Offensive Security

Penetration Testing Services in Pakistan

Manual, OSCP-grade testing that emulates real attackers against your assets.

What it is

Our penetration testing emulates a determined, skilled adversary against your in-scope assets to find what automated scanners miss: chained logic flaws, broken authorization, and the realistic attack paths that actually lead to compromise. Every engagement is led by senior, certified operators and delivered with evidence you can act on.

Types of Penetration Testing we deliver

Web Application Penetration Testing

Authentication, access control between roles, injection, and the business logic specific to what your application does — tested by hand, not scanned.

Network Penetration Testing

External and internal infrastructure: exposed services, segmentation, privilege escalation, and lateral movement across trust boundaries.

API Penetration Testing

REST and GraphQL endpoints, broken object-level authorisation, mass assignment, rate limiting, and the authorisation gaps that only appear between endpoints.

Mobile Application Penetration Testing

Android and iOS binaries, local storage, certificate pinning, and the backend the app actually talks to.

Cloud Penetration Testing

AWS, Azure and GCP configuration, IAM role chains, exposed storage, and the paths from a low-privileged identity to data.

Wireless Security Assessment

Corporate Wi-Fi, guest network separation, rogue access points, and the segmentation that is usually assumed rather than verified.

Social Engineering & Phishing Simulation

Measured phishing campaigns against your own staff, with reporting rates and the training gap they expose.

Red Team Operations

A goal-driven, multi-vector engagement that tests detection and response, not just whether a vulnerability exists.

Source Code Review

Manual review of the code behind the application, finding the flaws that are invisible from the outside.

How we do it

  1. 1

    Scoping & rules of engagement

    We agree targets, timing, and constraints in writing, including any production-safety boundaries.

  2. 2

    Reconnaissance & mapping

    We enumerate the attack surface — hosts, services, applications, and trust relationships.

  3. 3

    Vulnerability discovery

    Combined automated tooling and deep manual testing to find and confirm real weaknesses.

  4. 4

    Exploitation & chaining

    We safely prove impact, chaining findings to demonstrate realistic business risk.

  5. 5

    Post-exploitation & reporting

    We document the path, capture evidence, and deliver prioritized remediation.

  6. 6

    Remediation retest

    We re-verify fixes so you can close findings with confidence.

Deliverables

  • Detailed technical report with reproduction steps
  • Executive summary for non-technical stakeholders

What Penetration Testing costs

A full manual penetration test is USD 1,500; a single web application starts at USD 399.

The figure depends on scope, so we quote one fixed price in writing before any work begins. These are the things that move it:

  • How many live hosts and applications are in scope — This is the main number. Ten hosts and one application is a different engagement from two hundred hosts across three sites, and the figure that matters is live hosts, not addresses owned.
  • Internal, external, or both — An external test works from the internet. An internal test assumes a foothold and asks how far it travels, which is a separate exercise with separate access arrangements.
  • How many user roles need separate testing — Authorisation testing multiplies with roles. It is the most common reason a scope grows after the first call.
  • Whether the environment is production — Production needs agreed windows, rollback plans and written approval for anything potentially disruptive. That is coordination time as well as testing time.
  • What the report has to satisfy — A report written for your developers and a report an ISO 27001 or SOC 2 auditor will accept are the same testing and different writing. We do the second by default.

One retest is included in the price, and a finding is closed only when we have verified the fix ourselves — not when it is reported as fixed. If a quote elsewhere looks materially cheaper, check whether it is a manual test or a scanner report, and whether a retest is in it at all.

Where we deliver Penetration Testing

We deliver penetration testing across Pakistan — Multan, Lahore, Karachi, Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, Peshawar and Quetta — and remotely for clients abroad. Our engineering office is in Multan, which makes us one of the few penetration testing providers headquartered in southern Punjab rather than serving it from Karachi or Lahore. Testing is delivered remotely by default; on-site work is available across Pakistan where scope requires it.

