Execute →Your Perimeter Is a
Probability Game.
In modern infrastructure, "safe" is a temporary state. Attackers only need to be right once - you have to be right every single second.
Orphaned API Endpoints
Undocumented or deprecated APIs left exposed in production, often bypassing security controls entirely.
Subdomain Takeover
DNS records pointing to decommissioned services allow attackers to claim your subdomains and launch phishing attacks.
Broken Access Control
Improperly configured permissions that allow users to escalate privileges or access data outside their authorization scope.
Secret Leaks
Exposed API keys, tokens, and credentials in code repositories, logs, or misconfigured environment variables.
Testing Whether Your Defenses Can
Withstand Real-World Attacks.
Elite security researchers performing surgical attack simulations to identify critical vulnerabilities before they become catastrophic breaches.
Premium Defense Matrix.
Our methodology is rigorous, repeatable, and designed for zero disruption to production uptime.
Discovery & OSINT
External reconnaissance mapping your entire digital footprint - domains, subdomains, cloud assets, and exposed services.
Strategic Planning
Defining attack vectors and custom payloads specifically tailored to your application stack and business logic.
Active Exploitation
Controlled, surgical exploitation of identified weaknesses to prove impact without damaging system integrity.
Analysis & Reporting
Synthesis of findings into high-impact documentation with clear business-context remediation steps.
Verification Scan
Complete follow-on test of all identified vulnerabilities once your team has implemented fixes.
"StartupHakk's process was invisible to our users, yet they found vulnerabilities that our internal team missed entirely."
SOC / OWASP
Compliance Services.
Our scanners and manual pen-testers are specifically trained to identify and mitigate the most critical web application risks defined by the OWASP foundation, mapped directly to SOC 2 controls.
OWASP Top 10 Assessment
Comprehensive testing against the OWASP Top 10 with customized security risks and detailed remediation guidance.
SOC 2 Compliance Testing
Thorough review of your controls for Security, Availability, Processing Integrity, Confidentiality, and Privacy.
Application Security Testing
End-to-end application security testing including SAST, DAST, and manual code review for security vulnerabilities.
API Security Assessment
API security testing focusing on authentication, authorization, input validation, and data protection mechanisms.
Compliance Reporting
Detailed compliance reports with executive summaries, technical findings, and remediation roadmaps.
Continuous Monitoring
Ongoing compliance monitoring and assessment to maintain security posture and regulatory requirements.
Compliance Standards We Test.
Every engagement maps back to the frameworks your customers and auditors actually check.
Web Application Core Flaws
Vulnerability assessment for critical web application flaws including XSS, SQLi, CSRF, insecure forms, and broken access control.
API Security Assessment
Focused assessment of REST & GraphQL APIs for authentication bypass, broken object level authorization, and excessive data exposure.
HTTP & TLS Hardening
Review of HTTP security headers, TLS configuration, certificate management, and protocol enforcement across all endpoints.
Attack Surface Visibility
Comprehensive mapping of your external attack surface - subdomains, DNS records, exposed services, cloud configurations, and shadow IT.
Exposed Service & Log Enrichment
Discovery of exposed services, misconfigured firewalls, and unmonitored endpoints with structured logging recommendations.
SOC Reporting & Alignment
Executive-level SOC 2 readiness assessments with gap analysis, control mapping to frameworks, and audit preparation support.
