We recommend testing at least once per quarter, or any time you deploy major updates, launch a new application, or experience unusual network activity. Regular audits help you stay ahead of evolving threats.

Absolutely. Attackers often target small businesses because they assume defenses are weak. Penetration testing simulates real-world attacks so you can fix vulnerabilities before they’re exploited—protecting your brand, customers, and data.

For meaningful threat detection, we recommend forwarding authentication logs, firewall events, intrusion detection alerts, DNS queries, and endpoint logs. In more advanced environments, cloud access logs, Active Directory audit logs, and VPN connections should also be included to improve visibility and correlation.

We follow a hybrid approach based on OWASP, MITRE ATT&CK, and NIST SP 800-115 frameworks. This includes reconnaissance, enumeration, exploitation, privilege escalation, and post-exploitation, combined with detailed reporting and remediation guidance. Tests are customized based on your scope, architecture, and compliance needs.
