Redscan accessible via G-Cloud 10

Penetration testing, threat detection and response specialist, has announced the availability of its services on G-Cloud 10 (launched this month), which is the latest iteration of the Government procurement platform for cloud-based services.


The Redscan services to be listed are its CREST-accredited Penetration Testing and IT Health Checks; as well as ThreatDetect MDR – a 24/7 Cyber Security Operations Centre-as-a-service for threat detection and incident response. Through these services, Redscan promises to bring its offensive approach to cybersecurity to the public sector in order to help organisations identify complex security risks, as well as detect and respond swiftly to breaches. It will also help Government organisations to bridge the skills gap during a global cyber security skills crisis.

“All organisations within the public sector are deeply concerned by cybersecurity threats. They need assurance that their systems are safe and secure, and that vital services are always protected,” said Gubi Singh, Chief Operating Officer at Redscan. “In the midst of a global cybersecurity skills crisis, in which the public sector can struggle to compete for the best talent, this is neigh impossible without bringing in outside expertise.

“No organisation can afford to sit back and wait for the worst to happen. Taking an offensive and proactive approach to security has become vital for protecting against today’s threats, since modern attackers have become so good at evading perimeter defences. The arrival of G-Cloud 10 coincides with increasingly devastating data breaches and the introduction of tighter regulations, such as the GDPR, and buyers may be searching for a more dynamic approach to cybersecurity threats.

“Redscan supplies the tools, expertise and high-quality service to make offensive security a reality, whether that’s penetration testing to detect hidden vulnerabilities, hunting for and investigating intrusions or coordinating swift and effective cyber incident response.”
