Audit security testing

Audit-friendly technical evidence, fast.

A tightly scoped security test that gives you the technical evidence SOC 2 and customer security reviews ask for, without the open-ended scope that blows up the price.

Not sure you’re ready? A Pentest Readiness Assessment (from $2,000, credited toward this test) sorts access and scope and clears the obvious issues first, so the test goes deeper.   Why the price holds: each test is capped to a defined number of apps, APIs, and roles with one retest window. Broader compliance work (evidence collection, PCI CDE scoping, HIPAA risk analysis, remediation management) is quoted separately or handled by Operative.
FAQ

Common questions.

How much does a SOC 2 pentest cost?

Our Audit Security Test is from $3,500, fixed-fee for one app or API. Broader scope (app + API, admin and roles) is scoped on a call. Both are tightly scoped so the price holds.

What’s included, and what isn’t?

Included: baseline scans, active validation, human-reviewed findings, an audit-friendly report, and one retest. Not included: full evidence collection, framework readiness, policy writing, or remediation project management. That program work is run by Operative and priced separately.

Is this enough for SOC 2 or a customer security review?

For the technical-testing requirement, yes: it produces audit-friendly evidence for the app or API in scope. It does not make your whole compliance program audit-ready; we’re careful not to imply that.

How fast is it?

It targets roughly a 5-day turnaround once scope and access are set. Urgent timelines can be discussed.
