Security Testing

Policies look great on paper.
Would your app survive an actual attack?

You've built policies, mapped controls, and passed your compliance checks. But compliance doesn't mean secure. On-demand adversarial testing validates that your defenses actually hold up — with real attack techniques, real findings, and real remediation steps.

How It Works

From configuration to report in hours, not weeks

We built the compliance engine.

For the attack engine, we partnered with the best.

Real adversarial testing against your applications and APIs. The same kind of engagement that normally takes weeks to schedule and costs tens of thousands of dollars — available on-demand through the vCISO Lite platform.

Authentication Bypass via OAuth State Manipulation

Intercept OAuth callback → Forge state parameter → Gain unauthorized access to admin panel
Implement cryptographic state binding with server-side session validation
HIGHCWE-639

Insecure Direct Object Reference in API

Enumerate user IDs → Access /api/users/{id}/documents → Exfiltrate sensitive files
Implement resource-level authorization checks with ownership validation
MEDIUMCWE-307

Rate Limiting Absent on Authentication Endpoint

Target /api/auth/login → Brute force credentials → Account compromise
Add progressive rate limiting with exponential backoff and account lockout

No separate contract. No six-week scheduling window. No $50K engagement fee. Just click, authorize, and test.

Why This Changes Everything

Attack findings meet business context

A standalone pentest gives you a PDF with CVSS scores. Red Claw through vCISO Lite gives you attack chains tied to dollar amounts, deal names, and strategic objectives.

Findings map to your controls

Every vulnerability links to the control that should have prevented it — and the policy behind that control.

Attack chains get dollar values

Your platform already knows your business context. When an attack chain threatens your payment processing, you see the $2.4M deal it would stall.

Risk scores update in real-time

Findings feed directly into your FAIR risk model. Your board report reflects actual validated exposure, not theoretical risk.

Retest proves remediation

Fix the findings, run it again. Show auditors and investors that vulnerabilities were found and resolved — with proof.

Real-World Impact
“This isn't just a critical authentication bypass. This attack chain would compromise your payment processing integration, which would stall the Acme Corp deal worth $2.4M and put your Q3 revenue target at risk.”

That's the difference between a vulnerability report and business intelligence.

Common questions

What buyers ask about security testing

  • Is this a real pentest or just an automated scanner?

    Real adversarial testing, not a scanner. The findings on this page (auth bypass via OAuth state manipulation, IDOR chains, missing rate-limits) are the kind of chains a scanner never surfaces because they require reasoning across multiple endpoints. Scanners find CVEs. This finds attack paths.

  • Does this replace my annual third-party pentest?

    In some cases, yes; in some cases, no. For internal governance, board reporting, and continuous validation, this is the primary tool. For frameworks that specifically require an independent third-party pentest as evidence (PCI DSS 11.4.1, some SOC 2 auditor interpretations), you still want the third-party engagement on top. We flag which of your framework requirements this satisfies and which it doesn't.

  • How long does an engagement take?

    Configure and authorize in an hour. Execution runs unattended over hours to days depending on scope. Report drops when it's done. There's no waiting weeks for a consultant's calendar to open.

  • What does it attack — just web apps, or infrastructure too?

    Web apps, APIs, and authenticated flows are the primary targets. Cloud infrastructure posture (misconfigured buckets, over-permissive IAM, exposed management interfaces) is validated separately by the compliance integrations. If you're asking about a specific target class, the configure step tells you whether it's in scope.

  • Does a finding here satisfy SOC 2 evidence for CC7.1?

    Every finding maps to the specific control it affects, and every remediation gets a timestamped fix-and-retest record. That's the evidence artifact SOC 2 CC7.1 (system operation), CC7.2 (system monitoring), and CC4.1 (control monitoring) actually want. Your auditor sees the finding, the fix, and the passing retest as one linked record, not three PDFs.

  • Can I run it whenever I want, or is it scheduled?

    On-demand. Kick off an engagement before a release, after a major refactor, when a customer's questionnaire asks for "recent pentest evidence." It's not a once-a-year event locked to a consultant's Q4.
