- How the planning service works
-
To deliver threat-intelligence-led physical penetration tests, there is a requirement for penetration testing organisations to use realistic threat intelligence. The threat data and OSINT is used to tailor a physical testing assessment in line with real-world physical threats and attacks that an organisation/department faces. As a consequence, this provides the closest simulation of physical threats that a penetration testing organisation can deliver to socially engineer their way past physical security measures e.g. fake ID pass, tailgating, other equivalent activity to gain access to secure areas. Nettitude delivers both threat intelligence and physical penetration testing services.
These assessments are designed to mirror real life physical attack scenarios (covering 3-5 realistic scenarios), with them being agreed with a department and the CPNI/GSRT and further consistent with online and on-site hostile reconnaissance and TI. The length of time needed will depend on the level of security across a particular department.
The ability to customise the physical testing approach, as well as the use of bespoke scenarios, reflects the real-world threats faced by an organisation/department. This increases significantly the value of this type of testing/assessment.

Fighting climate change
Net-zero is no longer a compromise. Our commitment is to be a net-zero business by 2030, against all scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions as quickly as possible. As a service provider, we will also help our clients to fight climate change. Whether reporting energy and water usage, measuring waste reduction, or managing product lifecycle, our commitment is to support our customers to work towards any and every environmental goal. Our goal is to help clients to bring credibility to their assertions, helping them to demonstrate compliance with international standards, regulations and commitments. We will combine deep environmental expertise and rigorous methodology to verify all data and information an organisation tracks or publishes. We will certify our customers systems and processes against global standards, giving them the confidence that best practices are being implemented that maximise every opportunity to improve performance. This includes but is not limited to: • Supporting our customers with their ISO 14064 greenhouse gas (GHG) validation • Supporting our customers to verify their systems and processes against global standards • Supporting our customers to transition to sustainable, low carbon power generation. • Supporting our customers to transition from waste to energy, wind, tidal, nuclear to renewable capacity, hydrogen production, storage and distribution • Supporting our customers verify their water usage, • Supporting our customers verify their waste reduction • Supporting our customers verify their or product lifecycle • Supporting our customers to look beyond compliance, examining the resulting data and suggesting actions that put them in control of the areas that matter most to their business.Covid-19 recovery
LRQA Nettitude actively contributes to the global recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic by endorsing and supporting vaccination initiatives. As an organisation grounded in science and evidence, we acknowledge the crucial role of vaccination and regular testing in safeguarding individuals and reinstating societal normalcy. While we respect individual choices regarding vaccination, it is anticipated that various authorities, clients, and travel providers may necessitate COVID-19 vaccination for entry or proof of a formal exception. Our commitment extends to supporting colleagues who choose to get vaccinated. LRQA Nettitude pledges to assist those receiving government-approved or World Health Organization-recognised COVID-19 vaccinations. In instances where an approved vaccine is not accessible through public or private healthcare providers, we will reimburse colleagues for the cost of an approved vaccination. Additionally, reasonable paid time off will be provided to facilitate vaccination for colleagues and their families. Respecting privacy, LRQA Nettitude will only inquire about a colleague's vaccine status when there is a legitimate business need, such as travel or working in high-risk environments. Colleagues' vaccine information will be stored securely for a defined period, in compliance with local data privacy legislation, and disclosed only with explicit consent. Recognising the ongoing importance of safety measures post-vaccination, LRQA Nettitude acknowledges that vaccination programs do not eliminate COVID-19 risk entirely. We commit to adhering to good practices and local legal requirements, acknowledging that certain safety measures will likely persist beyond the vaccination program. This comprehensive approach underscores LRQA Nettitude's dedication to supporting recovery and ensuring the well-being of our colleagues and the broader community.Tackling economic inequality
We believe that every person deserves the right to work with dignity. Through our corporate social responsibility compliance, we help our clients discover and understand risks within their workplace and supply chain in order to enhance economic equality. Transparency is the fundamental building block to understanding risk. Without transparency, it is difficult for an audit to report on risk exposure associated with wage underpayment, excessive working hours, child labour, unauthorized subcontractors, compliance to social insurance, harassment, and prison labour, to name a few. Supplier transparency is part of our DNA. We will continually develop innovative solutions that uncover and manage risk from a social perspective. EiQ is our supply chain data analytics platform, to create predictive models to assess the likelihood of unauthorized subcontracting, human trafficking, and labour unrest, to name a few. We are innovators and thought partners. This includes but is not limited to creating better working conditions and tackling inequality for the following areas: • Wage underpayment • Excessive working hours • Child labour • Unauthorized subcontractors • Compliance to social insurance • Harassment • Prison labourEqual opportunity
We believe that our responsibility as an employer, supplier, and customer is to treat people with respect, empathy, and kindness – to ensure people have the support they need to thrive and be at their best. Our promise is to support our people and every stakeholder that we work and interact with. We provide progressive advice and solutions for the following areas: • Fair and equal pay across gender, race, age, and disability • Fair and safe working hours • The restructuring of labour to protect children In addition to this, LRQA is committed to support young people from disadvantaged backgrounds to achieve their greatest potential. In 2022 we will launch “The Brightest Future”. The Brightest Future is LRQA’s philanthropic foundation that supports young people from disadvantaged backgrounds to build the brightest future for themselves, their community, and the planet With a focus on young people from disadvantaged backgrounds, we will support thousands of young people to receive high-quality education over the next seven years. Delivered by our employees in partnership with leading grassroot educational charities, our vision is to inspire young people to find their mighty purpose, curiosity, and courage to be part of building a better future for themselves, their community, and the planet.Wellbeing
