Manual pentesting. Fixed price.
No back-and-forth quotes.
A one-week, audit-ready engagement.
Your enterprise customer wants a third-party pentest before they sign. Your SOC 2 auditor expects one. We deliver the full report in one week, while most vendors take three just for a proposal.

4.7 / 5 Rating
No hourly rates. No retainer. No invoice that comes in 40% higher than the quote. One asset, one week, one fixed price.
Not 3 weeks. Not "pending scoping confirmation." Day seven, you have a report — verified findings, risk ratings, and remediation notes.
SOC 2. ISO 27001. HIPAA. Enterprise security reviews. The report format is designed to satisfy exactly what these frameworks expect.
A buyer asked for a pentest before they'll sign.
You're 60-90 days out from SOC 2 or ISO 27001.
You're launching and want to know where you stand.
You've never had a proper third-party security test.
Whether you're early-stage or scaling, building SaaS, fintech, healthtech, or AI. We specialize in high-velocity teams across NZ, Australia, and the US.
If you need a 60-page vendor proposal, three intro calls, and a process that takes longer than the test itself - we're probably not the right fit. We skip the red tape.
SaaS platforms, customer dashboards, admin panels, and internal portals.
Tested from an external attacker's perspective - no internal access needed. We focus on the surface your customers and attackers actually see.
iOS and Android apps. Authentication, session handling, and API calls.
We check the areas most auditors scrutinise - and most teams leave untested until it's too late: local storage, biometrics, and session security.
Broken auth, excessive data exposure, and business logic flaws.
The attack surface most startups expose before they realise it needs testing. We dive deep into injection flaws and cross-tenant data leaks.
You pick the one that matters most for your next audit or deal. Multiple assets? Use the scoping form - we'll come back with clear pricing and no surprises.
Short form below. We review every application within 24 hours to confirm your startup's eligibility.
One call. We confirm the asset, access requirements, and your compliance target. No long discovery sessions.
Manual testing by security researchers - not automated scans. You keep shipping. We keep testing.
Verified vulnerabilities, risk ratings, and remediation guidance your team can act on. Structured for auditors.
No long discovery sessions. No back-and-forth for two weeks. Just results.
Fair question. Those platforms were built for enterprise security teams with annual testing budgets of more than $15,000. If you're a startup in Auckland or Sydney, they will often quote you out of the conversation.
