Penetration Testing Services for UK SaaS and Technology Teams
Commission an assessment that gives product owners, developers and customer security reviewers a shared view of risk. CyberSecurityArm provides independent remote testing for UK technology businesses, with delivery led by Florjan Llapi in Tirana, Albania.
Discuss your testing scopeStart with the decision your UK buyer needs to make
Procurement asks for testing evidence
Product changes need assurance
Developers need a usable remediation plan
Web, API and supporting security scope
A UK software engagement starts with the service the buyer is evaluating and the boundaries your organisation can authorise. Agree customer and administrator roles, API access, representative tenants, third-party restrictions and the risk scenarios that matter to the product.
Customer portals and SaaS applications
Assess access control, organisation boundaries, authentication, account recovery and business workflows. Include administrator features explicitly rather than assuming they are covered by a public-facing scan.

Review REST or GraphQL permissions, object-level access, token lifecycle and privileged functions across customer, staff and integration accounts.
Explore this testing serviceSupporting networks and identity
Where relevant, define separate infrastructure or Active Directory assessment boundaries, connectivity and authorised attack paths before adding them to the product engagement.
Explore this testing serviceCloud-hosted services
Agree which cloud services, identities and configuration areas are included, who can authorise them, and whether the work is configuration review, active testing or both.
Explore this testing serviceCheck procurement eligibility before commissioning work
UK buyers can have provider requirements beyond technical skill. Send any accreditation or approved-provider condition during the initial discussion. CyberSecurityArm does not claim CREST company accreditation or NCSC CHECK approved-provider status. Florjan's OSCP+ and CEH are individual practitioner credentials and should be evaluated as such.
For commercial SaaS procurement, agree the evidence format with the customer before testing. The engagement can document scope, methods, findings and remediation status. A report supports a security review; it does not by itself certify compliance with ISO 27001, UK GDPR or another assurance framework.
A clear remote engagement for a UK working day
Coordinate GMT or BST
Meeting, testing and escalation windows are agreed in the applicable UK time zone. Identify a technical contact who can address access problems and coordinate urgent findings while testing is under way.
Define commercial terms
The proposal sets the scope, testing effort, deliverables, exclusions and any retest. Confirm price, invoice currency and contractual requirements as part of the engagement rather than relying on a generic package.
Agree handling with your reviewers
Define who receives full technical findings and whether a redacted version is required. Data-handling, access, report transfer and retention conditions are agreed before sensitive evidence is exchanged.
Evidence that connects the review to remediation
The report should let risk owners understand business exposure and let engineers reproduce and fix the technical issue. A test records what was assessed at that time; ongoing security management remains necessary after delivery.
- An executive assessment tied to the tested product or service
- A record of authorised boundaries, testing dates, methods and limitations
- Technical findings with evidence, severity, reproduction and remediation guidance
- An agreed reporting debrief and a redacted review copy where required
- Retest outcomes for the agreed fixes, with open items clearly identified

Questions from UK buyers
Are you a UK-based penetration testing company?
CyberSecurityArm is based in Tirana, Albania and provides remote testing to UK teams. Meeting, testing and escalation windows are agreed around GMT or BST as appropriate. No UK office or UK-only delivery is claimed.
Are you a CREST-accredited or CHECK provider?
CyberSecurityArm does not claim CREST company accreditation or NCSC CHECK approved-provider status. Florjan Llapi holds OSCP+ and CEH practitioner credentials. If a tender requires a particular provider status, confirm eligibility before commissioning work.
Can the report support a UK customer security questionnaire?
Yes, the agreed report can supply evidence of the tested scope, methods, findings and remediation status. Share the customer's requirements before testing; the customer decides whether the provider and evidence meet its criteria.
How do you choose between a scan and a penetration test?
A scan helps identify potential issues across assets. A scoped penetration test adds manual investigation of access control, business logic and attack paths. The scoping discussion should establish the assurance question and select the work that addresses it.
What determines cost and retest timing?
The applications, roles, API surface, infrastructure, access conditions and reporting needs determine testing effort. Price, invoice currency and retest scope or timing are recorded in the proposal. A generic turnaround is not guaranteed.

Describe the service, approximate scope, buyer requirements and target deadline. Provider eligibility, testing windows and deliverables can then be addressed in the scoping discussion.
