Very helpful and great support from the start to the end

Credit Style have been using Citation Cyber now for over 5 years. During this time Credit Style and Citation Cyber have formed a close and trusting relationship due to their prompt, helpful and friendly service. Over this period Citation Cyber have carried out numerous projects, from External, Internal and Web Penetration testing to carrying out the testing for Credit Style to become Cyber Essentials Plus certified, most recently carrying out External Infrastructure Penetration Testing.

We were really appreciative of Citation Cyber's responsiveness to us as our penetration testing needed to be completed very quickly and were able to accommodate this. Communication from the team was really good and the report was comprehensive and easy to follow for us and our developers.

I have been dealing with Citation Cyber for around three years now and in all that time they have always struck me as being very professional, very knowledgeable, and always wanting to go that extra mile. I think the biggest recommendation I can give Citation Cyber is that I recommend them to colleagues within the industry.
