Why Work With a Local Firm
Plenty of firms sell penetration testing into Scotland from elsewhere. We are based here. That means in-person scoping and debrief meetings when you want them, on-site internal testing without travel premiums and a senior consultant who understands the local landscape, from financial services and legal firms in Edinburgh to universities and public sector organisations across Scotland. JAG Secure is a member of ScotlandIS and the Edinburgh Chamber of Commerce and was named a finalist at the Scottish Cyber Awards 2026.
