Social media is a significant target for hackers due to the confidential information companies store and the potential to distribute malicious content such as fake news. Phishing attacks are also widely used against organisations in this sector, with attackers often posing as trusted contacts or customers.

Establishing robust and reliable contingency plans to respond promptly to data breaches, which is essential given the sector's high profile and the potential reputational damage that could ensue.

See What Our Clients Have to Say About our Professional Services

Pentest People stand out in the field of penetration testing due to the skillset of people they have working there. We undertook a complex bespoke pentest with them which required a lot of pre-work in order to make sure it was scoped correctly and they took the time to come onsite to make sure all was correct prior to commencing. From my experience with them, they are very intelligent people with a deep understanding of the security landscape and we will continue to use them for future testing requirements”.
