Our capabilities
While we steer clear of tick box exercises, the groupings below will give an insight into our capabilities at TrethTec. By working with us in an ongoing engagement, we will assess your largest vulnerabilities and work with you to secure them over time.
In this case study, a routine web application test uncovered a folder full of exposed source code, this in turn revealed a pathway into the application's cloud environment and access to the web server. While exploring the web server, a key for a payment service was identified. After crawling through the service documentation, a startling possibility came to light, funds could be redirected to a bank account of the consultants' choosing. After getting the green light from the client, the consultant demonstrated the vulnerability's severity by executing a, unauthorised transfer of funds. This stark demonstration showcased the risks associated with information disclosure, chaining together vulnerabilities, and learning new technology on the fly.

Given the sensitive nature of our work, most of our customers prefer to remain anonymous, which can make providing references challenging. However, we have a range of anonymised case studies showcasing our experience across various testing disciplines and industries. These demonstrate the depth of our expertise and the value we provide to organisations facing diverse security challenges. Let us know your area of interest, and we’d be happy to share relevant examples.
The duration of a security test varies significantly depending on the provider and the scope of the engagement. Traditional tests can last anywhere from a single day to several months, depending on the complexity and budget. Managed services, such as CounterSOC, typically operate on a continuous basis with year-long contracts. For meaningful security work, we generally advise against engagements shorter than a week, unless the scope is genuinely minimal or involves only a few minor checks. Attempting to compress complex security operations into a short timeframe often leads to poorer results and, in the worst case, a false sense of security.
