#### Prepare your infrastructure and team from attacks by identifying and fixing them before an attacker can exploit them

**With cyber security becoming ever more important, stay on the front foot by engaging The Missing Link to handle your offensive security requirements**

Armed with critical threat intelligence, you’ll be better able to:

- Drive improvements in all areas of security
- Create contingency plans** **
- Improve your defence capabilities
- Arm yourself with data needed for stakeholder buy-in

**Comprehensive testing:** Offensive security services offer multiple testing events that can assess and improve your IT environment and organisation as a whole.

Designed to simulate the strategies used by real-world malicious actors, our team use a range of methods, including:

- Vulnerability Assessments
- Penetration Testing
- Social Engineering
- Full-scale Red-teaming Engagements

**Security assessments:** Testing usually starts with a vulnerability scan. Our team will then use their skills and years of experience to manually identify and contextualise security vulnerabilities, ensuring issues such as business logic security vulnerabilities are identified where automated testing would fail. We’ll also deliver a roadmap to ensure your organisation meets industry best practice standards and its security goal for the future.

**Accredited and award-winning team:** The Missing Link is a CREST-approved and ISO-certified organisation, so you can be assured that we have some of the best in the business when it comes to security testing. Our ethical hackers form one of the strongest offensive security teams. Among them are Offensive Security Certified Professionals, Offensive Security Certified Experts, and an Offensive Security Exploitation Expert.

The Missing Link’s team of security experts regularly compete in and win “Capture the Flag” events, including Canberra’s BSides’18, BSides’19 and SpectreOps Red Team Operations Training events. They also attend, and more importantly, run, talks at some of the industry's most prestigious events.

#### Your partner in Offensive Security Services

Hackers are always looking at ways to find vulnerabilities in your security, so it’s vital to protect against attackers.

Protect your business

Protect your business from costly and damaging security breaches. Clients and staff alike will lose confidence in an organisation that leaves itself open to attacks.

Protect data

Because data is a valuable commodity, data attacks are one of the most common cyber threats. A data breach can leave personal and financial data vulnerable.

Prevent spyware and adware

Spyware and adware are infections and viruses that can spy on your computer’s actions and relay that information back to the cyber-criminal, or fill your computer with advertisements.

Integrated solution

We can implement a comprehensive solution and roadmap to protect against a diverse range of issues. We look at your existing infrastructure and integrate the most up to date security testing policies.

I’ve worked with several vendors across different industries, and over the past ten years, I’ve noticed that as teams have become leaner, the customer experience has been degraded - not so with The Missing Link. The customer journey has been excellent from start to finish and beyond. They understand my changing needs and willingly adapt in response to different projects and timelines. Strong leadership is evident at The Missing Link – they take staff on, develop their skills and promote them. Consequently, it’s rare to find a new face there – I enjoy the personal touch that only comes from having known members of the team over several years.

The new platform is continually kept up to date with categorisation and profiling of new threats and classification of existing traffic. Being able to focus on what is actually happening rather than reacting to close a new threat has saved a lot of time. Being able to see where our compliance was not 100%, we were able to act early and educate our people on the dangers and implications of not following our policies. This has helped us pro-actively understand patterns and educate our staff about the risks of the Internet before we have a serious incident.

David Lucas | Customer Solutions Manager, George Weston Foods

We engaged The Missing Link to do penetration testing for our front-page portal. As a school, we always joke that we have more uptime than a bank - our staff, students, and parents demand access to our apps 24/7 - so minimising disruption during this process was imperative. The Missing Link was highly professional and systematic in its approach. The preparation and testing went smoothly, and indeed, they identified a critical issue with the app that the vendor had been unaware of. The Missing Link immediately notified us of the issue in an interim report, then liaised directly with the vendor to have it resolved.   I have only worked with The Missing Link for a short engagement, however, I have already put them in the category of a trusted consulting service. I would have no hesitation in engaging them for further IT infrastructure and security projects.
