For engineering leaders

Your engineers will reject findings they can't reproduce. Ours come with the proof already in the ticket.

Every CyberGuards finding ships with working proof, severity mapped to your risk model, and paste-ready remediation — not a CVE description your team has to translate.

Is this the engagement you need?

You're probably here because of one of these.

The last pentest report nobody acted on.

Generic CVE descriptions, severity that didn't match your business. Findings stayed in the tracker; the next pentest found them again.

Your engineers do not trust scanner output.

Authorization flaws, tenant isolation, business logic, chained issues — scanners cannot reason about any of it.

A customer security review is on the calendar.

Procurement expects a current third-party pentest report and your team hasn't run one this year.

An audit deadline drives the engagement.

SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, or HIPAA — your auditor expects a current pentest as evidence.

You are scaling and want a real baseline.

Before the next product line ships or funding round closes, you want a current map of what an attacker would actually find.

If any of these are why you are reading this page, the rest of it is for you.

What you walk away with

Every finding built for your team to act on.

Working proof per finding

Exact request, response evidence, and paste-ready remediation — not a CVE description.

Business-context severity

Severity rated against your business context, not CVSS alone — so your team works the right queue.

Same-day critical disclosure

Critical findings hit your team the same day they're confirmed — not in the final report.

Retest included in scope

Retest of reported findings after your team ships fixes — included, not a billable change order.

How an engagement runs

Four steps. No subcontractors. No surprises.

  1. 01

    Quick scoping call

    We walk your architecture, auth model, tenancy boundaries, and surfaces you most want tested. You leave with a fixed scope, fixed price, delivery date, and a written rules-of-engagement draft.

  2. 02

    Hands-on testing

    A senior tester runs the engagement end-to-end. Live channel for your team. Same-day disclosure if something critical surfaces. No subcontractors, no junior handoff.

  3. 03

    Report your team will actually read

    One document, three audiences. Board summary, control-mapped executive section for auditors, and a developer section where every finding has working evidence, severity in your business context, and paste-ready remediation.

  4. 04

    Retest

    After fixes we retest reported items and update the report — included in scope. The version you share with auditors or customers reflects the post-fix state.

Honest answers to engineering-leader questions

Things engineering leaders ask before they hire us.

"Is this a real test or a glorified scanner run?"

A senior tester runs the engagement by hand. The findings that matter — authorization flaws, tenant isolation, business logic, chained exploits — require a real person reasoning about your application. Sample reports available after the scoping call.

"Will my engineers actually trust the findings?"

Every finding includes the exact request, response evidence, reproduction conditions, and paste-ready remediation for your language and framework. Engineers do not have to translate the report into work.

"Can you handle our authentication, multi-tenancy, and roles?"

Yes. We test under real user contexts — anonymous, authenticated, role-shifted, and across tenant boundaries — walking authorization at the resolver/endpoint level.

"We cannot have testing crash production."

We default to staging when one exists. Where production testing is necessary we agree safe-testing rules up front, throttle activity, and keep a live channel open for the duration.

"How fast can we onboard a pentest vendor?"

NDA, scope, and rules of engagement typically take one to two weeks. Testing starts the week after. Total time from first call to delivered report is most often four to six weeks for a focused engagement.

A real story.

“Two earlier vendors handed us reports our engineers could not act on. CyberGuards' findings read like a senior engineer wrote them — exact requests, exact responses, severity that matched our actual risk model, remediations that named the framework and the file. The retest closed every reported item. Our team is going to ask for this vendor next year.”

For the budget owner

Bringing this to your CEO or CFO.

Three things your leadership team needs to see before they sign.

Predictable budget

Fixed scope, fixed price

Confirmed on the scoping call before any work starts. No hourly billing, no scope creep, no surprise change order to retest. One line item your finance team can budget against.

Three-audience report

A report your CEO and CFO can read

One-page board summary, an executive section with compliance control mapping, and a developer section your engineers work from. Leadership reads the first page; engineers work from the third.

Reference-backed

Talk to our customers before you sign

After the scoping call we connect you to reference customers at similar size and stage — their security or engineering leader speaks directly to yours.
