Questions

What do we get at the end of a penetration test?

A written report with evidence and fix instructions for each finding, plus a short summary for leadership. We go through it with your team on a call and can retest once you've made fixes.

We need a pentest for SOC 2, HIPAA, or a customer. Can you help?

Yes. Tell us what's requiring the test and we'll scope it to match.

Do you work with small teams?

Yes, that's mainly who we work with.

How is pricing handled?

We quote each job after the scoping call. You get the price in writing before any work starts.

Do you work on-site?

Yes. We're in Nashville and can come on-site when a job needs it. We also work remotely with clients elsewhere.

Who owns the software you build?

You do. The code lives in your repository, with documentation.
