C3SA performs external, internal, application, cloud and adversarial penetration testing to identify exploitable paths and validate real security controls.
Test public-facing systems, services, applications and infrastructure.
Assess lateral movement, privilege escalation and internal attack paths.
Evaluate identity, authentication, delegation and privilege risk.
Test applications and APIs using manual and automated techniques.
Assess cloud identities, configurations, workloads and trust relationships.
Test detection and response against realistic adversary objectives.
Every test runs under written rules of engagement that define scope, timing, safety limits and contacts.
Testing your internet-facing systems, services and applications the way an outside attacker would, to find what can be exploited without any inside access.
What you get
Testing from an assumed-breach position inside the network to show how far an attacker could get through lateral movement and privilege escalation.
What you get
Focused testing of Active Directory and Entra ID: authentication, delegation, permissions and paths to domain or tenant administrator.
What you get
Manual and automated testing of applications and APIs for authentication, authorization, injection and business-logic flaws. See Application & API Security.
What you get
Assessing cloud identities, configurations, workloads and trust relationships for exploitable paths, within the testing rules of each cloud provider.
What you get
Objective-driven testing of detection and response against a realistic adversary, often without defenders knowing in advance. See Cyber Defence.
What you get
A penetration test should give you a realistic assessment of exploitable weaknesses. C3SA defines a business-aware scope and rules of engagement, tests the agreed assets, explains attack paths and their impact, and supports remediation and retesting.
Because C3SA also integrates security technology and runs vulnerability management, findings can be fixed and verified rather than left in a report.
At least annually for most organizations, and after significant changes such as new applications, major infrastructure changes or acquisitions. Some regulations and contracts set their own frequency.
A scan identifies known weaknesses automatically. A penetration test uses skilled testers to exploit and chain weaknesses, showing what an attacker could actually achieve.
Start with the Pentest Scope Builder or the scoping guide to define targets, objectives, exclusions and timing.
A client needs a realistic assessment of exploitable weaknesses.
C3SA defines business-aware scope and rules of engagement, tests agreed assets, explains attack paths and impact, and supports remediation and retesting.
Reproducible findings, business impact, prioritized fixes and validation results.
Define objectives, boundaries, safety constraints and evidence requirements before commissioning a penetration test.
