What to do when you need an Affordable Manual Pentest ASAP?

When you need a penetration test immediately, waiting weeks isn't always an option. Neither is paying double for "rush service." Maybe your SOC 2 audit is next week, or a client won't sign until they see your security assessment. At Affordable Pentesting, we deliver quality penetration testing services fast, without the premium pricing.

Need Urgent Penetration Testing Services?

Your SOC 2 audit starts Monday and you just realized you need penetration testing documentation. A potential enterprise client requires proof of security testing before they'll move forward. You've patched a critical vulnerability and need validation that it's actually fixed.

These scenarios happen more often than you'd think. We see urgent requests daily from companies facing:

  • SOC 2 Type 1 or Type 2 audit deadlines
  • Client security questionnaires requiring pentest results
  • M&A due diligence requirements
  • Post-incident security validation
  • HIPAA compliance deadlines
  • Surprise audit notifications
  • Insurance renewal requirements
  • Investor due diligence processes

The reality is that security requirements can catch teams off guard. You're focused on building your product, serving customers, and growing your business. Then suddenly you need penetration testing documentation yesterday.

Why Traditional Penetration Testing Companies Can't Deliver ASAP Service

Most penetration testing firms make urgent requests expensive and complicated. Their senior testers are booked months out. Their scoping process alone takes two weeks. When they can squeeze you in, expect to pay 50% to 100% premium fees on top of their already high prices.

We've seen quotes from traditional firms charging $12,000 for a standard penetration test, then demanding another $5,000 for "expedited service." They require multiple meetings just to define scope. They need complex statements of work reviewed by legal teams. By the time they're ready to start testing, you've already missed your deadline.

Even worse, many firms won't even return your call for days when you mention urgent timelines. They're simply not structured to handle fast turnarounds.

Every urgent penetration test gets the same quality and attention as our standard engagements. The only difference is we work faster and more efficiently.

Real Examples of ASAP Penetration Testing Success

SaaS startup needed SOC 2 penetration testing in 4 days: Their auditor surprised them with a penetration testing requirement. Testing started within 24 hours, provided daily updates, and delivered SOC 2-ready documentation that satisfied their auditor. Total cost was $3,500 compared to $7,000 quoted elsewhere.

Healthcare tech company required testing for enterprise client: A prospect needed penetration testing results before signing a contract. The test on the application and infrastructure was completed in 72 hours, helping them close the deal.

Fintech needed post-incident validation immediately: After a breach they needed third-party validation for their board and regulators. Testing started the same day, fixes were confirmed, and identified two related issues they could address before their board meeting.

Compare that to traditional firms charging $25,000 to $50,000 for standard testing, plus 100% rush fees for urgent delivery. We consistently deliver better results, faster turnaround, and lower prices.
