Not Sure If a Penetration Test Is the Right First Step?

Many organizations know they need to improve security but aren't sure where to begin.

If you're preparing for a banking partner review, enterprise customer assessment, SOC 2, PCI DSS, or simply want to understand your external exposure, start with the CyberCile Attack Surface Snapshot.

In just five business days, you'll gain the evidence needed to determine whether a penetration test or another security initiative is the right next investment.

How We Work

Identify risks. Meet compliance. Prove your security.

Find and fix critical vulnerabilities

Go beyond the OWASP Top 10. Our manual, expert-led approach uncovers complex business logic flaws and vulnerabilities that automated scanners miss, allowing you to reduce the attack surface of your platforms.

Create a robust cybersecurity posture

Experience an advanced cyber attack that rigorously tests the security measures you have in place. Find and fix business-critical issues and build a thick armor against real-world adversaries.

 

 

Meet compliance and banking requirements

Our reports are written for clarity, usability, and defensibility. They are suitable for banking partner reviews, vendor risk assessments, M&A due diligence, and regulatory requirements such as SOC 2, PCI DSS, and ISO 27001.

Get actionable advice from experts

To help you understand your exposure, we provide a clear description of discovered vulnerabilities, an assessment of the business impact, and prioritized remediation guidance so your team can apply effective fixes immediately.

Security doesn't stop after the pentest.

For organizations that need more than an annual snapshot, the CyberCile Continuous Security Program™ provides year-round offensive security validation.

Foundation™

Quarterly vulnerability validation, continuous attack surface monitoring, and an annual manual penetration test. Perfect for growing MSBs establishing a proactive program.

Command™

Two manual penetration tests per year, monthly security reviews, and dedicated compliance evidence support for banking partner and customer security reviews.

Dominance™

Quarterly manual penetration testing, red team exercises, social engineering assessments, and board-level reporting for high-growth financial organizations.

About CyberCile

A boutique firm built for financial services

CyberCile is a pure-play boutique penetration testing provider founded by experienced offensive security consultants. We focus exclusively on offensive cyber because we believe the best way to secure a business that moves money is by simulating a real-world attack.

Certified Cybersecurity Experts

Our team holds industry-leading offensive security certifications, including:

CEH · OSCP · CRTO · CRTP · CPTS · PNPT · CISSP

Talk the talk. Walk the walk.

Your trust is precious to us. We operate with strict confidentiality and strong security processes to ensure your data and findings are protected at all times.

Questions We Hear Before Every Engagement

We already have an IT provider / MSP. Do we need this?

Yes and your MSP will thank you. CyberCile validates your existing
IT investments independently. We don’t replace your MSP; we provide the independent third-party verification that your MSP
cannot provide for itself. No one should audit their own work.

We’re a small team. Will this disrupt operations?

No. Every engagement is scoped and scheduled around your operational
calendar. We coordinate testing windows to avoid peak transaction periods. Most clients report zero operational disruption.

We passed our last compliance audit. Aren’t we covered?

Passing a compliance audit and being secure are not the same
thing. Audits verify that controls exist. Penetration testing verifies that those controls actually work under real-world attack conditions. The organizations that get breached are often the ones that just passed their last audit.

How is this different from a one-time pentest?

A one-time pentest tells you what was vulnerable on the day of the test. A
CyberCile subscription tells you what’s vulnerable right now continuously. New vulnerabilities are introduced every time code is deployed, systems are updated, or vendors change. Continuous validation catches what annual testing misses.

What if we can’t afford the higher tiers right now?”

Start with Foundation™ at $797/month. It includes external attack surface
monitoring, quarterly validation, and an annual penetration test more than most MSBs have today. Upgrade to Command™
when you’re ready for continuous validation and compliance evidence support.

Who are the pentesters?

Our assessments are performed by experienced US-based security professionals who conduct remote investigations, review documentation, and contribute to the presentation of findings in the report.

Our team holds industry-leading credentials, including OSCP+, OSCP, PWPP, and CEH.

What deliverables come with a pentest?

Each engagement includes documentation designed for external review and executive oversight, including:

  • Independent third-party penetration testing results
  • Prioritized findings tied to business impact
  • Executive-level summaries suitable for boards and auditors
  • Audit-ready documentation
  • Clear explanation of testing methodology
  • Optional retesting to validate remediation

Reports are written for clarity, usability, and defensibility — not technical audiences alone.

 


How quickly can we get started?

Most clients are onboarded within 5‒7 business days of signing. Your first exposure
assessment begins in week one.

Can I see what a report looks like before committing?

Report · H1 2026 Edition

We pentested MSBs, FinTechs, and payment platforms. Then we ranked what attackers find first.

Real engagements. Real attack paths. Every finding pulled from live penetration tests against organizations that move money.
 Most vulnerability lists are theoretical. This one isn't. The CyberCile Top 10 is built from actual findings across MSB, FinTech, and payment platform engagements ranked by how often they appear, how easily they chain into a breach, and how much damage they cause when exploited.
