📥Consultation Requests

What is included, and how to request a consultation.

One of the key advantages of Penetration Testing as a Service (PTaaS) with Software Secured is the consultation hours with a team of skilled professionals whenever you require security expertise. Our clients leverage their consulting hours in a variety of ways to manage risk; here are the most common:

• Actionable and comprehensive advice on vulnerability mitigation resulting from Software Secured’s pentests.

• Advice on security controls for new features being designed or considered for the product roadmap.

• Education on how to proactively threat model as a part of your SDLC.

• Analysis of third-party vulnerability reports (e.g. bug bounties, external researchers) or disclosures, including validation and a calibrated risk assessment.

• Information and suggestions on implementing effective, secure engineering practices and policies based on your attack surface and business goals.

• Quickly identifying possible threats or exposures to new or emerging vulnerabilities.

The potential options for utilizing consulting hours are flexible with the following basic parameters:

• The topics are directly tied to the security of the systems we tested. While our team knows a lot about security and security implications of various subjects, they are not suited to provide operational assistance with tasks usually performed by Development, DevOps, IT, QA, Compliance Managers, etc. (ask our sales and partnership team for appropriate referrals).

• Consulting hours cannot be substituted for testing or training hours.
