Sophos, a provider of innovative security solutions for defeating cyber attacks, has announced the launch of Sophos Advisory Services, a suite of security testing services designed to identify gaps in organisations’ security programmes. These offerings – External Penetration Testing, Internal Penetration Testing, Wireless Network Penetration Testing and Web Application Security Assessment – help fortify an organisation’s defences against cyber attacks and optimise their current security investments.
Regardless of an organisation’s size or security maturity, assessing cybersecurity posture is critical to staying ahead of threat actors, demonstrating regulatory compliance, and building trust with customers, partners, and stakeholders. The Sophos State of Ransomware 2025 report highlights that the number one root cause for ransomware attacks is exploited vulnerabilities, and 65% of organizations globally reported a known or unknown security gap as a reason for being exposed to a ransomware attack.
“Adversaries are increasingly skilled at exploiting the smallest cracks in an organisation’s security programme. With Sophos Advisory Services, we give customers a proactive advantage – helping them find and fix weaknesses before attackers can exploit them. Backed by real-time insights from Sophos X-Ops threat intelligence, our experts enable organisations to strengthen resilience, meet compliance requirements and build lasting trust with stakeholders,” Jake Dorval, Senior Director, Sophos Advisory Services.
The following services – informed with threat intelligence research and insights from Sophos X-Ops, along with findings from threat hunting and incident response engagements – are now available –
- External Penetration Testing: Simulates an attacker trying to breach your perimeter from the outside.
- Internal Penetration Testing: Simulates an insider threat or an attacker who has already breached the perimeter, focusing on systems, applications, and data within the internal network.
- Wireless Network Penetration Testing: Assesses the security of an organization’s Wi-Fi networks and infrastructure and evaluates their compliance with appropriate mandates.
- Web Application Security Assessment: Tests an organization’s web applications for security vulnerabilities and design weaknesses.
