Penetration testing
Cyber threats are constantly evolving and no system is inherently secure. Proactively protect your company from data loss, financial damage and reputational damage with a professional penetration test.
Penetration testing Identify and close security gaps
If you want to know how an attacker thinks
A penetration test (pentest for short) simulates real cyberattacks on your systems - controlled, documented and professional. This allows you to find out which vulnerabilities exist in your infrastructure, applications or cloud environments - before they are exploited.
Our certified ethical hackers test with proven methods, current attack scenarios and a clear goal: to make your systems more resilient.
Your advantages
- realistic attack simulation with clear risk assessment
- detailed report including proof of concept & recommended measures
- objective testing by certified pentesters
- strengthening your cyber defenses - technically and strategically
Let your systems do the talking - before attackers do
A pentest not only uncovers vulnerabilities, but also creates a reliable basis for your security strategy. Simulate attack scenarios & strengthen your defenses now!
Our penetration tests at a glance
We offer different pentest formats and test according to your objectives:
Each test is based on common standards such as OWASP, NIST or BSI - combined manually and automatically to ensure maximum testing depth.
A vulnerability scan is a superficial assessment, whereas a pentest goes deep - through realistic attack simulations with exploits, evaluations and retests.
We test everything that is potentially vulnerable: internal networks, external servers, web applications, APIs, mobile apps, cloud instances and Active Directory environments.
- Scoping & target definition
- Reconnaissance & vulnerability analysis
- Controlled exploitation
- Report with executive summary, POCs & CVSS risk analysis
- Recommended measures
- Optional: Presentation of the results as part of a separate meeting
- Optional: Post-test to check closed gaps
This depends on the scope and complexity of the test. A targeted test of individual systems can be completed in a few days - more comprehensive analyses (e.g. of networks, cloud environments or applications with many roles and functions) usually take between 5 and 15 working days. In any case, we determine the duration together in advance during scoping.
In the black box pentest, the tester receives no prior information about the target. In the greybox pentest, some information such as system details or access data is provided. In the whitebox pentest, the tester has complete knowledge of the system architecture and extensive access options.</p
Yes - our tests are carried out under controlled conditions without affecting production systems. All steps are documented, agreed and legally secured.</p
The ideal time for a pentest depends on factors such as new releases, system changes or regulatory requirements. It is recommended to carry out tests after significant system changes and on a regular basis.</p
The frequency of the pentests depends on your security needs and compliance requirements. Annual or semi-annual tests are common, or more frequently for critical systems.</p
The cost of a professional pentest depends on your individual requirements and the scope and complexity of the test. Even with a small budget, you can commission basic security tests. For more extensive or specially tailored analyses, we will be happy to provide you with a suitable quote - transparent and tailored to your needs.</p
NIS-2 requires regular security checks, including pentests, to ensure a high level of cyber security. Specific requirements apply to critical and essential infrastructure.</p
