Pentesting: Identify and Eliminate IT Security Risks

A pentest (penetration test) is essential for strengthening IT security, mitigating risks, and safeguarding sensitive data from cyber threats.

Our team of certified security experts conducts targeted tests to identify vulnerabilities in your systems and applications, including:

  • IT infrastructures & networks
  • Web applications & APIs
  • Mobile applications
  • IoT & OT environments

By thoroughly testing your systems with realistic attack scenarios, we uncover vulnerabilities before malicious actors can exploit them. Our team provides a detailed risk analysis, including actionable recommendations to enhance your overall security posture.

Manual Pentests by Certified Ethical Hackers

The value and effectiveness of our pentests lie in the manual testing methods and techniques, as well as the creativity of our ethical hackers. By conducting targeted tests within the research scope and considering the context, semantics, and client requirements, we can link different vulnerabilities to produce meaningful research results. These results are presented in a comprehensive report via our custom-developed Reporter portal, including findings, concrete recommendations, and general advice for improving the security of your web applications and IT infrastructure.

Choosing the Right Pentest Strategy

We conduct different types of penetration tests, each varying in the level of access and prior knowledge provided to the researcher. The choice of test impacts how vulnerabilities are identified and how closely the assessment simulates a real-world attack scenario.

To ensure the most effective and relevant test, we work closely with each client to determine the best approach based on their security environment, threat landscape, and specific testing goals.

  • Black-box test - Minimal knowledge provided, closely simulating real-life hacking scenarios.
  • Grey-box test - Partial information provided, such as a login account.
  • White-box test - Researchers typically have access to the application's source code and all configuration details, yielding the most thorough findings.
  • Time-boxed/budget-box test - The duration or budget of the project dictates the test endpoint.

Testing Methods & Techniques

Our pentests combine manual methods and techniques, used by real hackers, with automated security tools. This blend of comprehensive testing methods ensures the discovery of most vulnerabilities and security risks within your web application.

Through our ongoing security research efforts, we stay abreast of the latest developments and issues in cybersecurity, including zero-day vulnerabilities and the newest hacking methods and techniques.

Our Pentesting Methodology: In-Depth and Recognized

An effective penetration test goes beyond simply finding vulnerabilities – it's about understanding their impact and providing actionable solutions. Our certified ethical hackers utilize methodologies that not only uncovers vulnerabilities but also offers concrete recommendations to strengthen your security posture.

Our approach is based on internationally recognized frameworks, including:

  • NIST Cybersecurity Framework – Risk management and best practices for IT security.
  • OWASP Testing Guide – Testing web applications for the most critical vulnerabilities.
  • PTES & OSSTMM – Standards for comprehensive and structured pentesting.
  • ISSAF – Assessment framework for systems and networks.

Why is this important for you?

  1. Pentest results aligned with compliance requirements such as ISO27001, NIS2, and GDPR.
  2. Clear and actionable reports – no technical overload, just concrete steps for improvement.
  3. A tailored approach for your organization – from black-box simulations to in-depth white-box audits.
