The CREST process is designed to ensure that clients of CREST members receive a consistently high standard of service. CREST performs a risk assessment of applicant providers to ensure that the provider has the appropriate policies and procedures for delivering penetration testing services. CREST further confirms that qualified individuals with the appropriate skill and competence, and a working, current knowledge of the latest vulnerabilities and techniques will execute the penetration testing services. Finally, CREST assesses the provider’s ability to protect the confidentiality of the firm’s test data.
