What penetration testing coordination actually is

We coordinate, scope and remediate pen tests run by accredited third parties.

When you need it

Annually, after major architecture changes and as a control for ISO 27001 / SOC 2.

What Forth delivers

Scope brief, vendor selection, finding triage and tracked remediation.

The pitfall we don't repeat

Receiving a 200-page PDF and never closing the medium findings.

How we engage

Fixed-scope discovery, a 30-day pilot against a real workload, and a continuation engagement with named UK-based engineers. Every artefact is version-controlled and ready for second-line review.

Frequently asked questions

Do you deliver penetration testing coordination as a managed service?

Yes. We can run penetration testing coordination as a one-off engagement, as part of a programme, or as a continuous managed service with monthly reporting.

Can you work alongside our in-house team?

Yes — most engagements augment an existing team. We work to your tooling, your standards and your release process, not ours.

What evidence do you produce for our auditors?

Every engagement produces traceable evidence: scenarios mapped to requirements or controls, run logs, defect history and a sign-off pack your second line can use without rework.

How fast can you start?

Most penetration testing coordination engagements start within 2-4 weeks of a signed SoW, faster if there's an existing supplier framework in place.
