See exactly where attackers could get in

No. We use controlled testing methods with defined rules of engagement. Before we start, we agree on testing boundaries, timing windows, and emergency contacts. Our testers know how to test aggressively without causing outages. We've never disrupted a client's production systems.

A vulnerability scan (like SeguriScan) automatically checks for known issues — it's fast, runs weekly, and covers a broad surface. A penetration test goes deeper: human experts attempt to actually exploit vulnerabilities, chain them together, test business logic, and find issues that automated tools miss. Think of scanning as a health monitoring device; a pentest is a full medical examination.

Our team holds OSCP (Offensive Security Certified Professional), CEH (Certified Ethical Hacker), and follows OWASP Testing Guide methodology. We operate under the Penetration Testing Execution Standard (PTES) and align findings with the MITRE ATT&CK framework.

Yes. Every engagement includes an attestation letter confirming the penetration test was performed by qualified professionals. Our reports provide technical evidence for the security testing requirements of NIS2, GDPR Article 32, SOC 2 CC7.1, PCI DSS Requirement 11.3, and ISO 27001 Annex A.

We can typically begin within 48 hours of the scoping call. Most external pentests complete in 1–2 weeks. Web application tests take 1–2 weeks depending on complexity. Red team assessments run 2–4 weeks. Rush engagements are available.

For external pentests — no. We test from the outside, just like a real attacker. For web application tests, we typically need test accounts at different permission levels. For red teaming — we start with zero access and see how far we get. We discuss exact requirements during the scoping call.

NIS2, GDPR, SOC 2, and PCI DSS all require regular security testing — and auditors distinguish between automated scanning and expert-led penetration testing. A scanner finds known vulnerabilities; a pentest proves whether those vulnerabilities (and the ones scanners miss) can actually be exploited. Most compliance frameworks require both.

Yes, and it's becoming the standard. Enterprise clients increasingly require third-party pentest reports from vendors before signing contracts. Having a recent, professional report ready accelerates your sales cycle and proves you take security as seriously as your client does.

We sign an NDA before every engagement. All findings, credentials, and data accessed during testing are encrypted in transit and at rest. Within 30 days of report delivery, all test data is securely destroyed. We can provide a data destruction certificate on request. Our process complies with GDPR data handling requirements.
