Background

"Existing penetration testing services conducted within the financial services sector are well understood and utilised. While these services have provided a good level of assurance against traditional capability attacks, it is becoming increasingly clear that they do not provide assurance against more sophisticated attacks on critical assets. There are two main reasons for this. The first is that the financial services sector has resisted testing critical assets against simulated attacks because of the perceived associated risk. The second is that the penetration testing industry did not have sufficient access to current and specific threat information."
