Pentest People & Bulletproof have moved to WorkNest Secure
If you landed here looking for Pentest People or Bulletproof, the brands were absorbed into WorkNest Secure in May 2026. Here is what happened, and what you might do next.
What happened
This page is factual only. Wolds Cyber has no commercial relationship with Pentest People, Bulletproof, or WorkNest. We are not commenting on the quality of any of these businesses, only describing the rebrand factually.
Pentest People and Bulletproof were both acquired and folded into WorkNest Secure, which launched publicly on 13 May 2026. WorkNest is a well-established HR and employment law group that built a cyber security division alongside its core offering.
The Pentest People and Bulletproof brand names are being retired. If you are searching for those names and landing on unfamiliar pages, or if email addresses or support portals have changed, the answer is that the brand has changed, the entity behind it is now WorkNest Secure. Their website is worknest.com/cyber-security (or check worknest.com directly for current links).

Wolds Cyber is a Yorkshire-based independent consultancy for SMBs in the 10 to 50 user range. We are not a like-for-like replacement for Pentest People's larger-enterprise penetration testing work, that is not our lane. But if you are a Yorkshire SMB looking for the following, we are worth a look:

Questions
What happened to Pentest People and Bulletproof?
Both brands were absorbed into WorkNest Secure, which launched on 13 May 2026. WorkNest is a broad HR and employment-law group that has been building a cyber security division. The Pentest People and Bulletproof brand names are being retired as part of the integration.
Is Wolds Cyber a replacement for Pentest People?
Not a direct replacement, Pentest People was known for larger-organisation penetration testing. Wolds Cyber focuses on Yorkshire SMBs (10 to 50 users) and on the security, compliance, and certification layer: CE/CE+ certification, managed endpoint security, and compliance subscriptions. If what you needed from Pentest People was CE certification, a security assessment, or a managed service, we are a relevant option.
