Penetration Testing in Whanganui

Penetration Testing for New Zealand organisations operating in and around Whanganui. CREST-aligned penetration testing for web apps, APIs, internal networks and cloud environments — findings ranked by exploitability, not just CVSS.

Median time-to-first-finding under 6 hours — across Basalt engagements in the past 12 months.

  • Findings without business context or fix guidance
  • Retesting that takes weeks to schedule

How we engage

  • Scoped engagement plan with rules of engagement
  • Findings prioritised by exploitability and blast radius
  • Executive summary suitable for the board and regulators
  • Free retest of fixes within 90 days

Local context

Why Basalt for penetration testing in Whanganui

Senior-led delivery

Every Whanganui engagement is led by a senior consultant — no junior pipelines, no resold capacity. New Zealand clients deal directly with the operators doing the work.

Mapped to New Zealand context

Findings and roadmaps reference the regulatory environment your business actually operates in — Privacy Act, ASD Essential Eight, NCSC guidance, MAS TRM, as relevant.

On the frontier

Our active testing library tracks the threats Basalt sees across NZ, AU, UK and Singapore — including AI-augmented attack chains that most regional providers haven’t mapped yet.
