External Exposure Audit Sprint
A timeboxed external attack surface assessment that identifies exposed internet-facing assets, misconfigurations, and security risks — with prioritized findings, evidence, and a remediation roadmap delivered in 3–5 business days.
Typical range: $2,500–$7,500 depending on scope. Single-domain engagements start at $2,500.
Is this right for you?
This assessment is designed for organizations that need clarity on their external exposure without the complexity of a full penetration test.
Designed for
- Organizations preparing for compliance audits (SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI)
- Engineering teams launching new public-facing infrastructure
- Companies needing external validation before a funding round
- IT leaders who want a second opinion on their security posture
- Teams that need documentation for leadership or board reporting
Not designed for
- Internal network penetration testing
- Continuous monitoring or managed security services
- Urgent breach response or incident investigation
- Social engineering or phishing simulations
- Organizations without clear asset ownership
What's included
Clear deliverables with fixed scope. No surprises.
Assessment scope
- Authorized domains, subdomains, and public-facing assets
- Exposure mapping: services, ports, misconfigurations
- Validation to reduce false positives
- Risk prioritization based on practical impact
Your deliverables
- Attack surface inventory with exposure notes
- Prioritized findings with evidence (screenshots, proof)
- Quick wins checklist (48–72 hour fixes)
- 30-day remediation roadmap
- Verification steps to confirm each fix
What this assessment does not include
- Internal network testing or authenticated scanning
- Exploitation of discovered vulnerabilities
- Social engineering or phishing simulations
- Ongoing monitoring or incident response
Need deeper testing? This sprint becomes the scoping foundation for a broader penetration test.
How it works
A structured 4-phase process delivered in 3–5 business days.
Scope Confirmation
We confirm authorized targets and sign the scope agreement. Discovery begins.
Validation
Findings are validated, deduplicated, and mapped to business-risk context.
Prioritization
Results ranked by severity and effort. Quick wins separated from strategic projects.
Delivery
Final report delivered, with an optional 30-minute findings review call.
Common questions
Will this trigger our security monitoring?
Our assessment uses standard external reconnaissance techniques (DNS, port scanning, SSL/TLS enumeration). If your SOC alerts on external scans, notify them in advance — we can coordinate timing and provide source IPs.
Do you need credentials or internal access?
No. This engagement is external-only. If findings indicate a need for authenticated testing, we'll propose a separate engagement.
What if we're not ready to fix everything immediately?
The remediation roadmap separates quick wins (48–72 hours) from strategic projects (30+ days). You prioritize based on your resources.
What happens if you find something critical?
We notify you immediately via secure channel and pause further testing if needed. Critical findings are flagged in the report with recommended immediate actions.
