Old-school penetration tests are slow and expensive, leaving you with thin reports and a big bill. We provide fast, affordable manual pentesting with clear, actionable reports delivered in under a week, so you can fix what matters and get back to business.

Why Your Small Business Needs Penetration Testing

It's easy to think your business is too small to be a target. But hackers love small businesses because they often have weaker security. A penetration test is like hiring an ethical hacker to find those weak spots before a real attacker does.

The numbers are clear. Small businesses are the target of nearly half of all cyberattacks. A single breach can be devastating, and many companies never recover. A pentest isn't just an expense; it's a smart investment in protecting your company's future.

A pentest is a key part of any comprehensive cybersecurity strategy. It shows you exactly where you're vulnerable so you can fix the problems. This builds trust with customers and partners who need to know their data is safe with you.

Our OSCP, CEH, and CREST certified pentesters find these weaknesses and deliver straightforward, actionable reports in under a week. No jargon, just clear steps to fix the problems. Find more ways to secure your company in our guide on cybersecurity tips for small businesses.

Choosing The Right Pentest For Your Business

Penetration tests are not one-size-fits-all. You don't want to pay for a test you don't need. The goal is to match the test to your business's real-world risks, ensuring you get maximum value without breaking the bank.

If you have a website with a customer login, a web application pentest is essential. This test looks for flaws that could let an attacker steal data or take over accounts. It's a must for any SaaS company or e-commerce site.

Does your software use an API to talk to other services? Then an API pentest is just as critical. Our ethical hackers will check these connections for weaknesses that could expose sensitive data. Choosing the right scope saves you money and focuses on your biggest risks.

This simple decision path shows how your compliance needs often point to a specific type of pentest.

As you can see, a compliance requirement usually means a specific pentest is the fastest way to get the evidence your auditor needs. For a deeper look at your options, check out our guide on the types of penetration testing.

Our Simple and Transparent Pentesting Process

Old-school pentesting is a pain. It's slow, confusing, and full of hidden fees. We do things differently. Our process is built to be fast, straightforward, and affordable from start to finish.

We've simplified everything into four clear steps. This makes getting a penetration testing for small business easy and predictable. You'll know exactly what to expect from day one.

1. Scope: We start with a quick chat to define exactly what needs testing. We keep the scope tight and accurate to give you an affordable price without any upselling.
2. Test: Our OSCP, CEH, and CREST certified ethical hackers get to work. They manually test your systems to find the tricky vulnerabilities that automated scanners miss.
3. Report: You get a detailed, easy-to-read report in under a week. We prioritize findings and give you clear, step-by-step instructions to fix every issue.
4. Retest: After your team applies the fixes, we perform a free retest. This confirms the vulnerabilities are gone and gives you proof that your systems are secure.

This isn't just about checking a box. It's about getting real security improvements that stop breaches before they happen. Learn more about how pentesting benefits small businesses and protects your bottom line.

Understanding Your Pentest Report And Fixing Issues

A pentest report is useless if you can't understand it. Our reports are designed to be a clear roadmap for improving your security, not a technical document that collects dust. We skip the jargon and get straight to what matters.

Your report starts with a simple summary of the big picture. Then we give you a prioritized list of our findings. You'll know exactly what to fix first and why it's important.

For every vulnerability we find, we provide clear, step-by-step instructions that your team can follow. This straightforward approach makes penetration testing for small business practical. You get an actionable plan, not a confusing mess of technical details.

Your report will sort vulnerabilities by severity to help you focus. Critical issues need to be fixed immediately, while low-risk items can be addressed later. This turns a long list of findings into a manageable checklist for your team.

After your team implements the fixes, we provide a free retest. We verify that each patch was successful and the security hole is closed. This final step gives you peace of mind and the clean report you need for auditors or clients. To see an example, fill out our contact form.
