Time-boxed pentests
3–7 days
Aligned with sprint cycles.
Retest window
On-demand
Automated, low friction.
Why Cybernetica
Focused, pragmatic penetration testing
We don’t sell managed security or tooling bundles. Our work is hands-on penetration testing backed by automation where it makes sense. The goal is simple: give you clear, technically accurate findings and help you close them quickly.
Built around engineering teams
- • Test windows that match your sprint cadence, release freezes and launch dates.
- • Findings written so engineers can act: clear impact, proof-of-concept, and practical fixes.
- • Support for SOC 2, ISO 27001 and customer due-diligence questionnaires.
- • Direct access to the tester during and after the engagement — not a helpdesk queue.
Coverage
We perform black, grey and white box penetration tests across:
- ▸Cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure, GCP)
- ▸Web applications & APIs
- ▸Mobile apps (iOS & Android)
- ▸Internal & external networks
- ▸Thick-client / desktop applications
- ▸Supporting services and integrations
Not sure what you need? We’ll help shape a scope that maps to real risk and the assurances your customers are asking for.
Services
Penetration testing, end-to-end
A single partner for application, cloud and infrastructure testing, with automation around your CI/CD so you can keep shipping while tightening security.
Cloud & Kubernetes Security
Assessment of your cloud accounts, container platforms and supporting services: identity & access, network layout, data exposure, secrets, build pipelines and more.
Mobile App Penetration Testing
iOS and Android testing for data storage, transport security, API usage, jailbreak/root resistance, and abuse scenarios that impact your users.
Network & Thick-Client Testing
Internal and perimeter testing simulating insider or external attackers, plus assessments of desktop/thick-client software and supporting infrastructure.
CI/CD-Aware Retesting & Automation
Automation
Lightweight security checks you can run as pipelines complete, plus structured retesting windows as you fix issues — without starting from scratch each time.
Compliance-Ready Reporting
Reports written to support SOC 2, ISO 27001 and customer audits: clear evidence, severity ratings, and mapping to common control sets.
Startup Plan
A pentest plan built for startups
You have limited time, a security section in every deal, and a product that keeps changing. Our Startup Plan is built to give you credible results, predictable costs and fast turnaround.
Startup Security Plan
Fast-track penetration testing for growing teams
Designed for seed to pre-IPO companies that need a solid security story
without enterprise-style overhead.
01. Scope that matches your stage
We help you decide what has to be in scope now (for customers and investors)
and what can realistically wait for a later phase.
02. Timeline that fits your roadmap
Testing windows planned around key launches so you can ship on time while
still closing out critical security work.
03. Pricing that doesn’t punish agility
Clear pricing for initial testing plus streamlined retest cycles
as you iterate on features and fixes.
04. Compliance in mind from day one
Reporting and evidence you can reuse for SOC 2, ISO 27001, customer
security reviews and board updates.
How it supports Agile / CI/CD
- • Security checks that align with your CI/CD tooling (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, etc.), so you can trigger scans and partial checks as part of the normal build.
- • On-demand retest of fixed issues at minimal extra cost, with clear confirmation in the original report.
- • Option for short “delta” assessments when you roll out major new features between full pentests.
- • Access to the same testers over time so context isn’t lost between engagements.

Approach
Clear approach, predictable outcomes
Whether we’re working black, grey or white box, the goal is the same: understand how your system is actually used, model realistic attack paths, and share findings that move your security posture forward.
01
Scoping & threat modelling
We map your assets, user journeys and third-party dependencies, then agree on a scope
that targets real risk and the assurances you need to give customers.
02
Testing & collaboration
Active testing using a mix of automated tooling and deep manual work.
You have a direct line to the tester, and we’ll flag truly critical issues as they’re found.
03
Reporting & remediation support
Structured report with technical details, impact, severity and fix guidance.
We’re available to walk your team through any part of the findings.
04
Retest & ongoing partnership
Once fixes are in place, we perform targeted retesting and update the report.
Many clients schedule recurring checks tied to their roadmap.
Contact
Tell us what you need to ship
Share a little about your product, timelines and any compliance requirements. We’ll respond with a practical scope, an estimate and suggested dates — no hard sell.
What to include
- • Your tech stack (cloud provider, main languages, key services).
- • Rough timelines, launch dates or compliance deadlines.
- • Any specific standards or customer requirements (SOC 2, ISO 27001, etc.).
- • What you’re most concerned about from a security perspective.
If you prefer, you can also contact us using your usual secure channel or NDA before sharing sensitive details. We’re used to working with early-stage and stealth products.
