Trethtec offers a pragmatic no-nonsense approach to security, we’ll show you how real world threats operate allowing you to find and fix the gaps in your security.

Trusted by

Security is important for everyone from individuals to corporations. It provides peace of mind so you can focus on what matters to you.

Adam Ross-Marrs
Trethtec Director

Over the years, we've identified a gap in the traditional approach to penetration testing. While siloed tests may satisfy compliance requirements, they often fall short of addressing the real-world threats organisations face.

At Trethtec, we take a different approach. Our consultative and collaborative penetration testing services go beyond the checklist. We help you design realistic attack simulations, deepen your team's understanding of emerging threats, and leave you confident in your ability to detect and respond to actual attacks.

Whether you're looking for ongoing support through our CounterSOC service or a one-time penetration test through our Snapshot service, our solutions are always tailored to your unique needs. At Trethtec, we’re not here to sell security snake oil - we’re here to make a measurable difference in your security posture.

Benefits of working with Trethtec

We’ve seen how the sausage is made – Over our years in the industry, we’ve worked at traditional high volume penetration testing shops, sausage factories and puppy mills. They have their place but it’s not for us, and we don’t believe it serves you either. Don’t settle for anything less than outstanding customer service, quality, and consultancy you can trust.

Engineer led

When you engage Trethtec to carry out a test you speak to an experienced pentester, who will talk through your engagement in plain English. We find this produces better scopes, better tests, and better outcomes.

Nothing behind the curtain

We believe in complete transparency, after all, trust and integrity is a pretty key part of being a security practitioner. We share all our tools, tactics and procedures

Bedside Manner

Security is hard enough without your consultant threatening fire and brimstone and prophesying the end times. Yes, sometimes it's bad and needs fixing yesterday, but it's all in the delivery.

Moving the needle

Nothing depresses us more than when we’ve delivered an engagement and feel like it was just a check in the box. We want to enable and face down battle-hardened security teams stopping all of our attacks in their tracks.

Working with Trethtec

In our customers’ words

Trethtec carried out two site visits for us last Winter. I wanted to test the physical security at our core factory facility and our head office and see what the tester could do with a day at each site.

Adam carried out a highly professional assessment of both sites including night and day visits. He sneaked past security guards, compromised our network and extracted information from our staff multiple times at each location. We finally caught him two days after he started with his feet up on our MD’s desk.

During the wash up meeting we were provided with an incredibly thorough briefing of findings, photographs, maps and observations. The report we received went far above and beyond what we expected from two days' work and what we had come to expect from other providers.

We had been working with another testing provider who carried out the same test but with a fraction of the results. Other testing providers provided a service more akin to an audit whereas Trethtec demonstrated what a real motivated adversary could achieve.

We’re working on a large library of terms and frequently asked questions.

You can view all of them by clicking below - or feel free to reach out to us about anything else.

How are your security testing services different from other providers?

We won’t insult your intelligence by claiming to be the best—every company says that. The truth is, while technical expertise is abundant in this industry, the real value lies in translating that expertise into meaningful improvements for your organisation. While our team boasts exceptional technical talent, we place equal emphasis on soft skills, collaboration, and truly understanding your needs. We’re highly consultancy-driven, ensuring more face time with your consultant and a tailored approach. Simply put, we don’t start testing until we’ve fully understood your challenges and how to help you improve your security posture effectively.

How do you ensure confidentiality and security during security testing?

Security is our business, and we eat our own dog food! We take confidentiality and security very seriously throughout the testing process. All engagements are governed by strict legal agreements, including non-disclosure agreements (NDAs), to protect your sensitive information. Our testing is conducted in a controlled manner to minimise disruption, and any data collected is securely stored and handled in compliance with best practices. Only authorised personnel have access to your data, and it is deleted after the engagement unless otherwise agreed.
