"A prospect asked for our last pentest report. We didn't have one. The deal stalled."
Customer security questionnaires expect a current pentest report. Without one, deals stall at procurement.
Penetration testing, done properly
Stop losing deals over a missing pentest report.
Hands-on penetration testing for SaaS, fintech, and healthcare teams — a real test by a senior tester, a report engineers can act on, and a retest of reported findings, included in scope.

The five conversations
You're probably here because of one of these.
Most security buying decisions trace back to one of these five sentences.
"Our SOC 2 audit is eight weeks out and pentest is on the control list."
SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, and HIPAA all require periodic penetration testing. The window closes faster than teams plan for.
"The last vendor handed us a sixty-page PDF nobody could act on."
Findings without a working proof, a clear severity, and a fix engineers can paste into a ticket are findings nobody fixes.
"Our scanner says we're clean. We don't know if an attacker would actually get in."
Scanners miss authorization flaws, business-logic bugs, and chained vulnerabilities — the issues attackers prefer.
"The board is asking about our cyber posture. We don't have a credible answer."
Boards want a short, defensible summary of what was tested, what was found, and what was fixed.
How an engagement works
Four steps. No surprises.
- 01
Scoping call
Thirty minutes. We learn what you ship and what would hurt you most. You leave with a fixed scope, price, and date.
- 02
Hands-on testing
A senior tester runs the engagement end-to-end. Live channel for questions, evidence on the spot for criticals.
- 03
A report you’ll read
Every finding has a working proof, a clear severity, and a paste-ready fix. Plus a one-page board summary.
- 04
Retest
After you fix things we retest the reported findings and update the report — included in scope.
What you walk away with
One engagement. Three audiences served.
The deliverable
Get a straight answer A report you can hand to auditors, prospects, and your board.
One-page board summary, control-mapped executive section, and a developer section your team works from.
Working proof per finding
A reproduction and a paste-ready remediation an engineer can drop straight into a ticket.
Retest included
We retest reported findings after you fix them and update the report — in scope.
Control mapping
Findings tied to SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, and HIPAA so auditors get what they need.

Why customers come back
The outcomes that matter.
"
We had a customer security review on the calendar and no current pentest report. The scoping call was on a Tuesday; the engagement started that week; the report cleared the customer's review on first read. That deal closed the same month.
"
SOC 2 audit was eight weeks out and the auditor's control list expected a current penetration test. CyberGuards mapped every finding to the trust criteria, retested after we shipped the fixes, and the auditor closed the control on the first read.
"
Two prior vendors handed us a thick PDF and disappeared. CyberGuards walked our engineers through every finding, gave us a working proof for each one, and the retest landed before the audit window opened.
Honest answers to honest concerns
Things teams say before they hire us.
We are too small for a real pentest.
If customers are asking for a security review, you are the right size. Most smaller engagements cover one web app and an API in two to three weeks.
We already run scanners.
Good. Scanners catch the easy bugs. We focus on what they miss — broken authorization, tenant isolation, business logic, and chained flaws.
We need this before our audit deadline.
Tell us the deadline on the scoping call. We sequence engagements so the report and retest land before audit field work begins.
We do not want a 60-page PDF.
Neither do we. One page for the board, an executive section for auditors, and a developer section engineers can act on directly.
FAQ
Common questions
How much does an engagement cost?
Pricing is scope-based. Most smaller engagements (one web application and an API, or one cloud account) run two to three weeks of testing. Network or red team engagements run four to six weeks. We agree on a fixed price on the scoping call — no hourly billing, no scope creep. Retest is included at no extra cost.
What is a penetration test?
A hands-on assessment where qualified testers attempt to find and exploit vulnerabilities in your application, API, network, or cloud account — then document what they found and how to fix it. Different from a scanner because a real person reasons about your business logic and chains issues the way an attacker would.
How long does an engagement take?
Web application or API engagements: two to three weeks of testing plus a week of reporting. Network or red team: four to six weeks. We commit to a delivery date on the scoping call.
Will testing affect production?
We default to staging when one exists. Where production testing is necessary we agree on safe-testing rules up front, throttle activity, and stay reachable on a shared channel.
Do you provide a retest after we fix issues?
Yes — retest of items in the report is included in scope at no extra cost. The report is updated to reflect fixes so the version you share with customers and auditors is accurate.
Will the report satisfy a SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, or HIPAA auditor?
Reports include a control-mapping section tying each finding to the relevant trust criteria, Annex A control, PCI DSS requirement, or HIPAA safeguard. Clients consistently use these reports as audit evidence without rework.
Who actually does the testing?
A senior tester leads every engagement, run in-house — no subcontracting. You will know who is on your engagement before we start.
