Penetration Testing & IT Security · Specialists in Attacks No SIEM Will Ever Catch

Think like an Attacker,
Act as a Partner

Your organisation has vulnerabilities you don't know about. Attackers will find them anyway — through technology, deception, and the unlocked door to your server room. We find them first: with tailored penetration tests, clear recommendations, and a focus on physical pentesting, social engineering & OT/ICS.

Penetration Test Modules: Our Services

From physical security to Active Directory – every module can be booked individually or combined into a comprehensive security assessment.

Physical Pentesting

We assess the physical security of your company locations – from access control to locks and alarm systems. Through simulated break-in attempts, we uncover vulnerabilities before real attackers do.

Learn more

Social Engineering

Technology is only as strong as the people operating it. We test your organisation with targeted deception attempts – such as phishing, vishing, or personal contact – and show how resilient your security culture really is.

Learn more

Infrastructure Pentest

We systematically analyse your internal or external IT infrastructure for vulnerabilities. This includes networks, servers, firewalls, and more – comprehensively, securely, and fully documented.

Learn more

Web App Pentest

Web applications are common targets – we thoroughly test your apps for security flaws like XSS, SQL injection, or access control weaknesses. Our approach follows established standards such as OWASP Top 10.

Learn more

Reconnaissance / OSINT

You often reveal more about yourself than you think. We use publicly available information to build a realistic attack profile – showing you what potential attackers already know about you.

Learn more

Active Directory Pentest

We analyse your Windows domain structure with a focus on permissions, group policies, and possible privilege escalations. The goal is to uncover typical attack paths in AD environments before they can be exploited.

Learn more

AI & LLM Security

AI systems are increasingly integrated into business processes, but they also introduce new attack vectors. We test your AI applications for vulnerabilities such as prompt injection, data leakage, or model manipulation – ensuring your AI is secure against emerging threats.

Learn more

OT / ICS Pentest

Industrial control systems and OT networks are increasingly connected – and increasingly at risk. We assess your SCADA systems, PLCs and OT infrastructure for vulnerabilities without disrupting ongoing operations.

Custom Pentest

Nothing suitable here? No problem – we offer tailored security analyses to meet your specific requirements. Whether specialised technologies, hybrid environments, or unusual scenarios: we develop a custom testing concept that fits your organisation perfectly.

Customer Reviews

What our customers say

★★★★★
(Translated from German) Our collaboration with Florian Schüssler has been exceptionally professional and trustworthy from the very beginning. He has repeatedly carried out extensive penetration tests for Kreiskliniken Reutlingen, identifying not only technical vulnerabilities but also communicating them clearly, comprehensibly, and in a practice-oriented way.
I'd particularly like to highlight his ability to see security as more than just an audit assignment. Florian was available to us as a competent point of contact at all times, answered questions quickly and thoroughly, and supported us in prioritizing and implementing appropriate measures. His recommendations are consistently pragmatic, solution-oriented, and tailored to our organization's specific needs. Especially in a hospital environment, where information security and availability are equally critical, this combination of technical excellence, reliability, and collaborative advisory support is invaluable.
We can recommend Florian Schüssler and AccessGranted without reservation and look forward to continuing our collaboration.

PENTEST PROCESS

A commissioned penetration test usually proceeds as follows:

01

Scoping & Target Definition

During an initial meeting, scope, goals, conditions, and technical details of the planned pentest are agreed upon.

02

Offer & Commissioning

Based on the defined scoping, an individual offer is created. After commissioning, project planning begins.

03

Kick-off & Preparation

A kick-off meeting serves to finalise contacts, communication channels, schedule, and any technical prerequisites.

04

Execution of the Pentest

Execution takes place according to the agreed scope – considering the defined systems, scenarios, and any agreed limitations.

05

Customer Communication during Testing

During the testing phase, regular coordination takes place, e.g. for critical findings, questions, or to clarify technical details together.

06

Report & Results Presentation

After completion of the test, a detailed report is prepared. Optionally, a results presentation takes place in a closing meeting.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions about Penetration Testing

Costs depend on the scope, complexity of your systems, and chosen test depth. After a free initial consultation you receive a transparent fixed-price offer – no hidden costs. For guidance: a web app pentest typically starts from €2,500, a full physical assessment from €3,500. For combined scope packages (e.g. infrastructure + AD + social engineering) we create individual offers – often cheaper than booking separately.
Depending on the module and scope, the actual testing takes between one and five working days. We communicate critical findings during the test – you are never in the dark. You receive the full final report within five working days of test completion. The entire process from initial consultation to final presentation typically takes two to four weeks. Accelerated timelines are available on request.
Yes. The NIS2 directive requires affected organisations to regularly review their security measures – penetration tests are a central and authority-recognised instrument for this. Our structured, risk-prioritised reports provide the evidence you need for internal and external audits, and help map findings to the NIS2 requirements catalogue.
Absolutely. Before testing begins, we jointly define clear scope boundaries, exclusion zones, and no-go systems. Every activity is fully logged. If unexpected impacts occur, we stop immediately and notify your contact in real time. In well over 99% of all tests there were no operational disruptions whatsoever.
A vulnerability scan is an automated tool that identifies known weaknesses from signatures. A penetration test goes much further: our experts think and act like real attackers, chain multiple vulnerabilities together, and test business logic as well as physical access. The result is not a generated CVE report, but a realistic picture of your actual security posture.
Yes. We conduct pentests remotely and on-site across Europe. Remote tests (web app, infrastructure, AD) are location-independent. For physical assessments and social engineering we travel to your site – including outside Germany. Simply let us know your location and we will find a solution.
