Cyberleaf's technical cybersecurity services simulate real-world attack scenarios against your critical assets to identify exploitable vulnerabilities, validate your security controls, and strengthen your defenses. From comprehensive penetration testing and red team exercises to digital forensics and incident response (DFIR), our certified security professionals give you the attacker's perspective so you can close gaps before they're exploite.

The vulnerabilities that lead to breaches aren't exotic zero-days, they're the misconfigured firewall rule that's been open for months, the unpatched server your team forgot about, the overprivileged service account no one reviewed, the cloud storage bucket quietly exposed to the internet. These gaps already exist in most environments.
Annual compliance scans and automated tools aren't enough to surface these risks. Closing the gaps that lead to breaches requires the same approach attackers use: skilled, manual, adversarial testing against your real environment.
Cyberleaf's penetration testing and technical services are built to find these gaps before they're exploited. We simulate real-world attack scenarios, probing your networks, applications, people, and processes, to deliver actionable findings that show you what's exposed, what's at risk, and how to fix it.

Every Cyberleaf penetration testing and technical services engagement follows a structured methodology designed to deliver actionable results—not just a list of CVEs. We scope to your environment, test against real-world attack scenarios, and deliver findings your team can act on immediately.
Network penetration testing is the foundation of any offensive security program. Cyberleaf evaluates your internal and external infrastructure for exploitable vulnerabilities, including misconfigured firewalls, unpatched systems, weak authentication, and lateral movement paths an attacker could use to escalate access.
EXTERNAL TESTING
Targets your public-facing attack surface: internet-exposed IPs, DNS records, VPN gateways, web servers, and email infrastructure. Identifies what an attacker can see and exploit from the outside.
INTERNAL TESTING
Simulates a threat actor who has gained a foothold inside your network. Tests segmentation, privilege escalation, Active Directory security, and access paths to sensitive data.
The question red teaming answers: If a sophisticated attacker targeted your organization today, would your security team detect them? How far could they get before someone noticed? Red team results reveal your true detection and response capability, the metrics that matter most when a real attack occurs.
SOCIAL ENGINEERING
Targeted phishing, vishing, pretexting, and physical access attempts.
NETWORK EXPLOITATION
Privilege escalation, persistence, lateral movement, and data exfiltration.
DETECTION TESTING
Evaluate whether your SOC and security tools identify and respond to the intrusion.
Vulnerability scanning is the first line of defense in understanding your exposure. Cyberleaf conducts automated and analyst-validated scans across your environments to identify known vulnerabilities, missing patches, and insecure configurations.
Our security analysts review and contextualize every finding, prioritize vulnerabilities based on exploitability and business impact, and provide clear remediation guidance. We don't hand over a raw report—we tell you what matters, what to fix first, and how.
For organizations with ongoing needs, we integrate scanning into a continuous monitoring program that tracks open and resolved vulnerabilities over time through our GRC platform.
Web applications are among the most commonly targeted assets in any organization's attack surface. Cyberleaf's web app pen testing evaluates your customer-facing and internal applications for critical vulnerabilities that automated scanners typically miss. We follow the OWASP Testing Guide for comprehensive coverage.
✓SQL injection & command injection
✓Cross-site scripting (XSS)
✓Broken authentication & session management
✓Insecure API endpoints
✓Business logic flaws
✓Access control & privilege escalation
✓Server misconfiguration
✓Proof-of-concept for every finding
Technology alone cannot prevent a breach if your employees are vulnerable to social engineering. Cyberleaf designs and executes realistic campaigns to test your organization's human defenses and security awareness program effectiveness.
PHISHING SIMULATIONS
Targeted email campaigns that mirror real-world attacker techniques
VISHING
Voice-based pretexting calls to test employee verification procedures
PHYSICAL TESTING
Badge cloning, tailgating, and on-site access attempts
ACTIONABLE RESULTS
Identify which groups are most susceptible and where training needs reinforcement
Cyberleaf assesses wireless configurations for rogue access points, weak encryption, and unauthorized devices. We evaluate mobile applications and internet-connected devices for vulnerabilities that could give an attacker a path into your broader environment, the entry points most organizations forget to test.
ACTIVE INCIDENT RESPONSE
Initial triage and containment, forensic evidence collection and chain-of-custody preservation, malware analysis, root cause determination, and post-incident remediation guidance. Ransomware, insider threats, BEC, regulatory notifications — we've handled it all.
IR RETAINER AGREEMENTS
Guaranteed priority response times and pre-established protocols — so when the call comes, we act immediately. Unused retainer hours can be applied to proactive services like tabletop exercises and IR readiness assessments.
Many compliance frameworks require regular penetration testing and vulnerability assessments. Cyberleaf's testing services satisfy these mandates with reporting that maps findings directly to the controls your auditors need to see while genuinely reducing risk.

Penetration testing (also called pen testing or ethical hacking) is a controlled, authorized simulation of a cyberattack against your systems, networks, or applications. Every engagement is governed by a clearly defined Rules of Engagement (RoE) document that establishes scope, authorization, testing windows, data handling protocols, escalation procedures, and system protection safeguards. The goal is to identify exploitable vulnerabilities before a real attacker does. Unlike automated vulnerability scanning, penetration testing involves manual exploitation by skilled security professionals who think and act like real adversaries, testing not just whether a vulnerability exists, but whether it can actually be exploited to compromise your environment.
A penetration test focuses on identifying as many vulnerabilities as possible within a defined scope, typically specific systems or network segments, over a set timeframe. A red team exercise simulates a full adversary campaign with broader scope and fewer constraints, testing your organization's detection and response capabilities across people, processes, and technology. Red teaming answers the question: "If a sophisticated attacker targeted us, would we catch them?"
At minimum, most compliance frameworks require annual penetration testing. However, best practice is to test more frequently, especially after major infrastructure changes, application deployments, or mergers and acquisitions. Many Cyberleaf clients conduct quarterly vulnerability scans combined with annual or semi-annual penetration tests to maintain continuous visibility into their security posture.
Cyberleaf works closely with your team during the scoping phase to define rules of engagement, testing windows, and out-of-scope systems to minimize any risk of disruption. Our penetration testers are experienced professionals who understand production environments. In the rare event that a test could cause instability, we coordinate with your operations team in advance and have rollback procedures in place.
Yes. Cyberleaf offers incident response retainer agreements that guarantee priority response times and pre-established engagement protocols. With a retainer in place, your organization has immediate access to our DFIR team when an incident occurs, eliminating the delays of scoping and contracting during a crisis. Retainer hours can also be applied to proactive services like tabletop exercises and IR readiness assessments when not needed for active incidents.
