What happens during a free security assessment call?
+
It's a 15-minute conversation — not a sales pitch. We'll ask about your current setup (systems, cloud, remote access), your industry's compliance requirements, and any specific concerns. You'll leave with a clear picture of where your risk is and whether a pentest makes sense for your situation right now. No proposal, no pressure.
How long does a penetration test take?
+
For most SMBs, a full external + internal pentest runs 5–10 business days from kickoff to report delivery. Web application tests are typically 3–5 days. Scope determines duration — a 10-person law firm takes less time than a 200-person financial services firm. We scope accurately upfront so there are no surprises.
Do I need to prepare anything before a pentest?
+
Minimal preparation is needed. We'll collect a signed statement of work and rules of engagement, a list of in-scope IP ranges or domains, and emergency contacts in case something unexpected happens during testing. We do the rest. Many clients have never done a pentest before — we walk you through it.
We're a small firm. Is this overkill?
+
Small firms are the most-targeted. Attackers know small law firms and accounting practices have valuable client data but lack enterprise security. The average cost of a breach for an SMB is $4.4M — and 60% of small businesses close within six months of a major incident. A pentest at $7.5K is cheap insurance compared to that.
Will testing disrupt our operations?
+
External testing has zero impact on your operations — it's completely invisible to your users. For internal testing (on-site), we schedule around your business hours and communicate in real time. If anything unexpected comes up, we have direct contacts on standby. Business continuity is part of the scope agreement.
What do I get at the end?
+
A full pentest report with an executive summary (written for non-technical leadership), detailed technical findings with proof-of-concept evidence, a risk-rated remediation roadmap, and a debrief call to walk through findings. The report is formatted to satisfy most compliance requirements and cyber insurance questionnaires.
