What makes Redbot Security different from automated security vendors?
Automated scanners can identify known issues, but they often generate false positives and miss complex attack paths. Redbot Security performs hands-on testing led by senior engineers to validate what is actually exploitable, demonstrate impact with proof-of-concept evidence, and provide clearer remediation guidance.
What types of security testing does Redbot Security provide?
Redbot Security provides external, internal, wireless, web application, mobile, API, cloud, ICS / SCADA, social engineering, advanced red team testing, and validated vulnerability management through XKalibr.
Does Redbot Security perform manual penetration testing?
Yes. Redbot Security focuses on manual, senior-led penetration testing designed to identify what is actually exploitable in an environment rather than relying only on scanner output or checklist-based testing.
Does Redbot Security provide social engineering assessments?
Yes. Redbot Security provides both electronic and physical social engineering assessments designed to simulate how attackers exploit trust, processes, and human behavior to gain access or sensitive information.
Does Redbot Security test critical infrastructure and ICS / SCADA environments?
Yes. Redbot Security performs industrial security testing for ICS / SCADA environments including water, electric, manufacturing, transportation, and other operational environments, with a strong focus on controlled testing and operational safety.
What testing frameworks does Redbot Security follow?
Redbot Security’s methodology draws from recognized industry frameworks and guidance including NIST SP 800-115, PTES, OSSTMM, OWASP guidance, the PCI penetration testing guide, and MITRE ATT&CK, while tailoring each engagement to the client’s environment and objectives.
How long does a penetration testing engagement take?
Engagement timelines vary based on scope, complexity, and testing depth. Redbot Security uses discovery and scoping to define the number of assets, applications, attack surfaces, objectives, and timelines before scheduling the engagement.
How much does penetration testing cost?
Pricing depends on what is being tested, how much is in scope, and the depth of testing required. Redbot Security uses a discovery call and environment review to define scope, timeline, and objectives before providing pricing guidance.
What deliverables will I receive?
Deliverables typically include an executive summary, technical findings with proof-of-concept evidence, prioritized remediation guidance, and optional readout or workshop support to help stakeholders understand the results and next steps.
Does Redbot Security share sample reports?
Yes. Redbot Security can share a sample report with qualified prospective clients who sign a mutual NDA and have a valid project opportunity.
Can Redbot Security help support compliance requirements?
Yes. Redbot Security’s reporting and testing approach can support programs related to PCI DSS, HIPAA, ISO 27001, SOC 2, and other frameworks by helping organizations validate security controls, document risk, and prepare for audit or compliance efforts.
How does Redbot Security protect confidentiality?
Redbot Security uses mutual NDAs, controlled data handling practices, encrypted data protection, and restricted access to reports and testing data so only authorized stakeholders can review engagement materials.
