Clear reports. Fast turnaround. No jargon.
Designed to satisfy your auditor, client, or insurer — not just your security team.
Do you need a pentest for…
Every engagement includes a compliance-ready report, free retest of fixed findings, and a scoping call to tailor the test to your environment.
Full-scope testing of your SaaS, web app, or admin panel. Covers OWASP Top 10, business logic flaws, auth bypass, and access control.
REST, GraphQL, and SOAP API testing. Covers rate limiting, injection, auth, object-level auth, and mass assignment vulnerabilities.
AWS, GCP, or Azure security configuration audit. Covers IAM, S3/storage buckets, security groups, logging, and encryption settings.
We define targets, timelines, and compliance requirements together. I review your architecture and tailor the engagement to your needs. NDA signed before any testing begins.
1–2 daysActive testing using OWASP, PTES, and NIST-based methodology. You receive a daily status update so nothing is a surprise. No black boxes — you know what's happening.
3–14 days (per scope)You receive a compliance-ready report: executive summary, technical findings with CVSS scores, remediation steps, and an appendix with evidence. Written for auditors and engineers alike.
2–3 days after testingAfter your team fixes the findings, I retest every one — free. You get an updated report confirming remediation. Then you're ready for your audit, client review, or insurer sign-off.
Free — included with every engagementThese companies were notified of security vulnerabilities through their public bug bounty programs or responsible disclosure channels. This reflects independent security research — not paid client engagements, endorsements, or ongoing contracts.
Bug bounty recognition and paid pentesting engagements are different. The companies above were notified as part of independent security research. For paid client engagements (available after your first contract), see Client Testimonials — coming once I have real client relationships to reference.
OWASP Top 10, API Top 10, and ASVS-aligned testing across all web and API engagements.
Penetration Testing Execution Standard — structured, repeatable, and defensible methodology.
Technical Guide to Information Security Testing and Assessment — planning, execution, and reporting.
Cloud and infrastructure reviews benchmarked against CIS controls for AWS, GCP, and Azure.
Most web application pentests are completed in 5–10 business days. API assessments typically take 3–7 days. Network and cloud reviews run 5–14 days depending on scope. You'll have a firm timeline after the scoping call — no moving targets.
Every report includes: an executive summary for non-technical stakeholders, detailed findings with CVSS scores and business impact, step-by-step remediation guidance, and an appendix with evidence (screenshots, request/response data). If you need the report formatted for a specific compliance framework (SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI-DSS), that's included.
You fix the findings. I retest everything — free. You get an updated report confirming remediation. If your auditor has follow-up questions, I'm available to respond directly. The goal is to get you through your audit or review, not just hand over a PDF.
Yes — always, before any technical discussion or testing begins. I'm happy to work with your standard NDA or provide one. Your data, architecture, and findings remain confidential.
I use fixed-scope pricing — the price we agree on during scoping is the price you pay. No hourly surprises, no scope creep without your approval. Typical ranges are shown in the Services section. Exact pricing depends on scope, authenticated vs. unauthenticated testing, and number of targets.
Yes. If you're a startup that needs a pentest because a client or investor requires it, I understand budget constraints. Let's discuss it on the scoping call — I'd rather work with you at a rate that makes sense than have you skip a pentest entirely.
Most engagements are done remotely. Web apps, APIs, and cloud config reviews are tested over a VPN or against your production/staging environment. We'll agree on the exact approach during scoping.
Me — Nitish Kumar Shah. I'm the one who scopes, tests, writes the report, and handles the retest. No junior staff, no subcontractors. You get direct access to the person doing the work.
No commitment. No sales pitch. Just a 20-minute call to understand your requirements and see if we're a fit.
