VirtuWorks penetration testing is a managed engagement, not a one-time PDF. Our senior offensive security engineers test your external and internal networks, web applications, wireless environment, and human attack surface, then hand you a written report mapped to OWASP and NIST SP 800-115. Then we partner with your team to close the findings, retest after remediation, and hand you the evidence packet your auditor, cyber-insurance broker, or enterprise client is asking for.
Get My Instant QuoteYour cyber-insurance renewal now requires a pentest. Your SOC 2 Type 2 auditor put pentest evidence on the request list. A large enterprise client sent a vendor security questionnaire asking for a recent pentest report. Your HIPAA or PCI-DSS annual review is on the horizon. You have not tested your external network, web app, or internal environment in the last 12 months. Any one of these signals means it is time to book penetration testing. Two of them means the auditor is already waiting.
We test your internet-facing infrastructure the way an attacker on the open web would: mapping your perimeter, probing exposed services, testing authentication endpoints, and attempting to gain a foothold. Every finding is scored using CVSS v3.1 and mapped to a concrete remediation step. External network testing is required annually under PCI-DSS Requirement 11.4 and expected under SOC 2 CC7 and ISO 27001 A.12.6.1.
We simulate an attacker who has landed on your internal network, whether through a phished user, a rogue device, in or a bad Wi-Fi connection. Our team tests lateral movement, privilege escalation, credential harvesting, sensitive data access, and domain-admin compromise scenarios. Internal testing is often the finding that separates a mature security posture from a checkbox one, and it is what cyber-insurance underwriters increasingly demand at renewal.
We test your customer portals, internal web tools, and public-facing web apps against the OWASP Top 10 and beyond: injection flaws, broken authentication, sensitive data exposure, security misconfigurations, cross-site scripting, insecure deserialization, and business-logic abuse. Our web application testing covers modern JavaScript SPAs, REST and GraphQL APIs, and single-sign-on integrations.
We test the wireless perimeter around your offices and jobsites: SSID enumeration, WPA/WPA2/WPA3 cracking attempts, rogue access-point detection, captive-portal bypass, and guest-to-corporate segmentation gaps. Wireless testing is a required control under PCI-DSS Requirement 11.4 for cardholder data environments and is a common gap that shows up in cyber-insurance underwriter questionnaires.
We test the human attack surface with authorized phishing campaigns, vishing (voice phishing) attempts, pretexting scenarios, and where scoped, physical social engineering. Every user interaction is recorded, every click is timestamped, and every user who falls for a simulation is enrolled in remediation training the same day. Social-engineering testing is what turns your security-awareness training program from a compliance checkbox into a measurable behavior change.
Every VirtuWorks pen testing engagement includes a scoped remediation window and a free retest of any critical or high-severity findings. Because our senior engineers deliver both the pentest and the ongoing Managed Cybersecurity engagement, the fixes actually get implemented. Firms that use VirtuWorks for both the pentest and the ongoing SOC typically close 90 percent of critical findings within 30 days, versus the industry average of 6 to 12 months for standalone pentest engagements.
VirtuWorks pen testing is not just an audit checkbox. It is a security engagement that produces measurable business results: a passed audit, a lower cyber-insurance premium, closed critical findings, and a documented remediation history your board can point to when a regulator, an underwriter, or an enterprise client asks.
