ISO 27001 Driven Penetration Testing
Penetration testing for ISO 27001 compliance
What this engagement covers
The service
ISO 27001 certification requires regular security testing to validate your Information Security Management System (ISMS). Our ISO-driven penetration testing aligns with Annex A controls and provides comprehensive evidence for certification and surveillance audits.
What we test
We perform security testing aligned with ISO 27001 requirements including access control (A.9), cryptography (A.10), physical security (A.11), operations security (A.12), communications security (A.13), and system development security (A.14).
Scoping & Assessment Depth
Black Box Assessment
Zero-KnowledgeSimulates an external adversary targeting ISO 27001 Driven Penetration Testing with no internal credentials, source code, or architecture documentation. Assesses perimeter exposure, unauthenticated attack paths, and edge resilience.
Gray Box Assessment (Recommended)
CredentialedSimulates an authenticated user, tenant, or insider threat within ISO 27001 Driven Penetration Testing. We evaluate role segregation, authorization boundaries, privilege escalation, and business logic flaws across user tiers.
White Box / Source-Assisted
Full-KnowledgeConducted with direct access to architecture schematics, configuration files, and API/code documentation. Eliminates blind spots and provides exhaustive coverage of security mechanisms governing ISO 27001 Driven Penetration Testing.

What you receive
Findings land in your tracker as you go, not only in a PDF at the end. Retest is in scope, not a change order.
- ISO 27001 aligned security assessment
- Annex A control testing results
- Gap analysis against ISO requirements
- Risk assessment and treatment plan
- Evidence package for auditors
- Management review documentation
- Control effectiveness validation
- Continuous improvement recommendations
What we usually find
The issues this engagement surfaces most often. Yours will differ, but this is the shape of it.
Who this is for
Auditor-Ready Compliance Crosswalk
| Framework | Control Section | Testing Evidence & Report Deliverable |
|---|---|---|
| ISO/IEC 27001:2022 | Control A.8.8 & A.8.20 | Management of technical vulnerabilities and network security verification through independent technical assessments. |
| NIST Cybersecurity Framework | PR.AC, DE.CM, RS.AN | Technical testing verifying access controls, anomaly detection efficacy, and incident response mitigation capabilities. |
Findings are mapped to ISO 27001, ISO 27002, NIST CSF, CIS Controls, so the report drops into an audit package rather than needing to be translated first. If you need the readiness work behind one of those, that is a separate engagement.
Frequently Asked Questions
Direct answers on scoping, methodology, compliance validation, and deliverables.
Our ISO 27001 Driven Penetration Testing service combines deep manual testing with automated verification. We cover: ISO 27001 aligned security assessment, Annex A control testing results, Gap analysis against ISO requirements, Risk assessment and treatment plan, Evidence package for auditors. Every engagement includes reproducible proof-of-concept exploits, developer-ready remediation guidance, and a free retest.
Yes. Findings are directly mapped to ISO 27001, ISO 27002, NIST CSF, CIS Controls control requirements. The resulting report is auditor-ready and formatted for immediate submission to SOC 2 CPAs, PCI QSAs, and enterprise vendor risk assessment teams.
Yes. Every Lorikeet Security engagement includes free retesting within 30 to 60 days to validate that your remediation patches successfully resolve the identified vulnerabilities before your final report is issued.
Typical active testing turnaround is 2-3 weeks, with critical findings reported immediately via your Talon portal so your engineering team can begin remediation without waiting for the final PDF.
Pricing starts from $10,000. We scope the engagement in one call based on your environment's surface area, user roles, and complexity, providing a transparent, fixed-price quote with no hidden change orders.
