What Is Offensive Security & Testing?

CyberCile’s Offensive Security & Testing is a proactive service suite that emulates real attack tactics across your people, systems, and networks. We help you identify risks, remediate vulnerabilities, and prioritize security investments before an adversary does.

Why Financial Firms Need This

  • High-stakes attacks: Financial institutions are prime targets for sophisticated exploits, business logic abuse, insider threats, and advanced persistent threat campaigns.
  • Regulatory & compliance exposure: A breach can trigger audits, fines, and loss of trust from regulators, customers, and partners.
  • Defensive gaps: Many firms focus on reactive measures; but without adversarial testing, latent vulnerabilities remain.

What We Test

We offer a full spectrum of offensive security services, customized to your environment:

  • Penetration Testing  Simulating attacks against your infrastructure, applications, and systems to find real exploitable vulnerabilities.
  • Red Teaming / Adversary Simulation  Going beyond just technical tests to mimic the behaviors of real threat actors, testing human, process, and physical security
  • Vulnerability Assessments & Ethical Hacking  More frequent scans and tests to identify exposures before they become incidents.

We tailor these tests to your environment, threat landscape, and regulatory requirements.

Our Penetration Testing Services

1. Web Application Penetration Testing

Your web applications are the public face of your business  and a favorite target for attackers.

We conduct in-depth, manual web application testing that goes far beyond the OWASP Top 10, exposing vulnerabilities like authentication flaws, logic bypasses, and chained exploits that automated tools overlook.

Ideal for: Banking portals, customer dashboards, trading platforms, and payment interfaces.

2. API Penetration Testing

APIs power modern financial operations — but a single misconfiguration can expose sensitive data.

Our testers analyze your APIs for improper access control, insecure authentication, and data exposure risks. We validate tokens, endpoints, and integration flows to ensure that transactions and client data remain protected.

Ideal for: Fintech integrations, payment processors, and money-transfer services.

3. Mobile Application Penetration Testing

Mobile apps often store and process personal and financial data that attackers covet.

CyberCile’s mobile testing uncovers insecure data storage, weak encryption, reverse-engineering flaws, and business-logic abuse on both iOS and Android platforms.

Ideal for: Mobile banking, wallet apps, and customer service portals.

4. Network & Infrastructure Penetration Testing

A strong network is your first line of defense  until an attacker finds a weak entry point.

We identify vulnerabilities in internal and external networks, firewalls, VPNs, and servers through controlled exploitation. Our team assesses both traditional and hybrid cloud infrastructures to ensure resilience against real-world attacks.

Ideal for: Financial networks, on-prem data centers, hybrid and remote work environments.

5. Cloud Security Penetration Testing

Cloud adoption brings agility  and new attack surfaces.

We test your AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud configurations for privilege escalation, exposed assets, misconfigured permissions, and weak identity controls.

CyberCile validates that your cloud workloads meet both security and compliance requirements under PCI, SOC 2, FFIEC, and GLBA.

Ideal for: Cloud-native financial applications, data storage, and compliance workloads.

6. AI / ML Application Security Testing

As financial firms integrate machine learning for fraud detection and analytics, adversaries exploit algorithmic weaknesses and data pipelines.

Our AI/ML penetration testing examines model tampering, data poisoning, and inference attacks, ensuring your predictive systems remain trustworthy and secure.

Ideal for: Fintechs, credit-risk engines, and fraud-detection platforms.

7. SaaS Penetration Testing

Your SaaS platforms hold confidential data  from CRM to accounting systems.

We test third-party SaaS environments for misconfigurations, insecure integrations, and unauthorized data exposure. CyberCile validates identity federation, multi-tenant segregation, and application controls to protect business continuity.

Ideal for: Microsoft 365, Salesforce, QuickBooks Online, and industry-specific SaaS apps.

Our Process (Step-by-Step)

Phase

What We Do

01. Scoping & Discovery

We map your app, APIs, data flows, user roles, session paths, and business rules. We identify high-value endpoints and privilege boundaries.

02. Automated + Manual Testing

We run scanning, fuzzing, static analysis, and then pivot into manual abuse-case design (including broken access control, SQLi, logic, insecure deserialization, etc.).

03. Exploitation & Proof

When we find a vulnerability, we chain, escalate, and replicate it in a controlled environment — proving business impact, not theoretical risk.

04. Reporting & Prioritized Remediation

You receive an executive summary + technical details + remediation steps prioritized by risk and compliance value.

05. Retesting & Validation

After fixes, we revalidate to ensure the issues are closed and haven’t regressed.

Challenge & Solution

Challenge
Attackers don’t announce when they’ll strike. Hidden weaknesses, architecture blind spots, or overlooked controls leave financial firms dangerously exposed.

Solution
We think like attackers, uncover what’s hiding in plain sight, and give you the tools to fix and defend.

Outcome You Can Expect

  • Risk reduction Attack surfaces shrink, exposures are patched before exploitation.
  • Confidence under scrutiny You’ll be better prepared for audits, exams, or regulatory checks.
  • Stronger defenses over time Learn from testing, adapt controls, and build resilience.
  • Clear roadmaps Prioritized remediation plans guide your cybersecurity investment.

Don’t leave your web and API security to luck.
