Penetration Testing for Norwich Teams

East of England

Norwich has been an insurance city for more than two centuries, and general insurance and its supplier base still shape a large part of local employment. Alongside it sit the Norwich Research Park, home to plant, food and health science institutes and the University of East Anglia, and a digital and creative scene of agencies building sites and apps for clients across the region.

Insurers are among the most demanding software buyers in the UK. Their third-party risk teams ask suppliers for recent independent testing before onboarding and at each renewal. Research spin-outs face a similar question from funders and commercial partners, and agencies increasingly get asked by their own clients who tested the platform they built.

What Norwich Teams Bring Us to Test

Insurance and insurtech suppliers

Quote engines, broker portals and claims platforms hold personal, financial and sometimes health information. Insurers' supplier risk teams expect pentest evidence before a contract is signed, and regulators expect insurers to manage that third-party risk.

What we focus onQuote and pricing logic, broker-to-broker data separation, claims document uploads, policy amendment workflows, and whether customers can see or change another policyholder's details through the API.

Research park spin-outs

Companies spun out of plant, food and health research often build data platforms and lab software for commercial partners. Those partners, and investors in later rounds, want to see that the platform has been tested independently.

What we focus onDataset access controls between partner organisations, sample and results records, research data exports, API tokens issued to collaborators, and how account access is removed when a collaboration ends.

Digital and creative agencies

Agencies build and host customer-facing sites, booking tools and member portals for clients across East Anglia. Clients now ask agencies to prove their builds were tested before launch, especially when personal data is collected.

What we focus onContent management admin panels, form handling and file uploads, plugin and third-party library exposure, staging environments left online, and member account takeover through password reset flows.

What We Often Find

Insurance, research and agency-built software in Norwich tends to share a few recurring weaknesses, mostly around trust placed in the browser and in partners.

Premium calculated in the browser

Some quote journeys work out the price client-side and submit it with the application. Changing the request can bind cover at a lower premium, a direct financial loss that also undermines pricing models.

Broker sees another broker's book

Broker portals often filter lists by firm in the interface but not in the API. Calling the endpoint directly with a different firm ID can return another intermediary's clients and policies.

Claims uploads stored unchecked

Claims portals accept photos and documents from the public. Without strict type checks and safe serving, an attacker can upload HTML or script that runs when a handler opens the file.

Agency staging sites left public

Staging copies of client sites are often left online with debug output on and weaker passwords. They can leak real customer data, admin credentials or configuration secrets that also work on production.

What Norwich Buyers Ask For

FCA and PRA operational resilience

Insurers must show they can stay within impact tolerances for important business services. A supplier pentest report gives their resilience teams evidence that a third-party platform has been tested and fixed.

PRA SS2/21 outsourcing

Insurers regulated by the PRA must assess material outsourcing and third-party risk. Independent testing results from a CREST company are standard evidence in those supplier assessments.

Funder and partner data agreements

Research collaborations and grant partners often require appropriate technical security for shared data. A dated pentest report and retest letter show a spin-out's platform meets that expectation.

Before you book.

Our insurer client sent a 200-question supplier assessment. Will your report cover the testing section?

It covers the questions about independent testing: who tested, when, the method, what was found and whether it was fixed. We include a retest and can provide an attestation letter for sharing. Questions on policies, staffing or business continuity still need your own answers.

We are an agency. Can the report be issued to our client rather than to us?

Yes. We can address the report to your client, to your agency, or both, as long as the client has authorised testing of the system. Many agencies commission the test, fix any findings, then pass the final report and retest results to the client at handover.

Our spin-out platform runs on university infrastructure. Who has to approve the test?

Whoever owns or operates the systems in scope. If the app is hosted on university servers or networks, their IT security team usually needs to sign off and may set conditions such as source addresses or timing. We can supply the details they need before testing starts.

Do you have an office in Norwich?

No. CyberFortify has no Norwich office. Web application and API tests run remotely, which is how almost all application pentests are delivered. Kick-off, critical alerts and the report walkthrough happen in UK working hours, and the price is the same £2,400 flat.

Why is it cheaper than UK day-rate firms?

Our AI Pentest Agent covers the breadth of your app: mapping every page and API route and checking the known issues. That frees our CREST-accredited engineers for exploitation, access control and business logic. Fewer billable days means one flat fee instead of a day rate. Every finding is still validated by a person before it reaches your report.

Is CyberFortify really CREST accredited?

Yes. CyberFortify is a CREST member company, accredited for Penetration Testing and AI-Enabled Penetration Testing, and a signatory of the CREST AI Charter. You can check our listing on the CREST Marketplace before you book.

What counts as one application?

One web product your users sign in to, plus the API behind it. Size doesn’t change the price: a large SaaS platform with many roles is still £2,400. A mobile app, an internal network or a cloud configuration review is a separate scope, and we’ll quote it on the call if you need it.

Is the price really fixed?

Yes. £2,400 per application, agreed on the scoping call before testing starts. The retest of your fixes is included. There are no day rates, so the invoice doesn’t grow if testing takes longer.

Is Cyber Essentials Plus the same as a penetration test?

No. Cyber Essentials Plus is a certification with a hands-on check of five basic controls. It doesn’t test your application for vulnerabilities the way a penetration test does.

Are you a CHECK company?

No. CHECK is the NCSC scheme for UK government and critical national infrastructure systems. If your contract names CHECK, you need a CHECK company, and we’ll tell you so on the call. CyberFortify is CREST accredited.

How fast can you start?

Testing usually starts within a week of the scoping call, and most reports are ready in four to seven working days. Criticals are flagged within 24 hours of discovery.

What happens to our data?

CyberFortify works under ISO 27001 certified processes. Client data from the engagement is disposed of afterwards, as set out in the statement of work. Every assignment carries professional liability insurance and Koop cyber insurance.
