Penetration Testing

Penetration testing is an authorized, simulated cyberattack run by certified ethical hackers to expose exploitable vulnerabilities before real attackers find them. Lanos Logic pentests web apps, APIs, networks, and cloud infrastructure using PTES, OWASP, and MITRE ATT&CK methodologies, then keeps testing between engagements with automated attack simulation.

What is Penetration Testing?

Penetration testing is an authorized, simulated cyberattack carried out by certified ethical hackers to expose exploitable vulnerabilities before real attackers find them. Lanos Logic pentests web applications, APIs, networks, and cloud infrastructure using industry-standard methodologies - PTES, the OWASP Web Security Testing Guide, and MITRE ATT&CK - so testing mirrors the tools, techniques, and procedures of actual adversaries rather than running a checklist. Where a scanner reports a potential issue, a pentester proves whether it can truly be exploited and how far an attacker could get.

Engagements can include web app and API testing against OWASP WSTG, network and cloud infrastructure testing, and social engineering or phishing simulations that test your people as well as your systems. Testing can be black-box (no prior knowledge, like an outside attacker), grey-box (a normal user account), or white-box (with source code and architecture access), and it targets what automated tools miss: business-logic flaws, chained low-severity issues, privilege escalation, and access-control gaps between tenants or roles.

A pentest is a snapshot, and attackers do not wait for the next one. Between manual engagements we run automated attack simulation that replays the techniques that worked against you, mapped to MITRE ATT&CK, and adds new techniques as they are published. Every confirmed finding becomes an automated regression test, so you know if a fixed vulnerability reopens after a release, and the results tell our testers where to focus next time.

The reports are accepted as evidence for SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, PCI-DSS, and regulatory audits, so a pentest satisfies both your security goals and your compliance obligations. Scope and timing are agreed on a free discovery call and quoted at a fixed price. Penetration Testing is the adversarial validation step in our cybersecurity practice, alongside Application Security Testing (flaws in code), Security Vulnerability Scanning (continuous detection), and Systems Hardening & Cloud Posture (closing the gaps testing reveals).

Key Features

Our penetration testing are designed to handle a wide range of tasks.

Web App & API Pentesting (OWASP WSTG)

Network & Cloud Infrastructure Testing

Social Engineering & Phishing Simulations

Business Benefits

Implementing penetration testing can transform your business.

Real-World Attack Simulation

Test defenses under conditions that mirror actual attacker techniques, tools, and procedures (TTPs).

Detailed Remediation Roadmap

Every finding includes reproduction steps, CVSS score, and step-by-step remediation guidance, and becomes an automated regression test that flags it if a fixed hole reopens.

Compliance Evidence

Pentest reports accepted for SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, PCI-DSS, and regulatory audits.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Penetration Testing from Lanos Logic.

Penetration testing is an authorised, simulated cyberattack carried out by certified ethical hackers to find and prove exploitable vulnerabilities in your web apps, APIs, networks, and cloud infrastructure before real attackers do.

Black-box testing starts with no inside knowledge, like an external attacker. Grey-box testing starts with a normal user account, which is how most real breaches unfold. White-box testing includes source code and architecture access and gives the deepest coverage for the time spent. We recommend the approach on the scoping call based on your goals and compliance needs.

At least once a year, and after major changes such as a new product, a large release, or a cloud migration. SOC 2, ISO 27001, and PCI-DSS auditors typically expect an annual test, and PCI-DSS also requires testing after significant changes.

Testing follows written rules of engagement that set scope, timing, and techniques. Destructive tests are excluded or run against staging, and we stop and call you immediately if we find a critical issue or anything unexpected.

A focused web app or API test usually takes one to two weeks, with a report shortly after. Price depends on scope - applications, roles, endpoints, and network size - and is quoted as a fixed price after a free scoping call.

Automated attack simulation keeps running. It replays the techniques that worked against you, mapped to MITRE ATT&CK, adds new techniques as they are published, and turns every confirmed finding into a regression test, so you know if a fixed vulnerability reopens after a release.
