tell you how secure you were on the day of the test. In fast-moving organisations, new code gets deployed, infrastructure changes, and misconfigurations creep in every week. A vulnerability introduced on day two of your annual testing cycle won’t be found for another 363 days.
Continuous penetration testing closes that gap. Our consultants maintain an active understanding of your environment, retesting remediated findings, assessing new attack paths, and providing ongoing reporting that reflects your actual, current risk posture.
What’s Included
Each continuous engagement is tailored to your organisation, but typically covers:
- Regular scheduled and ad-hoc assessment cycles across agreed scopes
- Retesting of remediated vulnerabilities with confirmation evidence
- Ongoing access to a dedicated senior consultant who understands your environment
- Monthly and quarterly reporting with trend analysis and risk reduction metrics
- Priority notification and advisory for critical findings outside normal reporting cycles
- Coverage across web applications, internal and external infrastructure, APIs, and cloud environments
- Integration support with your development and DevSecOps workflows
Who Is It For?
Continuous penetration testing is particularly well suited to organisations with high-velocity development cycles, regulatory obligations requiring ongoing assurance, complex or expanding attack surfaces, and mature security programmes looking to move beyond checkbox compliance.
Whether you’re a scaling SaaS company shipping weekly releases or an enterprise managing a broad and evolving infrastructure, our service adapts to your pace.
Our Approach
Silverback Cyber consultants are practising offensive security professionals, not analysts running automated scanners. Every finding is manually verified, clearly documented, and accompanied by practical remediation guidance written for the people who will actually fix it.
We hold elite industry certifications including OSCE3 and GXPN, and bring deep hands-on experience across complex enterprise environments. You get the same calibre of testing used in red team operations, applied continuously to your environment throughout the year.
