Types of Pentesting

Table of contents

Are you tired of slow, expensive pentesting firms that find nothing? Traditional pentests take months and cost a fortune, delaying your compliance audits and leaving you vulnerable. We provide affordable, manual penetration tests from certified experts, with a comprehensive report in your hands in one week.

Network Penetration Testing Finds Infrastructure Flaws

Network pentesting is like checking all the doors and windows on your company's network. Our certified ethical hackers (OSCP, CEH, CREST) try to break into your servers, firewalls, and routers to find security holes. We test from the outside and inside to find weak passwords or outdated systems before a real attacker does.

This is the foundation of good security. If an attacker gets into your network, all your data and applications are at risk. We find these critical issues fast so you can fix them and protect your business.

Web Application Pentesting Secures Your Software

Web application pentesting is a focused attack on your websites and software. Think of it as a security check for your online store or customer portal to ensure hackers can't steal data. Our OSCP, CEH, and CREST certified testers look for common flaws like SQL injection that automated tools miss.

Your web apps are a prime target for attackers trying to access sensitive customer information. We deliver a detailed report in one week, so your developers can fix the problems fast, keeping your data safe and your business running smoothly.

Social Engineering Pentesting Tests Your People

Social engineering tests your biggest security asset and weakness: your employees. It simulates real-world phishing attacks to see if your team can be tricked into giving away passwords or access. It's one of the most effective types of penetration testing because it bypasses technology to target human behavior.

Our certified professionals use realistic phishing emails and phone calls to test your team's security awareness. A great firewall doesn't help if an employee clicks a malicious link. We give you an actionable report in under a week with recommendations to strengthen your human defenses through better security awareness training programs.

Wireless Network Pentesting Secures Your Wi-Fi

Wireless pentesting checks for security flaws in your Wi-Fi networks. An insecure wireless network is an open door for an attacker to walk right into your internal systems. Our certified testers (OSCP, CEH, CREST) try to crack your Wi-Fi passwords and exploit weak access points.

This is crucial for any business offering Wi-Fi to employees or guests. A single vulnerability could give an attacker the same access as a trusted employee. Our affordable manual pentests deliver a report in just one week, so you can lock down your wireless environment fast.

Physical Penetration Testing Checks Your Building Security

Physical pentesting tests the security of your actual buildings and server rooms. It's a real-world test where our experts try to bypass locks, cameras, and security guards. If an attacker can physically access your servers, your digital security controls become useless.

Our certified team simulates a real break-in to find weak spots in your physical defenses. We provide a clear, actionable report within a week, showing you exactly how we got in. This helps you fix issues quickly and protect your most critical on-site assets.

Cloud Infrastructure Pentesting Secures AWS and Azure

Cloud pentesting focuses on security issues in your AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud environments. A single misconfiguration in the cloud can expose all your company's sensitive data to the internet. It's your responsibility to secure your cloud setup, and this test shows you how.

Our OSCP and CEH certified testers look for common cloud mistakes like public S3 buckets or weak access policies. We find these critical vulnerabilities and deliver a report in one week, helping you secure your cloud assets without the high costs of traditional firms.

Mobile Application Pentesting Protects Your App

Mobile app pentesting finds security holes in your iOS and Android applications. Your mobile app is a direct gateway to your customer's data, and a single flaw can lead to a serious breach. Our OSCP, CEH, and CREST certified testers analyze your app for issues like insecure data storage that automated tools can't find.

We act like real hackers trying to steal user information through your app. Our affordable manual pentests deliver a detailed report in a week, allowing your developers to patch issues fast. This protects your users, your data, and your brand's reputation.

Database Penetration Testing Protects Your Data

Database pentesting is a deep dive into the security of your databases like SQL Server or Oracle. This is where your most valuable information lives, including customer data and financial records. Our certified testers (OSCP, CEH, CREST) simulate attacks to see if your data can be stolen or destroyed.

We identify serious issues like SQL injection flaws or weak credentials that could lead to a catastrophic data breach. We provide a comprehensive report in just one week, giving you the actionable steps needed to secure your data without the slow, expensive process of other firms.

API Penetration Testing Secures Your Endpoints

API pentesting focuses on the security of your Application Programming Interfaces (APIs). APIs connect your software and data, and a single insecure endpoint can expose your entire system. Our certified testers (OSCP, CEH, CREST) attack your APIs to find flaws in authentication and authorization.

Hackers love to target APIs because they are a direct path to sensitive data. A vulnerability here could allow an attacker to bypass your other security controls entirely. We deliver a detailed report on your API security in just one week, so your team can fix the issues fast.

Red Team Engagements Simulate Real-World Attacks

A Red Team engagement is the ultimate security test. Instead of just looking for vulnerabilities, we simulate a full-scale attack from a real adversary. Our certified OSCP, CEH, and CREST testers use multiple methods like social engineering and network hacking to achieve a specific goal, like stealing your data.

This shows you not just what is vulnerable, but what a real attacker can accomplish. It's the best way to test your security team's ability to detect and respond to a live threat. Our affordable approach gives you the benefit of a Red Team exercise without the massive price tag and long timeline.
