Find Your Vulnerabilities Before Hackers Do (Free Assessment)
The Security Validation Challenge
Your organization invests in security controls:firewalls, endpoint protection, access controls, and more. But how do you know these controls actually work? Attackers constantly probe for weaknesses, testing every possible entry point.
Without penetration testing services validating your defenses, you're hoping security works rather than knowing it does.
The reality? Security tools and configurations often contain gaps that aren't obvious until someone actively tries to exploit them. Penetration testing as a service provides independent validation that your security controls effectively protect against real-world attacks.
Why Vulnerability Scanning Isn't Enough
Without comprehensive penetration testing services, organizations face:
Unknown vulnerabilities in applications and systems
Misconfigured security controls failing to protect
Compliance gaps requiring penetration testing validation
Attack paths allowing network lateral movement
Exploitable weaknesses in cloud infrastructure
False confidence in untested security measures
What Happens Without Penetration Testing Services
When security remains untested, breaches reveal weaknesses too late. That firewall configuration allowing unauthorized access. The application vulnerability enabling SQL injection. The cloud misconfiguration exposing sensitive data. The privilege escalation path letting attackers move freely. Penetration testing as a service identifies these issues before attackers exploit them.
The consequences are severe:
Security breaches through vulnerabilities you didn't know existed
Compliance failures when auditors require penetration testing evidence
Wasted security investment in controls that don't actually protect
Reactive incident response instead of proactive vulnerability remediation
Comprehensive Security Testing That Finds Real Vulnerabilities
Miami Cyber's penetration testing services deliver thorough security validation across your attack surface:
Network Penetration Testing
Ethical hackers attempt to breach your network perimeter and move laterally internally. This identifies vulnerabilities in firewalls, routers, servers, and network segmentation that attackers could exploit.
Application Penetration Testing
Comprehensive testing of web applications, mobile apps, and APIs identifies vulnerabilities like SQL injection, cross-site scripting, authentication bypasses, and business logic flaws before they're exploited.
Cloud Security Testing
Specialized testing for AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud environments. This identifies misconfigurations, excessive permissions, insecure APIs, and cloud-specific vulnerabilities that traditional testing misses.
Complete Penetration Testing as a Service
Our penetration testing services include:
External Network Testing
Testing internet-facing systems
Simulated attacks against your public-facing infrastructure. This identifies vulnerabilities in firewalls, VPNs, web servers, and other external systems that attackers target first.
Internal Network Testing
Testing insider threat scenarios
Testing from inside your network simulates compromised employee accounts or malicious insiders, identifying lateral movement paths, privilege escalation opportunities, and data access vulnerabilities.
Web Application Testing
Finding vulnerabilities in applications
Comprehensive OWASP Top 10 testing. This identifies SQL injection, XSS, broken authentication, security misconfigurations, and other application vulnerabilities enabling data breaches.
Cloud Infrastructure Testing
Validating cloud security posture
Specialized testing for cloud environments identifies misconfigurations, exposed storage, overprivileged IAM roles, insecure APIs, and cloud-specific attack vectors.
Wireless Network Testing
Testing WiFi security
Assessment of wireless security. This identifies weak encryption, rogue access points, WPA vulnerabilities, and wireless attack vectors allowing unauthorized network access.
Social Engineering Testing
Testing human vulnerability
Phishing simulations and social engineering attacks test employee security awareness, identifying vulnerabilities in your human security layer and training effectiveness.
Detailed Reporting & Remediation Guidance
Actionable vulnerability findings
Comprehensive reports document discovered vulnerabilities. This includes risk ratings, exploitation demonstrations, business impact analysis, and detailed remediation guidance prioritized by severity.
Retest Validation
Confirming vulnerability fixes
After remediation, focused retesting validates that identified vulnerabilities are properly fixed and security controls are effectively protecting your environment.

Penetration Testing Services - Common Questions
Vulnerability scanning is automated tool-based identification of known vulnerabilities:scanning systems for missing patches, misconfigurations, and common security issues. Penetration testing is manual testing by ethical hackers who actively exploit vulnerabilities to determine real-world impact, chain multiple vulnerabilities together, and identify business logic flaws that scanners miss. Scanners tell you "this vulnerability exists"; penetration testing proves "attackers can actually exploit this to access customer data." Think of scanning as a security checklist; penetration testing is hiring someone to actually try breaking in. Most organizations need both:regular vulnerability scanning plus periodic penetration testing.
Most organizations should conduct penetration testing annually at minimum, with additional testing when significant changes occur. Compliance frameworks typically require annual testing:PCI DSS mandates annual penetration testing plus testing after significant infrastructure changes, HIPAA requires regular security testing, SOC 2 typically includes annual penetration testing. Beyond compliance, test whenever you deploy new applications, make major infrastructure changes, migrate to cloud, or after security incidents. High-risk organizations or those with rapid changes may test quarterly. Regular testing ensures new vulnerabilities introduced through changes are identified before attackers exploit them.
Professional penetration testing is carefully scoped and scheduled to minimize disruption. We coordinate testing windows, agree on systems in-scope, establish communication protocols, and use tested methodologies that identify vulnerabilities without causing outages. Most testing occurs during normal business hours without users noticing. For particularly sensitive systems, testing can be scheduled during maintenance windows. While denial-of-service testing or certain destructive tests might impact availability, these are optional and explicitly agreed upon beforehand. The risk of controlled penetration testing is far less than the disruption of actual breaches discovering vulnerabilities the hard way.
Penetration testing costs vary based on scope, complexity, and testing depth. Small business external network tests start at $5,000-10,000. Comprehensive testing including internal networks, applications, and cloud infrastructure for medium businesses typically costs $15,000-40,000. Large enterprise engagements with extensive scope can exceed $50,000-100,000. Penetration testing as a service with quarterly testing often costs less annually than one-time projects. Factors affecting cost include number of IP addresses or applications tested, testing depth and methodology, reporting requirements, and whether retesting is included. While significant investment, penetration testing costs far less than breaches:average breach costs exceed $4 million.
After testing, you receive detailed report documenting all identified vulnerabilities with risk ratings (critical, high, medium, low), proof-of-concept exploitation demonstrating vulnerability, business impact analysis explaining consequences, and prioritized remediation guidance with specific fix recommendations. Your team addresses vulnerabilities based on severity:critical issues immediately, high-risk issues within 30 days, medium and low-risk items scheduled appropriately. Many penetration testing services include remediation support helping interpret findings and implement fixes. Once remediation is complete, focused retesting validates fixes work correctly. The goal isn't just finding vulnerabilities:it's helping you actually fix them before attackers strike.
