Santos Security Advisory tests, under realistic and clearly defined conditions, whether an unauthorised person could gain access to a site, building or particularly sensitive area.

Price on request

The effort depends on the site, approved scenarios, operating hours and required test depth. A transparent proposal follows a formal scoping discussion.
