Level 5 Advanced Physical Penetration Testing
Operate at the highest level of physical security assessment and covert testing.
The Level 5 Advanced Physical Penetration Testing Course builds upon the skills and operational experience gained from the Level 4 Physical Penetration Testing Course. Highly practical and demanding, this course is intended for experienced penetration testers who have already undertaken successful real-world engagements.
Delivered through immersive, scenario-based exercises, the course develops the advanced capabilities required to conduct penetration testing operations against Critical National Infrastructure (CNI), defence establishments, government buildings, and other high-security facilities.
Delegates will learn advanced reconnaissance, planning, team leadership, and security defeat techniques before culminating in a live, multi-day team penetration test exercise conducted across both day and night operations.
