Fortifying Nigeria’s Digital Growth with CREST-Standard Cybersecurity
Nigeria’s fast-growing digital economy has created endless opportunities from fintech innovation and smart energy systems to e-governance and online retail. Yet this same digital expansion has dramatically increased the nation’s exposure to cyberattacks.
Ransomware, phishing, insider threats, and targeted breaches are now frequent across industries, often causing downtime, data loss, and reputational damage.
To stay protected in this evolving environment, businesses are adopting CREST Accredited Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing (VAPT) services — the global benchmark for professional, ethical, and effective cybersecurity testing.
What CREST Accreditation Means for You
CREST (Council of Registered Ethical Security Testers) is an internationally recognized body that certifies cybersecurity providers for technical competence and ethical testing practices.
When you partner with a CREST-accredited organization like Cyberintelsys, you’re assured that every test, exploit, and report follows a globally accepted framework for accuracy, consistency, and integrity.
This means your systems are tested by qualified professionals — not automated tools alone — ensuring a true-to-life assessment of how your digital assets would hold up against real attackers.
How VAPT Strengthens Business Resilience
A Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Test (VAPT) doesn’t just identify weaknesses — it helps organizations understand how vulnerabilities can be exploited and what the impact could be.
By simulating cyberattacks under controlled conditions, Cyberintelsys helps Nigerian organizations uncover hidden flaws before threat actors do.
The outcome?
A stronger, smarter, and more proactive security posture.
Our CREST-Accredited Security Testing Services
At Cyberintelsys, we offer end-to-end VAPT services tailored for Nigeria’s digital landscape. Each engagement combines automated scanning, deep manual testing, and contextual business risk analysis — ensuring accuracy and actionable outcomes.
1. Infrastructure Security Assessment
We evaluate your IT infrastructure, including routers, firewalls, VPNs and servers, to identify security loopholes and weak configurations. Our experts simulate real-world scenarios such as privilege escalation, lateral movement and misconfiguration exploitation. You receive a prioritized list of vulnerabilities with detailed remediation recommendations that enhance system hardening.
2. Web & API Penetration Testing
Web applications and APIs are the heart of modern business operations but they’re also prime targets for hackers. We assess input validation, authentication, and logic handling mechanisms to detect risks like injection flaws, insecure APIs and business logic bypasses. Our approach blends automated and manual techniques to uncover complex vulnerabilities that scanners often miss.
3. Mobile Application Security Testing
As mobile banking, telehealth and e-commerce apps dominate the Nigerian market, ensuring their security is critical. Our team conducts advanced static, dynamic and runtime testing for Android and iOS apps, detecting insecure data storage, encryption weaknesses and backend API exposures. The result is a secure mobile ecosystem that protects both user data and brand integrity.
4. Cloud & Container Security Evaluation
Modern enterprises are moving workloads to AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud but cloud misconfigurations remain one of the biggest causes of breaches. Cyberintelsys examines access controls, storage permissions and identity management policies to prevent cloud exploitation. We also assess containerized environments like Kubernetes and Docker for privilege and network isolation flaws.
5. Wireless Network & Endpoint Security Testing
Our specialists perform advanced testing on Wi-Fi networks, routers, and endpoint devices to identify weak encryption, rogue access points and insecure network protocols. We validate your wireless infrastructure’s resilience to interception, sniffing and unauthorized access attempts. This ensures a secure perimeter for your employees, remote workers and IoT systems.
6. Source Code & Configuration Review
Beyond external testing, we perform secure code reviews to uncover logic flaws, insecure libraries, and misused functions within your applications. Our experts analyze source code in popular languages such as Java, Python, PHP and C# to identify issues early in the SDLC. This proactive approach reduces post-deployment risks and strengthens DevSecOps integration.
7. Social Engineering & Phishing Simulation
Technology alone can’t protect an organization people play a crucial role too. We conduct controlled social engineering exercises, including phishing simulations and physical intrusion tests, to assess human awareness and organizational readiness. The insights help improve cybersecurity training, incident response and overall resilience.
8. Advanced Red Team Operations
Our Red Team simulates full-spectrum attacks that mirror real-world adversaries from initial reconnaissance to data exfiltration. These controlled engagements test not only your defenses but also your detection, response, and recovery capabilities. The results empower your security team to respond faster and smarter in the face of real threats.
