Penetration testing
Testing run from a plan written for your system, briefed to your stakeholders before anything is touched. Scanners are the floor of the work, not the work.

01
Plan
We build an assessment plan for the system or environment in front of us — surfaces, roles, trust boundaries, data flows — and brief it to your stakeholders before testing opens.
-
02
Scope
Scope is fully defined in writing before the engagement starts: targets, windows, exclusions, escalation paths, and the evidence that has to be captured along the way.
-
03
Test
Authenticated multi-role testing to depth across everything in scope. Chained authorization failures and business-logic abuse, not a scanner profile pointed at a hostname.
-
04
Report
Every chain documented end to end, risk written against your environment, and the artifacts your authorizing body expects — packaged, not improvised at the end.
Beyond the scanner pass
A plan for your system, not a profile run against it
An industry scanner reports what it recognizes. It does not know which of your roles can reach which record, what your API does with a replayed token, or which finding is a foothold and which is noise. Running one and calling the system assessed is how estates stay breachable while the report stays clean.
So the engagement starts with an assessment plan generated for the system or organization environment in scope: the surfaces that exist, the roles that use them, the boundaries between them, and the business logic that actually carries the risk. That plan is briefed to your stakeholders before testing begins, so the people who own the system agree on what holistic evaluation means for it — and can say what we have missed while there is still time to add it.
Current TTPs, current tooling
The techniques tested are the ones being used
Operators track the MITRE ATT&CK updates as they land, and the breach reporting in the sectors our clients work in — what actually got someone this quarter, in your industry, is a better test plan input than a control catalogue.
Tooling is chosen per engagement and per surface. Web application, network, mobile, cloud and IoT work each have their own moving toolchain, and operators stay current on all of them rather than inheriting the kit from last year because it is what the template says.
What lands
Every engagement closes with the same artifacts, in your hands and in writing.
-
Vulnerability report
Every finding with reproduction steps, evidence, and a fix an engineer can action.
-
Complete kill chain documentation
Each chain from initial access to impact, step by step, with the artifacts captured at every stage.
-
Contextualized risk & impact
Severity written against your environment, your data and your users — not a raw score copied out of a database.
-
Authorizing-body artifacts
Evidence packaged for the reporting requirements you answer to: FedRAMP, DoD, DHS, or your own audit trail.

Scope calls are 30 minutes with the operator who would run the test, not a salesperson.
