Offensive security
Find out what an attacker would find. First.
BlackTide delivers offensive security testing, managed defence and continuous attack surface visibility — so the weaknesses in your environment are found by us, documented with evidence, and fixed before anyone else gets to them.
How we work
Three ways we work with you
Most organizations start with a single assessment and grow into continuous coverage. Every engagement is scoped, safeguarded and agreed before any testing begins.
Penetration Testing & Vulnerability Assessment
Twelve testing disciplines across applications, APIs, cloud, networks, wireless and people — manual, attacker-simulated work aligned to OWASP, MITRE ATT&CK and CIS.
Learn MoreManaged Cybersecurity Services
Continuous monitoring and analyst-led investigation, forensic response when an incident is live, and design-stage threat modelling before systems are built.
Learn MoreDevSecOps
Security embedded into the build pipeline, so issues are caught where they are cheapest to fix rather than in the report at the end.

What you get, every time
A finding is only useful if someone can act on it. Every engagement ends with evidence, severity, and a route to remediation — not a scanner dump.
- Executive summary
- The risk picture in language a board can act on, without the technical detail getting lost.
- CVSS-rated technical findings
- Every issue scored consistently so remediation can be prioritised objectively.
- Proof-of-concept evidence
- Demonstrated impact where applicable — not theoretical risk, reproducible fact.
- Remediation guidance
- Mapped to each finding, so your engineers know exactly what to change and why.
- Optional retesting
- One round of post-remediation validation to confirm the fix actually held.
- Compliance-ready reporting
- Structured to support PCI DSS, ISO/IEC 27001, SOC 2 and other frameworks.
Services
Where most engagements start
Web Application Penetration Testing
Manual, attacker-simulated testing of browser-facing applications — authentication, access control, business logic and injection — aligned to the OWASP Top 10 and ASVS.
Learn MoreCloud Penetration Testing
Testing of AWS, Azure and GCP environments against CIS Benchmarks — IAM, storage permissions, network controls and cloud-native services.
Learn MoreAttack Simulation / Red Teaming
A goal-based, multi-stage simulation of a real adversary, modelled on MITRE ATT&CK — testing whether your controls actually detect, delay and respond.
Learn MoreSOC as a Service
Round-the-clock monitoring, detection and analyst-led investigation across network, endpoint and cloud — without building an in-house SOC.
Learn MoreAPI Penetration Testing
REST, GraphQL and SOAP testing against the OWASP API Security Top 10 — object-level authorization, excessive data exposure and abuse of business logic.
Learn MoreVulnerability Assessment
Structured, repeatable identification of known weaknesses across your environment, with manual validation to cut false positives and prioritise real risk.
