Certifications & Accreditations

Independent, third-party-verified evidence of methodology, quality, and competence — the foundation on which our regulated-industry clients place reliance.

Firm-Level Accreditations

TSE Class A — Penetration Testing Firm

Accredited by the Turkish Standards Institution (TSE) under TS 13638/T2, Certificate Number TSE-STF-065. The TSE Class A accreditation is the highest tier defined by the Turkish information security testing scheme, awarded only to firms whose methodology, quality assurance, governance, and personnel competence have been independently audited and demonstrated to meet rigorous criteria. Class A status is a prerequisite for participation in many Turkish public-sector penetration testing engagements.
