Social Engineering Assessment
A social engineering assessment tests whether people in your organisation can be tricked into giving away access or information. It uses agreed, ethical scenarios such as phishing emails, phone calls impersonating IT support, or SMS messages, and reports results by team rather than shaming individuals.
- Manual, expert-led testing
- CVSS-rated report with fixes
- Retest after you fix
- Written scope before work starts

Why test people as well as systems
Many incidents start with a convincing message or phone call. Testing shows which scenarios work, which teams need support and whether reporting processes are used. Scenarios are approved by you in writing before anything is sent.
Scenarios we can run
- Email phishing (credential and attachment)
- Voice phishing (vishing) to helpdesk and staff
- SMS phishing (smishing)
- Pretexting and impersonation
- MFA fatigue and approval scenarios
- Reporting-process checks
Requirements Indian businesses usually test for
In India, the trigger for a test is often regulatory. RBI expects regulated entities and their technology vendors to run periodic VAPT. SEBI's cybersecurity framework asks market intermediaries for regular testing. CERT-In directions require organisations to maintain security practices and report incidents. The Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act 2023 requires reasonable security safeguards for personal data.
Enterprise customers also ask vendors for a recent third-party pentest report during security reviews. We write reports so the same document can be shared with a regulator, an auditor or a customer's security team.
How the engagement runs
1. Scoping call (30 minutes)
We agree targets, user roles, environments, testing windows and the compliance reason for the test.
2. Written scope and quote
You get a scope document and an INR or USD quote based on the real size of the work.
3. Discovery and manual testing
Automated tooling for coverage, then manual testing of authentication, access control and business logic.
4. Report
Executive summary, CVSS-rated findings with evidence, reproduction steps and remediation guidance.
5. Retest
Once your team ships fixes, we verify each finding and issue an updated report.
What the report contains
- Executive summary for leadership, customers and auditors
- Findings rated by CVSS severity with screenshots and request evidence
- Step-by-step reproduction for your developers
- Specific remediation guidance, not generic advice
- Compliance mapping (ISO 27001, SOC 2, PCI DSS, RBI, SEBI, CERT-In guidelines) where relevant
- Retest status showing which findings are open and closed
Certifications our testers hold
Every engagement is led by a certified senior tester.
