Advisory service

Penetration Testing & Security Checks.

Verifiable technical testing by certified testers (OSCP-class). From free scoping to the closing debrief — with a report your management can actually use.

A pen test report that is just scanner output helps no one. We test with intent, document every finding with reproduction steps and a concrete recommendation — and translate the result into decisions: what needs fixing now, what can wait, what is noise.

What we test

  • Web applications — authenticated and unauthenticated, role-based
  • APIs — REST/GraphQL, auth logic, authorisation boundaries
  • Mobile apps — iOS and Android
  • External infrastructure — your attack surface as seen from the internet
  • Internal infrastructure & Active Directory — what an attacker reaches after the first foothold
  • Microsoft 365 / Azure security check — configuration review of Entra ID, Exchange Online, Defender, Azure baseline hardening against CIS benchmarks
  • Re-tests after remediation — to complete the evidence trail

How we run it

01

Scoping

Free 30-minute call. Define targets, systems, and the test window.

02

Fixed-price offer

Clear scope, clear price. No effort-based surprises.

03

Test

Executed in the agreed window by certified testers (OSCP-class).

04

Report & debrief

Technical report, management summary, closing debrief with prioritisation.

What you get

  • Technical report: findings with CVSS rating, reproduction steps, and concrete remediation guidance
  • Management summary written for executives and customers (available in German)
  • Closing debrief with prioritisation: fix now, schedule, accept
  • On request, a test attestation for customers and insurers
  • Re-test after remediation with updated evidence

Why this matters

Customers, insurers, and regulators increasingly ask for evidence of regular technical testing. A properly scoped pen test provides that evidence — and finds the gaps that configuration reviews and process audits structurally cannot see.

Questions we get

What does a penetration test cost?

Fixed price after free scoping. A 30-minute call clarifies scope and test depth — you then receive a binding fixed-price offer with no effort-based risk.

Who performs the test?

Certified penetration testers of OSCP-class, under Cortavion contract, NDA, and quality assurance. Scoping, interpretation of results, and your point of contact are Cortavion throughout.

How is this different from a security assessment?

A pen test actively attacks a defined boundary and proves concrete exploitability. An assessment reviews the entire defence model across technology, processes, and team. The two complement each other — clients often combine an external pen test with a Microsoft 365 check.

Will the test disrupt operations?

Test windows and escalation paths are agreed in advance. Destructive tests happen only with explicit approval; critical findings are reported immediately, not just in the final report.
