External Penetration Testing.
Overview.
External Penetration Testing is a simulated cyberattack conducted from outside your organization’s network, targeting publicly accessible assets such as websites, APIs, cloud infrastructure, email servers, VPNs, and DNS. The goal is to identify vulnerabilities that real-world attackers could exploit to gain unauthorized access, disrupt operations, or exfiltrate data, without requiring internal access or credentials.
Purpose.
We evaluate the effectiveness of your perimeter security and expose potential attack vectors that threat actors could leverage over the internet.
What We Offer
Web Application Penetration Testing
API Security Testing
Cloud Infrastructure Review
We test your login systems, user flows, business logic, and APIs for vulnerabilities like injection, broken access control, session hijacking, and more, aligned with OWASP Top 10.
REST, SOAP, or GraphQL—we assess for misconfigurations, excessive data exposure, insecure authentication, and rate-limiting issues using standards like OWASP API Security Top 10.
For AWS, Azure, or GCP, we detect
-
Misconfigured storage (e.g., S3 buckets)
-
Insecure IAM policies
-
Publicly exposed services
-
Privilege escalation risks
Our Testing Methodology
Reconnaissance & Mapping

Reporting & Remediation Plan
Identifying and mapping exposed assets, services, and vulnerabilities to understand the attack surface and plan targeted security testing.
Automated scans combined with expert manual analysis to detect, validate, and prioritize security weaknesses in applications, APIs, and infrastructure.
Simulating real-world attacks to exploit identified vulnerabilities, assess potential impact, and validate security gaps in a controlled environment.
Analyzing the impact of successful exploits to evaluate potential damage, data exposure, and lateral movement risks within the compromised environment.
Delivering detailed findings with risk ratings and actionable recommendations to fix vulnerabilities and strengthen overall security posture.
What You’ll Get
A detailed technical report with proof-of-concept for each finding
Executive summary for leadership
A live consultation to walk through findings with Optional retest within 30 days
Comprehensive documentation of each vulnerability, including technical details, potential impact, and step-by-step proof-of-concept (PoC) demonstrating how the issue can be exploited, aiding effective remediation and validation.
A high-level overview of key findings, business impact, and risk exposure, tailored for non-technical stakeholders to support informed decision-making and prioritization of security improvements.
Interactive session with security experts to review findings, clarify risks, and discuss remediation strategies, with an optional retest within 30 days to verify fixes and ensure issues are fully resolved.
