Question 1

What is the difference between a vulnerability scan and a penetration test?

Accepted Answer

A vulnerability scan uses automated tools to identify known weaknesses, while a penetration test involves certified professionals manually exploiting those weaknesses to determine real-world business impact. Pen testing reveals attack chains and logic flaws that scanners cannot detect.

Question 2

How long does a penetration test typically take?

Accepted Answer

Scope determines duration. A focused web application test may take 3–5 days, while a full-scope engagement covering network, cloud, and applications typically runs 2–4 weeks. We provide a detailed timeline during scoping.

Question 3

Will the penetration test disrupt our production systems?

Accepted Answer

We work with you to define rules of engagement that minimize risk to production. Testing is coordinated during agreed windows, and our team uses controlled exploitation techniques that do not cause data loss or outages.

Question 4

What deliverables do we receive after the test?

Accepted Answer

You receive a detailed report with an executive summary, technical findings ranked by severity, evidence (screenshots, payloads), and actionable remediation guidance mapped to your technology stack. A free retest of critical findings is included.

Question 5

Which certifications do your penetration testers hold?

Accepted Answer

Our lead testers hold CPENT, LPT (Master), CEH, and OSCP certifications. All testing follows PTES and OWASP methodologies, and our team maintains current knowledge of real-world threat actor techniques.
