Penetration Testing Perth
Core Sentinel delivers senior-led penetration testing to Perth and Western Australian organisations — remote-first, on-site when the work requires it. We're Sydney-based and say so plainly: no phantom Perth branch. Every test is performed by a senior tester holding OSCE and OSCP, with 20+ years of hands-on experience and 30+ professional certifications — manual exploitation, never automated scan-and-send.

Penetration testing services for Perth and WA
Perth organisations get our full range of penetration testing services: web application and API testing, external infrastructure, internal and Active Directory assessments, mobile applications and wireless. Every engagement is quoted as a fixed price from your scope, and ends with a prioritised, evidence-backed report, a free remediation retest to prove your fixes hold, and a letter of attestation for clients, partners and auditors.

Built for WA's resources and remote-operations economy
Perth is the corporate home of much of Australia's mining, energy and resources sector, and that shapes the attack surface we test: head-office networks tied to distant sites through remote-access gateways, VPNs and identity systems, and the web platforms around them. We test that corporate layer the way a real attacker would: perimeter in, assumed internal foothold out. For critical-infrastructure operators with SOCI Act obligations, we map findings to the controls those obligations reference.
Remote-first delivery — and the timezone works for you
Most testing runs remotely — it mirrors real attackers and keeps your fixed price on testing time, not flights. Wireless testing is always performed on-site at your Perth premises. For internal testing, we ship a pre-configured VPN implant device to your office, work from a jump host you provide, or attend on-site. The two-to-three-hour gap between Sydney and Perth works in your favour: our working day begins before Perth business hours, so change-sensitive testing runs in your early-morning quiet window — no night shifts required.
Compliance-driven testing: SOCI, CPS 234, ISO 27001 and more
If a framework is behind your request, we scope and report against it — the Essential Eight, ISO 27001, SOC 2, APRA CPS 234, PCI DSS, IRAP, the SOCI Act and ST4S. Some make testing explicit: PCI DSS 11.4 requires penetration testing at least annually for in-scope entities, and APRA CPS 234 requires regulated entities to test the effectiveness of their information-security controls. Framework-by-framework detail: our guide to penetration testing for Australian compliance.
Frequently asked questions
How much does a penetration test cost in Perth?
Every engagement is fixed-price, quoted up front from your scope — the applications, IP ranges, user roles and depth of testing involved. You get a firm number before testing starts, and the free remediation retest is included.
Do you have a Perth office?
No — and we won't pretend otherwise. Core Sentinel is based at Governor Phillip Tower, 1 Farrer Place, Sydney NSW 2000, and works Australia-wide: most testing is remote, wireless is done on-site at your Perth premises, and internal testing runs via a VPN implant device we ship to your office, a jump host you provide, or on-site.
Does the time difference with Sydney cause problems?
The opposite. Perth sits two to three hours behind Sydney, so our working day covers your early-morning low-traffic window — and every testing window is agreed in the scope before anything starts.
