What is a pentest?

A pentest is a controlled test that simulates real attacks on systems, networks and applications, with the aim of revealing security flaws that could be exploited by cybercriminals.

More than simply finding vulnerabilities, our aim is to help your company correct them in a clear, practical and effective way.

LC SEC's pentest includes:

Realistic simulation of attacks
Technical and strategic risk assessment
Technical and executive report with remediation plan
Close support throughout the process

Who is pentest recommended for?

This service is essential for companies that:

Are in the process of adapting to LGPD, ISO 27001, PCI DSS or other standards
Are launching a new system, app or feature
Have already suffered attack attempts or want to prevent incidents
Need to prove their security maturity to customers or investors
You don't have an internal team dedicated to cybersecurity

If your company handles sensitive data, pentesting is a mandatory step to reduce real risks and strengthen your reputation.

We map out the assets to be tested and define clear objectives, based on the company's reality.

Performing the intrusion test

We simulate attacks with real techniques used by hackers, but in a totally controlled and secure way.

You receive a clear document detailing the vulnerabilities found, the level of risk and practical remediation guidelines.

1 - What is a Pentest and what is it for?

Pentest is a controlled intrusion test that simulates real cyber attacks in order to identify vulnerabilities in systems, networks and applications. It serves to detect security flaws before they are exploited by hackers, allowing the company to correct the problems and strengthen its digital protection.

2 - What are the types of Pentest

The main types of Pentest are

Network Pentest: assesses vulnerabilities in servers, firewalls and connected devices.
Web application pentest: focuses on websites, portals and browser-based systems.
Internal Pentest: simulates attacks coming from inside the organization, such as from malicious employees.
External Pentest: simulates attacks carried out from the Internet, as an external attacker would do.
API and microservices pentest: evaluates integration interfaces between systems.
Mobile Pentest: tests applications developed for smartphones and tablets.

The choice of type depends on the environment to be analyzed and the most critical risks for the business.

3 - How much does a Pentest cost?

The cost of a Pentest varies according to the scope of the project, the size of the infrastructure to be tested and the degree of technical complexity. Instead of generic packages, LC SEC offers customized proposals, always with a clear scope, concrete deliverables and a focus on real impact. Get in touch with our team to receive a quote tailored to your company's reality.

4 - How long does a Pentest last?

The average execution time for a Pentest varies between 5 and 15 working days, depending on the size of the environment and the depth of the analysis. Larger or more complex projects may require more time. Once the tests have been carried out, the technical report is delivered with defined deadlines, followed by support in correcting the faults.

5 - Does LCSEC Pentest meet the requirements of ISO 27001 and PCI DSS?

Yes. Our Pentest is structured based on the main security standards, such as ISO 27001, CIS Controls and PCI DSS. Reports and action plans are drawn up to support auditing, certification and compliance processes with the GDPR and other applicable standards.

6 - Is Pentest even suitable for companies with an antivirus and firewall?

Yes, antivirus and firewall tools are important, but they don't guarantee total protection. Pentest identifies flaws that often go unnoticed by automated systems, such as configuration errors, poorly defined accesses, authentication flaws or vulnerabilities in web applications.