Frequently asked questions

A scan is automated and reports potential issues. A penetration test adds skilled manual analysis that confirms exploitability and chains findings to show real business impact.
Most tests run one to three weeks depending on scope and complexity. We confirm the timeline during scoping.
Yes. A remediation retest is included within the engagement window so you can close findings with verified evidence.
We test carefully and coordinate windows. Any potentially disruptive action requires your explicit written approval beforehand.
Our team holds OSCP, OSEP, CRTO, and GIAC certifications, backed by years of hands-on offensive experience.
A single web application starts at USD 399, and a full manual penetration test is USD 1,500. The figure depends on how many applications or hosts are in scope, how many user roles have to be tested separately, and whether an internal network is included. We quote one fixed price in writing before any work starts, so there is no hourly meter and no revised invoice at the end.
Yes. Our engineering office is in Multan, which makes us one of very few penetration testing providers headquartered in southern Punjab rather than serving it remotely from Karachi or Lahore. Testing itself is delivered remotely by default, so we work with clients in Lahore, Karachi, Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, Peshawar and Quetta on the same terms. On-site work is available anywhere in Pakistan where the scope needs it.
A report with an executive summary a non-technical director can act on, then every finding written up with its business impact, a CVSS score, the exact steps to reproduce it, the evidence, and a specific fix rather than a generic recommendation. Findings are ranked so you know what to deal with on Monday morning. You also receive a retest verification letter once the fixes are confirmed closed, and a debrief call with the engineers who did the testing.
At least once every twelve months, and again after any significant change: a new application, a major release, a cloud migration, or a change to how users authenticate. Testing once and filing the report is the common mistake, because the code that was tested is not the code running six months later. Clients who ship frequently usually move to a retainer with a smaller test each quarter.
Yes. PCI DSS requires annual penetration testing and testing after significant change. ISO 27001 and SOC 2 expect evidence of independent technical assessment. Banks, microfinance institutions and payment firms regulated by the State Bank of Pakistan are required to carry out periodic vulnerability assessment and penetration testing under its technology governance and risk framework. Our report states scope, dates, methodology, findings and retest results explicitly, so it can be handed to an auditor or a regulator as it is.
The target URLs or IP ranges, whether we are testing production or a staging copy, one test account for each user role so privilege boundaries can actually be checked, and a named technical contact who can answer a question within a day. We send a short scoping questionnaire that covers all of it, and the quote follows from your answers. Nothing else is needed from your team during the engagement.
We sign an NDA before scoping. Findings and evidence are held encrypted, shared only with the contacts you name, and deleted on request once the retest is closed. We do not publish client names, screenshots or findings as marketing material, and we do not reuse your data in any other engagement.
Grey box, in almost every case. A black box test gives the tester no credentials, which means most of the engagement is spent getting to where a real logged-in attacker already starts, and whole categories of flaw are never reached. Grey box gives us accounts for each role and finds the authorisation and business-logic problems that matter. White box adds source code and is worth it for a product you are about to launch. We will tell you which one fits rather than quoting the cheapest.
Yes. We test web applications, Android and iOS apps, REST and GraphQL APIs, internal and external networks, Active Directory, wireless networks, and cloud configuration in AWS, Azure and Google Cloud. Each has its own scoping questions and its own testing standard, so tell us what you have and we will tell you what the engagement looks like before you commit to anything.
If you hold customer data, take payments, or a client has asked you for a security report, then yes. Smaller scopes cost proportionally less and a single application starts at USD 399. The expensive version of this decision is waiting until an enterprise client makes a security report a condition of the contract and then having two weeks to produce one.
Yes. After the retest confirms the findings are closed, we issue a signed attestation letter stating what was tested, when, by which methodology, and that the identified issues were remediated and verified. That letter is what you send to a client, an insurer or a procurement team. We will not issue one before the retest, because a letter that certifies unfixed findings is worth nothing to whoever reads it.
Yes, and it is included rather than sold as a second project. Every finding ships with a specific fix, not a link to a generic advisory. Your developers can reach the tester who found the issue while they are fixing it, and the retest verifies the fix instead of taking your word for it. Where a fix needs an architectural change we say so plainly rather than suggesting a patch that will not hold.
No. A penetration test tries to find as many real weaknesses as possible inside an agreed scope, and you are told about all of them. A red team engagement picks one objective, reaches it however it can, and tests whether your people and tooling notice. Almost every organisation needs the penetration test first: red teaming measures detection, so it is only worth paying for once there is detection to measure.
