Offensive · Penetration Testing
Penetration testing that ends in fixes, not a PDF.
Senior testers attack your applications, APIs and infrastructure the way a real adversary would, then stay with your engineers until every finding is verified fixed.
- Typical length
- 1–3 weeks
- Retest
- Included
- Standards
- OWASP WSTG, ASVS, API Top 10, PTES, NIST SP 800-115
Simulated environment, real workflow.
Scope
What we cover.
Pick what matters for this engagement. We help you scope it in the first call.
Web applications
Authentication, session handling, access control, injection and business-logic abuse.
APIs
REST, GraphQL and gRPC: broken object-level auth, mass assignment, rate limits and data exposure.
Mobile apps
iOS and Android binaries, local storage, certificate pinning and the APIs behind them.
External network
Internet-facing hosts, VPNs and edge devices, tested from an attacker's starting point.
Internal network
Assumed-breach testing: lateral movement, Active Directory paths and privilege escalation.
Cloud
AWS, Azure and GCP: IAM paths, exposed storage, metadata abuse and tenant isolation.
Methodology
How the engagement runs.
- 01
Scope
We agree targets, test windows, rules of engagement and who to call if something breaks.
Output: Rules of engagement
- 02
Map
Automated discovery plus manual review builds a full picture of the attack surface.
Output: Attack-surface map
- 03
Exploit
Testers chain weaknesses to prove real impact, and flag criticals to you the same day.
Output: Critical flagged same day
- 04
Report
Every finding has reproduction steps, business impact and a specific fix.
Output: Report v1
- 05
Retest
We verify each fix and issue an updated report and attestation letter.
Output: Attestation letter
Findings are written while we test.
Criticals reach you the same day with evidence and a fix, not three weeks later in a PDF.
Simulated environment, real workflow.
Engagement plan
Nine weeks, with the fix window built in.
Testing ends in week 5 and the report lands in week 6, but the engagement doesn't. Your team gets two weeks to fix, then we retest every finding and reissue the report.

After the report
Criticals close first, then the backlog.
Findings arrive ranked, with a fix your engineers can apply. The target: every critical closed within two sprints, then the backlog burns down sprint by sprint.
- Critical
- High
- Medium
- Low
| Group | Critical | High | Medium | Low | Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| S1 | 4 | 9 | 14 | 11 | 38 |
| S2 | 2 | 7 | 12 | 10 | 31 |
| S3 | 1 | 4 | 9 | 9 | 23 |
| S4 | 0 | 3 | 6 | 7 | 16 |
| S5 | 0 | 1 | 4 | 5 | 10 |
| S6 | 0 | 0 | 2 | 4 | 6 |

Deliverables
What you walk away with.
Written for the engineers who fix things and the leaders who fund them.
- Named lead for the whole engagement
- Critical issues flagged the same day
- Retest included
Technical report
Every finding with severity, evidence, reproduction steps and a specific fix.
Executive summary
Two pages on risk, trends and what to fund first, written for leadership.
Findings in the platform
Issues sync to your tracker and the Resilient Privacy console for owners and due dates.
Retest and attestation
Verified fixes and a shareable letter for customers and auditors.
FAQ
Questions we hear most.
How long does a test take?
Usually one to three weeks of testing, depending on scope.
Will testing break production?
We agree safe windows and rules of engagement first, avoid destructive payloads, and stop and call you if anything looks unstable.
Can we share results with customers or auditors?
Yes. You get a letter of attestation that summarizes scope, dates and outcome without exposing details.
Do you offer continuous testing?
Yes. Rolling tests on a schedule with a live findings view, for teams that ship every week.
