Announcement: Zoonou Awarded CREST Accreditation

Following a rigorous assessment of our business processes, data security and security testing methodologies, Zoonou is delighted to announce that we have been awarded accredited member status by CREST for our penetration testing services.

As a CREST member company, in addition to our ISO 27001 & ISO 9001 and Cyber Essentials certifications, it provides our clients with the confidence that our penetration testing services are delivered by industry experts to proven methodologies and demonstrable quality assurance processes. Mike Goodman, Head of Technical Services at Zoonou commented:

“We are thrilled to have been awarded membership with CREST. This validates the approach we have taken as a company to help our clients ensure their web applications are secure. CREST not only considers the way in which we carry out the testing, but our processes within the business to support the testing as well.

This, along with our recent ISO 9001 & ISO 27001 certifications, ensures that we are delivering our service to recognised industry standards. We look forward to further developing our penetration testing service and working with CREST to ensure we continue to deliver testing to the highest possible standards.”

CREST provides internationally recognised accreditations for organisations providing technical security services and professional level certifications for businesses providing vulnerability assessment, penetration testing, cyber incident response, threat intelligence and security operations centre (SOC) services.

“CREST is pleased to welcome Zoonou as an accredited member company” said Ian Glover, president of CREST, “Zoonou has been through a demanding assessment process that examined test methodologies, legal and regulatory requirements, data protection standards, logging and auditing, internal and external communications with stakeholders, as well as how test data security is maintained. Awarding Zoonou membership for its penetration testing services means that we are formally recognising that the company consistently delivers the highest professional security services standards to its customers.”

Nick Turton, Managing Director at Zoonou added:

“For Zoonou’s Technical Services team, achieving CREST accredited status is the culmination of many hours of dedication.
