Physical Intrusion

Our specialists try – within clear prior agreements – to gain unauthorized access to your location. This tests whether technical measures such as locks and alarms work, and how alert your employees are. Physical access is often the fastest way to a digital data breach.

A USB stick in the parking lot, a forgotten badge at the coffee machine, or a friendly 'new colleague' who just needs to print something: physical security goes far beyond just locks and cameras.

β€œA back door left open during a smoke break is not a theoretical risk. It is an open invitation. We show how that invitation can end with spy equipment in your meeting room – and what you need to prevent it.”

Our methodology

1. Reconnaissance

We start by quietly observing your location, employees, and procedures. We look at suppliers, smoking areas, and access points.

2. Infiltration

We test scenarios such as tailgating, using fake badges, social engineering, and technical bypasses.

3. Escalation

Once inside, we investigate what is possible: access to server rooms, placing equipment, and network access.

4. Documentation

We document everything with photos, timestamps, and clear descriptions as the basis for your improvement plan.

Physical = Digital

The boundary between physical and digital security is blurring. An attacker with physical access can:

  • Install keyloggers on workstations
  • Compromise or take over network equipment
  • Steal backup tapes or hard drives
  • Place rogue access points
  • Photograph sensitive documents
  • Manipulate badge readers

Warning

Physical security tests can be confronting. Employees may be shocked to see how easily someone can get in. That is why we ensure clear communication afterwards and – if desired – a short training or awareness session. This turns shock into improvement.
