FAQs

What is the difference between penetration testing and vulnerability scanning?
Vulnerability scanning is automated and identifies known flaws. Penetration testing goes further: our experts actively attempt to exploit vulnerabilities as a real attacker would, testing defenses in depth and attack chains.
How long does a penetration test take?
Duration varies by scope: 3-5 days for a web application, 5-10 days for an internal network, 2-3 weeks for a complete pentest (web + network + social engineering). We define the schedule together during scoping.
Can penetration testing disrupt our production systems?
We minimize risks with strict rules of engagement. Destructive tests (DoS) are excluded unless explicitly requested on test environments. We use non-intrusive techniques in production and notify immediately upon critical discovery.
What types of penetration tests do you offer?
We offer: Web pentest (OWASP Top 10), Network pentest (internal/external), Mobile pentest (iOS/Android), API pentest (REST/GraphQL), Red Team (advanced attack simulation), and Social Engineering (phishing, vishing). Each approach can be black box, gray box, or white box.
