Penetration Testing in
Northern Virginia

Who We Work With in Northern Virginia

Our NoVA clients are mostly in these areas:

• Defense Contractors: CMMC Level 1-3 compliance, DFARS requirements, and facility security assessments
• SaaS and Cloud Companies: Web app testing, API endpoint security, cloud infrastructure review across AWS, Azure, and GCP, plus validating that customer data is actually isolated
• Consulting Firms: Client data protection, remote access and VPN testing, and checking whether that laptop policy is enforced or just written down
• Tech Startups: Security validation for investor due diligence and building compliance documentation before you actually need it
• Managed Service Providers: If your clients trust you with their infrastructure, you need to prove it's secure. We test from the attacker's perspective.
• IT and Communications Companies: Network security, platform assessments, and compliance reporting for your own operations

Why NoVA Security Matters Right Now

The Northern Virginia region has some specific pressures that make pentesting less optional than it used to be:

• CMMC and NIST compliance are non-negotiable for defense work
• SaaS companies sitting on customer data are high-value targets
• Investors are asking for pentest reports during due diligence
• Cyber insurance carriers want evidence of testing before they'll write a policy
• Your competitors are getting tested. Clients notice who isn't.

What We Actually Test

Every engagement is different, but here's what we commonly cover for Northern Virginia companies:

• External network recon and attack surface mapping
• Web application and API security testing
• Cloud infrastructure config review and penetration testing
• Internal network assessments and privilege escalation
• Remote access and VPN security
• Social engineering if that's in scope
• Reports built for CMMC auditors, investors, or insurance carriers, depending on who's asking

How Engagements Work

Simple process, no fluff:

• Custom proposals scoped to your environment and compliance needs
• 5-day turnaround from testing start to final report
• CMMC-ready documentation for contractor submissions and audits
• Investor-ready reporting if you're raising capital or going through due diligence
• Direct consultant access throughout the engagement, no account managers in between

We're based right across the Potomac in Maryland. If your Northern Virginia company needs a pentest for compliance, an investor requirement, or just to see where you actually stand, send us an email and we'll put together a proposal.
