    THE PROBLEM

    Your attack surface grew. Your visibility didn't.

    We test across recon, web, API, cloud, identity and business-logic surfaces.

    Assets discoveredAssets testedUntestedQ1Q8
    01

    Bigger than you think.

    Cloud, SaaS, and AI tools spread faster than any team can inventory.

    02

    Changing every week.

    One config change or new integration can open a critical hole between assessments.

    03

    Public by default.

    Your exposure is already visible. The only question is who maps it first, you or an attacker.

    What We Find

    Our AI-augmented pen-test team drives continuous offensive coverage across recon, web, API, cloud, identity, and business-logic surfaces — and every finding is reviewed and validated by senior human pen-testers. Every finding manually validated. No filler.

    Recurring critical archetypes, anonymized.

    Filter by severity09 / 09 shown
    critical

    Anonymous data exfiltration

    Misconfigured access controls let unauthenticated visitors read entire customer and lead databases — names, emails, PII — straight from the API.

    Why it mattersOne forgotten endpoint becomes a regulator-reportable breach.

    critical

    Payment webhook forgery

    Payment-confirmation endpoints accepting unsigned callbacks, letting an attacker mark orders paid without ever paying — found across multiple payment gateways.

    Why it mattersDirect revenue loss, reconciled only when the fraud has already shipped.

    critical

    Phish-to-admin takeover chains

    Spoofable email + an exposed admin login + no rate limiting, chained into a no-credential path to full administrative control.

    Why it mattersA single phishing email gets the keys to the platform.

    high

    Identity monocultures

    A single stolen password unlocking email, remote-management, VPN, and remote-support tooling all at once — one key to the whole estate.

    Why it mattersCredential reuse collapses every boundary at once.

    high

    Leaked cloud & AI API keys

    Live cloud, AI, and service credentials exposed in source, error responses, and config — billable and abusable on discovery.

    Why it mattersSurprise five-figure bills and pivot points into production.

    high

    Cross-tenant exposure

    Multi-tenant platforms leaking one customer's data to another through broken isolation boundaries.

    Why it mattersA contract-breaking incident waiting on the next curious customer.

    high

    Email spoofing exposure

    Domains with no DMARC enforcement — trivially spoofable for brand-impersonation phishing against staff and customers.

    Why it mattersYour domain becomes the attacker's most trusted asset.

    medium

    Self-elevation & access-control flaws

    Ordinary users quietly promoting themselves to admin through under-protected profile and permission fields.

    Why it mattersInsider risk without needing an insider.

    high

    SSRF into cloud metadata

    Server-side request forgery in image fetchers and webhook callouts, weaponized to hit cloud metadata endpoints and mint temporary credentials for the host's IAM role.

    Why it mattersOne unvalidated URL field becomes a foothold inside your cloud account.

    How We Work

    Seven steps, no shortcuts.

    1. 01

      Plan

      Scope the pen test and map to MITRE ATT&CK.

      We agree pen-test scope, rules of engagement, and success criteria, then map every objective to MITRE ATT&CK so coverage is measurable from day one.

    2. 02

      Recon

      OSINT + active surface inventory.

      Passive OSINT and active discovery build a complete inventory of your external attack surface — domains, subdomains, exposed services, leaked credentials, and third-party footprints.

    3. 03

      Hunt

      Our AI-augmented pen-test team hunts web, API, cloud, identity, and business-logic surfaces in parallel.

      Our AI-augmented pen-test team hunts in parallel across web, API, cloud, identity, and business-logic surfaces — covering ground a traditional pen-test team would have to serialize across weeks.

    4. 04

      Validate

      Human experts confirm every finding with a working proof-of-concept.

      Nothing reaches your report without a working proof-of-concept reviewed by a human pen-tester. Scanner noise, theoretical risks, and unreachable bugs are eliminated before they ever land on your desk.

    5. 05

      Chain

      Isolated bugs linked into real attack paths with composite risk scores.

      Individual findings are stitched into the attack paths an actual adversary would walk, with composite risk scores reflecting real-world exploitability — not CVSS in a vacuum.

    6. 06

      Detect

      We hand blue teams the Sigma rules to catch each technique.

      Each validated technique ships with a Sigma rule your blue team can drop into their SIEM, turning every pen-test finding into durable detection coverage.

    7. 07

      Report

      Board-ready pen-test report: severity badges, attack chains, prioritized roadmap.

      A board-ready pen-test report with executive narrative, severity badges, attack-chain diagrams, evidence, fix-and-verify steps, and an AI-actionable companion file for your engineers.

    Testing hours are not compressed. The waiting is removed.

    WHY NOW

    The attackers got AI. Your annual pen test didn't.

    Offensive AI collapsed the time from exposed to exploited, so a once-a-year snapshot leaves you blind for the other 364 days.

    FAQ

    Frequently asked.

    Pen testing 101

    A penetration test is a controlled, authorized simulated cyberattack on your systems — run by ethical hackers who try to break in the way a real attacker would, then hand you proof of exactly what worked and how to fix it.

    Defensive security builds and watches the walls: firewalls, monitoring, patching, training. Offensive security attacks those walls on purpose to see whether they hold. It is entirely legal because it is done under a signed contract with written authorization from you, against systems you own or control, inside agreed dates and limits. Without that authorization it would simply be hacking — the paperwork is what makes it a service.

    A scanner is an automated tool that lists things that might be wrong. A pen test is people who prove what actually is wrong. Scanners produce hundreds of maybes with no business context and a lot of false alarms; a pen test chains real weaknesses together into a working attack and tells you what an intruder could actually reach. Most compliance frameworks require the second and accept the first only as a supplement.

    A bug bounty is open-ended and crowd-sourced: anyone can report anything, at any time, and you pay per finding — great for continuous coverage, poor for a deadline or an auditor. A red team is a stealth exercise that tests whether your defenders notice an attack in progress; it deliberately stays quiet and does not aim for full coverage. A pen test sits between them: fixed scope, fixed window, full coverage of the agreed surface, and one report you can hand to a customer, an auditor, or an insurer.

    Engagements

    First findings within 72 hours of kickoff, every engagement. Focused 5 to 7 business days. Standard 7 to 10 business days. Extended 2 to 4 weeks. We confirm a hard window during scoping.

    Black-box mirrors an external attacker with no inside knowledge. Gray-box gives us limited credentials so we cover more ground in less time — the default for SaaS and SOC 2 work. White-box adds source and architecture access for the deepest coverage. We'll recommend the right mode based on your goals.

    We agree rules of engagement up front — testing windows, rate limits, off-limits actions, and an emergency contact. Destructive techniques are run in lab. Every engagement is engineered to avoid production disruption.

    Findings & Reports

    Executive summary, severity-ranked findings with working proof-of-concept, attack-chain diagrams, evidence, fix-and-verify steps, and an AI-actionable companion file your engineers can hand to their coding agent. See how the same report maps to SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI, or cyber-insurance evidence on our compliance pages.

    Scanners flag potential issues; pen tests prove what's actually exploitable. Our AI-augmented pen-test team accelerates discovery, but every finding is validated, chained, and reviewed by a human pen-tester before it reaches you.

    Yes. Every engagement includes a free retest of remediated findings within 60 days. You get an updated report you can hand to auditors, customers, or your insurer.

    Nonprofits & Full GRC

    Yes — every quarter we reserve five engagement slots for qualified 501(c)(3) organizations. See our Giving Back page to apply.
