Security services · Authorized engagements

Find the gaps
before attackers do.

CYFARE delivers offensive testing and defensive engineering for teams that need evidence, not assumptions. Every engagement is scoped in writing and run by a named lead from first call to retest.

Written authorization and an agreed scope are required before any testing begins.

Capabilities

Four ways we reduce risk

Start with one service or combine them into a single programme. Each track produces standalone evidence and hands over cleanly to your engineering team.

01

Vulnerability Assessment

A structured, evidence-led review of your exposed estate. We map what is actually reachable, validate the findings, and remove scanner noise so remediation starts with the risks that matter.

In scope

  • External and internal asset discovery
  • Authenticated and unauthenticated checks
  • CVSS scoring with business-context triage
  • Prioritised remediation roadmap and rescan

A ranked, de-duplicated view of your exposure — not a raw scanner dump.

02

Penetration Testing

Goal-driven manual testing that chains weaknesses the way a real adversary would. Every action stays inside an agreed scope, window and set of stop conditions.

In scope

  • Web applications, APIs and thick clients
  • External and internal network paths
  • Authentication, authorization and business-logic abuse
  • Clear reproduction steps and impact narrative

Findings you can reproduce, with the attack path and business impact spelled out.

03

Secure Code Review

Line-level review of the code that faces users and sensitive data. We combine manual inspection with SAST correlation to find the issues that scanners miss.

In scope

  • Manual review plus SAST correlation
  • OWASP ASVS and Top 10 coverage
  • Secrets, crypto, authn/authz and injection paths
  • Framework-aware fix guidance for your stack

The exact file, flow and a safe replacement pattern for every confirmed issue.

04

Network & Cloud Security

Architecture and configuration review across your network edge and cloud accounts. We look for the paths, identities and defaults that turn a small mistake into a full compromise.

In scope

  • Segmentation, firewall and remote-access review
  • IAM, storage, key and logging posture
  • TLS, exposure and hardening baselines
  • Zero-trust and incident-readiness recommendations

A prioritised hardening plan mapped to the controls that reduce real risk.

How it runs

A controlled, four-stage engagement

No open-ended testing. Each stage has an owner, a deliverable and a clear point where your team can pause or redirect the work.

  1. 01

    Scope

    Define assets, rules of engagement, testing windows and what success looks like for your team.

  2. 02

    Assess

    Manual testing and analysis, with findings validated as they are discovered — not at the end.

  3. 03

    Report

    Evidence, severity, business impact and concrete fixes, written for both engineers and leadership.

  4. 04

    Verify

    A retest window confirms that fixes actually close the issues we reported.

What you receive

Evidence you can act on

Reports are written for two audiences: engineers get the reproduction detail and fix guidance they need, while leadership gets the business impact and a clear priority order.

  • Written rules of engagement and a named engagement lead
  • Reproducible findings with evidence and severity ratings
  • Fix guidance that fits your stack and delivery workflow
  • A retest window to confirm remediation
